AlisterSwift

Overview

Alister allows to manage the content of any UITableView or UICollectionView. The general idea is provide a layer that synchronizes data with the cell appearance for such operations like adding, moving, deleting and reordering. Alister automatically handle UITableView and UICollectionView data source and delegates protocols and you can override them by subclassing from base controllers.

Features

• Works with UITableView and UICollectionView
• Supports all operations for sections and rows such as Insert, Delete, Move, Reload
• Supports UISearchBar and provide search predicate
• Supports custom header and footer views
• Provides keyboard handling
• Provides bottom sticked footer as part of ANTableView

Usage

Initialize list controller

private let controller: TableController
...
init() {
	controller = TableController(tableView: tableView)
	super.init(nibName: nil, bundle: nil)
}

Register cells, headers and footers

controller.configureCells { (config) in
	config.register(cell: CarCell.self, for: CarCellViewModel.self)
	config.register(footer: CarsTableHeaderFooter.self, for: CarsTableHeaderFooterVM.self)
	config.register(header: CarsTableHeaderFooter.self, for: CarsTableHeaderFooterVM.self)
}

Add models to storage

controller.storage.update { [unowned self] (update) in

	// Adding rows to the table
	update.add(modelsSection1)
	update.add(modelsSection2, to: 1)

	// Adding header and footer to some sections
	update.update(headerModel: CarsTableHeaderFooterVM(title: "Section 0 Header"), section: 0)
	update.update(headerModel: CarsTableHeaderFooterVM(title: "Section 1 Header"), section: 1)
	update.update(footerModel: CarsTableHeaderFooterVM(title: "Section 1 Footer"), section: 1)
}

Add Searchbar

controller.attachSearchBar(searchBar)

and that's it!

Handle selection

Option 1: ViewModel style

model.selection = {
	self.showAlert(title: model.alertTitle)
}

Option 2: Controller style

tableController.selection = { viewModel, indexPath in
	...
}
