Getting Started
Basic usage
Using Pages is as easy as:
import Pages
struct WelcomeView: View {
@State var index: Int = 0
var body: some View {
Pages(currentPage: $index) {
Text("Welcome! This is Page 1")
Text("This is Page 2")
Text("...and this is Page 3")
Circle() // The 4th page is a Circle
}
}
}
One can also use Pages with dynamic content:
import Pages
struct Car {
var model: String
}
struct CarsView: View {
let cars = [Car(model: "Ford"), Car(model: "Ferrari")]
@State var index: Int = 0
var body: some View {
ModelPages(cars, currentPage: $index) { pageIndex, car in
Text("The \(pageIndex) car is a \(car.model)")
.padding(50)
.foregroundColor(.white)
.background(Color.blue)
.cornerRadius(10)
}
}
}
How it works
Pages
uses a function builder to accomplish a SwiftUI feel while using a UIPageViewController
under the hood. As in VStack
or HStack
, the current limit of pages to add in a static way using the Pages
view is 10. If more are needed use a ModelPages
instead. The Pages
view will take up all the available space it is given.
Note: The
Pages
view needs more than one page. Otherwise the compiler treats what's insidePages
as a closure.
Customization
The following aspects of Pages
can be customized:
navigationOrientation
: Whether to paginate horizontally or vertically. Default is.horizontal
.
Pages(navigationOrientation: .vertical) {
Text("Page 1")
Text("Page 2")
}
transitionStyle
: Whether to perform a page curl or a scroll effect on page turn. The first two examples in the GIFs above use a scroll effect, and the last one uses page curl. Default is.scroll
.
Pages(
navigationOrientation: .vertical,
transitionStyle: .pageCurl
) {
Text("Page 1")
Text("Page 2")
}
bounce
: Whether to perform a bounce effect when the user tries to scroll past the number of pages. Default istrue
.
Pages(
navigationOrientation: .vertical,
transitionStyle: .pageCurl,
bounce: false
) {
Text("Page 1")
Text("Page 2")
}
wrap
: Whether to wrap the pages once a user tries to go to the next page after the last page. Similarly whether to go to the last page when the user scrolls to the previous page of the first page. Default isfalse
.
Pages(
navigationOrientation: .vertical,
transitionStyle: .pageCurl,
bounce: false,
wrap: true
) {
Text("Page 1")
Text("Page 2")
}
hasControl
: Whether to display a page control or not. Default istrue
.
Pages(
navigationOrientation: .vertical,
transitionStyle: .pageCurl,
bounce: false,
wrap: true,
hasControl: false
) {
Text("Page 1")
Text("Page 2")
}
control
: A user-defined control if one wants to tune it. If this field is not provided andhasControl
istrue
then the classical iOS page control will be used. Notecontrol
must conform toUIPageControl
.
Pages(
navigationOrientation: .vertical,
transitionStyle: .pageCurl,
bounce: false,
wrap: true,
control: MyPageControl()
) {
Text("Page 1")
Text("Page 2")
}
controlAlignment
: Where to put the page control insidePages
. Default is.bottom
.
Pages(
navigationOrientation: .vertical,
transitionStyle: .pageCurl,
bounce: false,
wrap: true,
controlAlignment: .topLeading
) {
Text("Page 1")
Text("Page 2")
}
FAQ
-
How do I position my view to the left (
.leading
) or to the bottom right (.bottomTrailing
)?- For example, if we want to position our
Text
view on the bottom trailing corner, we can use aGeometryReader
to fill the available space:
Pages(currentPage: $index) { GeometryReader { geometry in Text("Page 1") .frame(width: geometry.size.width, height: geometry.size.height, alignment: .bottomTrailing) } .background(Color.blue) GeometryReader { geometry in Text("Page 2") }.background(Color.red) }
Or the
Spacer
trick:Pages(currentPage: $index) { VStack { Spacer() HStack { Spacer() Text("Page 1") } } .background(Color.blue) GeometryReader { geometry in Text("Page 2") }.background(Color.red) }
- For example, if we want to position our
