TvOSTextViewer

Light and scrollable view controller for tvOS to present blocks of text

Description

TvOSTextViewer is a view controller to present blocks of text on the same way native Apps do it on tvOS.

Customizable properties:

text: The block of text to be presented
textEdgeInsets: Margins for the text
backgroundBlurEffectStyle: .dark by default
textAttributes: Custom fonts/sizes, text colors, alignment, etc... via NSAttributedText

Requirements

tvOS 9.0+
Xcode 11

Installation

Cocoapods

CocoaPods is a dependency manager for Cocoa projects. You can install it with the following command:

$ gem install cocoapods

To integrate TvOSTextViewer into your Xcode project using CocoaPods, specify it in your Podfile:

source 'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git'
platform :tvos, '9.0'
use_frameworks!

target '<Your Target Name>' do
    pod 'TvOSTextViewer', '~> 1.3.0'
end

Then, run the following command:

$ pod install

Carthage

Carthage is a decentralized dependency manager that builds your dependencies and provides you with binary frameworks.

You can install Carthage with Homebrew using the following command:

$ brew update
$ brew install carthage

To integrate TvOSTextViewer into your Xcode project using Carthage, specify it in your Cartfile:

github "dcordero/TvOSTextViewer" ~> 1.3.0

Run carthage update to build the framework and drag the built TvOSTextViewer.framework into your Xcode project.

Usage

All you need is to create an instance of TvOSTextViewerViewController and present it on the screen:

let viewController = TvOSTextViewerViewController()
viewController.text = "Hello World"
present(viewController, animated: true, completion: nil)

If you would like to show this fullscreen view comming from an awesome button cropping the text on the same way Apple does, you can use it in combination with TvOSMoreButton by cgoldsby

Migrate to Swift 4

Code was already 100% Swift 4 compatible.

Just bumping the Swift version in the project and .swift-version to make it officially compatible with Swift 4.

Create attributes text

Hi, I created the "attributes" variable to allow users to insert other elements in the text field that opens full screen.

For example, if I assign attributes to the simple text field, I can add a title of a different font and color compared to the description. Just like in other tvOS apps.

import SwiftyAttributes ... let title = title! .withAttributes ([ .font (.title1), .textColor (.white) ])

let overview = text! .withAttributes ([ .font (.body), .textColor (.white) ]) viewController.attributes = title + breakline + overview
