AdvancedList
This package provides a wrapper view around the SwiftUI List view
which adds pagination (through my ListPagination package) and an empty, error and loading state including a corresponding view.
📦
Installation
Add this Swift package in Xcode using its Github repository url. (File > Swift Packages > Add Package Dependency...)
🚀
How to use
The AdvancedList
view is similar to the List
and ForEach
views. You have to pass data (RandomAccessCollection
) and a view provider ((Data.Element) -> some View
) to the initializer. In addition to the List
view the AdvancedList
expects a list state and corresponding views. Modify your data anytime or hide an item through the content block if you like. The view is updated automatically
import AdvancedList
@State private var listState: ListState = .items
AdvancedList(yourData, content: { item in
Text("Item")
}, listState: listState, emptyStateView: {
Text("No data")
}, errorStateView: { error in
Text(error.localizedDescription)
.lineLimit(nil)
}, loadingStateView: {
Text("Loading ...")
})
🆕
Custom List view
Starting from version 6.0.0
you can use a custom list view instead of the SwiftUI
List
used under the hood. As an example you can now easily use the LazyVStack introduced in iOS 14 if needed.
Upgrade from version 5.0.0
without breaking anything. Simply add the listView parameter after the upgrade:
AdvancedList(yourData, listView: { rows in
if #available(iOS 14, macOS 11, *) {
ScrollView {
LazyVStack(alignment: .leading, content: rows)
.padding()
}
} else {
List(content: rows)
}
}, content: { item in
Text("Item")
}, listState: listState, emptyStateView: {
Text("No data")
}, errorStateView: { error in
Text(error.localizedDescription)
.lineLimit(nil)
}, loadingStateView: {
Text("Loading ...")
})
📄
Pagination
The Pagination
functionality is now (>= 5.0.0
) implemented as a modifier
. It has three different states: error
, idle
and loading
. If the state
of the Pagination
changes the AdvancedList
displays the view created by the view builder of the specified pagination object (AdvancedListPagination
). Keep track of the current pagination state by creating a local state variable (@State
) of type AdvancedListPaginationState
. Use this state variable in the content
ViewBuilder
of your pagination configuration object to determine which view should be displayed in the list (see the example below).
If you want to use pagination you can choose between the lastItemPagination
and the thresholdItemPagination
. Both concepts are described here. Just specify the type of the pagination when adding the .pagination
modifier to your AdvancedList
.
The view created by the content
ViewBuilder
of your pagination configuration object will only be visible below the List if the last item of the List appeared! That way the user is only interrupted if needed.
Example:
@State private var paginationState: AdvancedListPaginationState = .idle
AdvancedList(...)
.pagination(.init(type: .lastItem, shouldLoadNextPage: {
paginationState = .loading
DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + 2) {
items.append(contentsOf: moreItems)
paginationState = .idle
}
}) {
switch paginationState {
case .idle:
EmptyView()
case .loading:
if #available(iOS 14.0, *) {
ProgressView()
} else {
Text("Loading ...")
}
case let .error(error):
Text(error.localizedDescription)
}
})
📁
Move and
🗑️
delete items
To enable the move or delete function just use the related onMove
or onDelete
view modifier. Per default the functions are disabled if you don't add the view modifiers.
import AdvancedList
@State private var listState: ListState = .items
AdvancedList(yourData, content: { item in
Text("Item")
}, listState: listState, emptyStateView: {
Text("No data")
}, errorStateView: { error in
Text(error.localizedDescription)
.lineLimit(nil)
}, loadingStateView: {
Text("Loading ...")
})
.onMove { (indexSet, index) in
// move me
}
.onDelete { indexSet in
// delete me
}
🎛️
Filtering
You can hide items in your list through the content block. Only return a view in the content block if a specific condition is met.
🎁
Example
The following code shows how easy-to-use the view is:
import AdvancedList
@State private var listState: ListState = .items
AdvancedList(yourData, content: { item in
Text("Item")
}, listState: listState, emptyStateView: {
Text("No data")
}, errorStateView: { error in
VStack {
Text(error.localizedDescription)
.lineLimit(nil)
Button(action: {
// do something
}) {
Text("Retry")
}
}
}, loadingStateView: {
Text("Loading ...")
})

Migration
Migration 2.x -> 3.0
The AdvancedList
was dramatically simplified and is now more like the List
and ForEach
SwiftUI views.
- Delete your list service instances and directly pass your data to the list initializer
- Create your views through a content block (initializer parameter) instead of conforming your items to
View
directly (removed type erased wrapperAnyListItem
) - Pass a list state binding to the initializer (before: the
ListService
managed the list state) - Move and delete: Instead of setting
AdvancedListActions
on your list service just pass aonMoveAction
and/oronDeleteAction
block to the initializer
Before:
import AdvancedList
let listService = ListService()
listService.supportedListActions = .moveAndDelete(onMove: { (indexSet, index) in
// please move me
}, onDelete: { indexSet in
// please delete me
})
listService.listState = .loading
AdvancedList(listService: listService, emptyStateView: {
Text("No data")
}, errorStateView: { error in
VStack {
Text(error.localizedDescription)
.lineLimit(nil)
Button(action: {
// do something
}) {
Text("Retry")
}
}
}, loadingStateView: {
Text("Loading ...")
}, pagination: .noPagination)
listService.listState = .loading
// fetch your items ...
listService.appendItems(yourItems)
listService.listState = .items
After:
import AdvancedList
@State private var listState: ListState = .items
AdvancedList(yourData, content: { item in
Text("Item")
}, listState: $listState, onMoveAction: { (indexSet, index) in
// move me
}, onDeleteAction: { indexSet in
// delete me
}, emptyStateView: {
Text("No data")
}, errorStateView: { error in
VStack {
Text(error.localizedDescription)
.lineLimit(nil)
Button(action: {
// do something
}) {
Text("Retry")
}
}
}, loadingStateView: {
Text("Loading ...")
}, pagination: .noPagination)
Migration 3.0 -> 4.0
Thanks to a hint from @SpectralDragon I could refactor the onMove
and onDelete
functionality to view modifiers.
Before:
import AdvancedList
@State private var listState: ListState = .items
AdvancedList(yourData, content: { item in
Text("Item")
}, listState: $listState, onMoveAction: { (indexSet, index) in
// move me
}, onDeleteAction: { indexSet in
// delete me
}, emptyStateView: {
Text("No data")
}, errorStateView: { error in
VStack {
Text(error.localizedDescription)
.lineLimit(nil)
Button(action: {
// do something
}) {
Text("Retry")
}
}
}, loadingStateView: {
Text("Loading ...")
}, pagination: .noPagination)
After:
import AdvancedList
@State private var listState: ListState = .items
AdvancedList(yourData, content: { item in
Text("Item")
}, listState: $listState, emptyStateView: {
Text("No data")
}, errorStateView: { error in
VStack {
Text(error.localizedDescription)
.lineLimit(nil)
Button(action: {
// do something
}) {
Text("Retry")
}
}
}, loadingStateView: {
Text("Loading ...")
}, pagination: .noPagination)
.onMove { (indexSet, index) in
// move me
}
.onDelete { indexSet in
// delete me
}
Migration 4.0 -> 5.0
Pagination
is now implemented as a modifier
Before:
private lazy var pagination: AdvancedListPagination<AnyView, AnyView> = {
.thresholdItemPagination(errorView: { error in
AnyView(
VStack {
Text(error.localizedDescription)
.lineLimit(nil)
.multilineTextAlignment(.center)
Button(action: {
// load current page again
}) {
Text("Retry")
}.padding()
}
)
}, loadingView: {
AnyView(
VStack {
Divider()
Text("Loading...")
}
)
}, offset: 25, shouldLoadNextPage: {
// load next page
}, state: .idle)
}()
@State private var listState: ListState = .items
AdvancedList(yourData, content: { item in
Text("Item")
}, listState: $listState, emptyStateView: {
Text("No data")
}, errorStateView: { error in
VStack {
Text(error.localizedDescription)
.lineLimit(nil)
Button(action: {
// do something
}) {
Text("Retry")
}
}
}, loadingStateView: {
Text("Loading ...")
}, pagination: pagination)
After:
@State private var listState: ListState = .items
@State private var paginationState: AdvancedListPaginationState = .idle
AdvancedList(yourData, content: { item in
Text("Item")
}, listState: $listState, emptyStateView: {
Text("No data")
}, errorStateView: { error in
VStack {
Text(error.localizedDescription)
.lineLimit(nil)
Button(action: {
// do something
}) {
Text("Retry")
}
}
}, loadingStateView: {
Text("Loading ...")
})
.pagination(.init(type: .lastItem, shouldLoadNextPage: {
paginationState = .loading
DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + 2) {
items.append(contentsOf: moreItems)
paginationState = .idle
}
}) {
switch paginationState {
case .idle:
EmptyView()
case .loading:
if #available(iOS 14.0, *) {
ProgressView()
} else {
Text("Loading ...")
}
case let .error(error):
Text(error.localizedDescription)
}
})
Migration 6.0 -> 7.0
I replaced the unnecessary listState Binding
and replaced it with a simple value parameter.
Before:
import AdvancedList
@State private var listState: ListState = .items
AdvancedList(yourData, content: { item in
Text("Item")
}, listState: $listState, emptyStateView: {
Text("No data")
}, errorStateView: { error in
VStack {
Text(error.localizedDescription)
.lineLimit(nil)
Button(action: {
// do something
}) {
Text("Retry")
}
}
}, loadingStateView: {
Text("Loading ...")
}, pagination: .noPagination)
After:
import AdvancedList
@State private var listState: ListState = .items
AdvancedList(yourData, content: { item in
Text("Item")
}, listState: listState, emptyStateView: {
Text("No data")
}, errorStateView: { error in
VStack {
Text(error.localizedDescription)
.lineLimit(nil)
Button(action: {
// do something
}) {
Text("Retry")
}
}
}, loadingStateView: {
Text("Loading ...")
}, pagination: .noPagination)
