Requirements

  • iOS 8.0+
  • Xcode 8.0+
  • Swift 3.0+

Installation

CocoaPods

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

$ gem install cocoapods

CocoaPods 1.1.0+ is required to build Reusable 1.0.0+.

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

source 'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git'
platform :ios, '8.0'
use_frameworks!

target '<Your Target Name>' do
    pod 'ParallaxHeader', '~> 3.0.0'
end

Then, run the following command:

$ pod install

Cocoapods versions

  • Swift5 :
pod 'ParallaxHeader', '~> 3.0.0'
  • Swift4 :
pod 'ParallaxHeader', '~> 2.0.0'
  • Swift3 :
pod 'ParallaxHeader', '~> 1.0.6'

Usage

To add parallax header to scroll view (table view) you need just create view and set it to your scroll view (table view).

Use case - one image view

  //create view as header view    
  let imageView = UIImageView()
  imageView.image = UIImage(named: "1")
  imageView.contentMode = .scaleAspectFill
        
  tableView.parallaxHeader.view = imageView
  tableView.parallaxHeader.height = 400
  tableView.parallaxHeader.minimumHeight = 0
  tableView.parallaxHeader.mode = .topFill

Use case - slider of images

let parallaxHeight: CGFloat = view.frame.height - 64 - 49 - sliderHeight
let layout = UICollectionViewFlowLayout()
layout.scrollDirection = .horizontal
collectionParallaxView = UICollectionView(
    frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: view.frame.width, height: parallaxHeight),
    collectionViewLayout: layout
)
collectionParallaxView.isPagingEnabled = true
collectionParallaxView.showsHorizontalScrollIndicator = false
collectionParallaxView.backgroundColor = UIColor.white
collectionParallaxView.delegate = self
collectionParallaxView.dataSource = self

//adding view as parallax header to table view is straightforward
tableView.parallaxHeader.view = collectionParallaxView
tableView.parallaxHeader.height = parallaxHeight
tableView.parallaxHeader.minimumHeight = 0
tableView.parallaxHeader.mode = .centerFill
tableView.parallaxHeader.parallaxHeaderDidScrollHandler = { parallaxHeader in
    print(parallaxHeader.progress)
}

Use case - Blur vibrant text

  • Blur library is used here.
  • SnapKit library is used here.
let imageView = UIImageView()
imageView.image = UIImage(named: "profile")
imageView.contentMode = .scaleAspectFill
        
//setup blur vibrant view
imageView.blurView.setup(style: UIBlurEffectStyle.dark, alpha: 1).enable()
        
headerImageView = imageView
        
tableView.parallaxHeader.view = imageView
tableView.parallaxHeader.height = 400
tableView.parallaxHeader.minimumHeight = 40
tableView.parallaxHeader.mode = .centerFill
tableView.parallaxHeader.parallaxHeaderDidScrollHandler = { parallaxHeader in
    //update alpha of blur view on top of image view 
    parallaxHeader.view.blurView.alpha = 1 - parallaxHeader.progress
}
        
// Label for vibrant text
let vibrantLabel = UILabel()
vibrantLabel.text = "Vibrant"
vibrantLabel.font = UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 40.0)
vibrantLabel.sizeToFit()
vibrantLabel.textAlignment = .center
imageView.blurView.vibrancyContentView?.addSubview(vibrantLabel)
//add constraints using SnapKit library
vibrantLabel.snp.makeConstraints { make in
    make.edges.equalToSuperview()
}

Use case - Blur round icon

  • Blur library is used here.
  • SnapKit library is used here.
let image = UIImage(named: "profile")
        
let imageView = UIImageView()
imageView.image = image
imageView.contentMode = .scaleAspectFill
parallaxHeaderView = imageView
        
//setup bur view
imageView.blurView.setup(style: UIBlurEffectStyle.dark, alpha: 1).enable()
        
tableView.parallaxHeader.view = imageView
tableView.parallaxHeader.height = 400
tableView.parallaxHeader.minimumHeight = 120
tableView.parallaxHeader.mode = .centerFill
tableView.parallaxHeader.parallaxHeaderDidScrollHandler = { parallaxHeader in
    //update alpha of blur view on top of image view
    parallaxHeader.view.blurView.alpha = 1 - parallaxHeader.progress
}
        
let roundIcon = UIImageView(
    frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 100, height: 100)
)
roundIcon.image = image
roundIcon.layer.borderColor = UIColor.white.cgColor
roundIcon.layer.borderWidth = 2
roundIcon.layer.cornerRadius = roundIcon.frame.width / 2
roundIcon.clipsToBounds = true
        
//add round image view to blur content view
//do not use vibrancyContentView to prevent vibrant effect
imageView.blurView.blurContentView?.addSubview(roundIcon)
//add constraints using SnpaKit library
roundIcon.snp.makeConstraints { make in
    make.center.equalToSuperview()
    make.width.height.equalTo(100)
}

    Cannot Use Header Sections In a UITableView

    Using the parallax header with a UITableView that has header sections causes scrolling issues with the header sticking in the view until scrolling to another header section.

    iOS 10 Status bar issue

    Hi All,

    I'm having having an issue where the header is shown bellow the status bar. So the header.y == statubar.maxY. The tableview's.y == 0. So the content is shown bellow the status bar. Can anyone help?

    Thanks in advance!

  • Scroll To Row results in scrolling to bottom of UITableView

    Scroll To Row results in scrolling to bottom of UITableView

    Hi, I'm implementing a comments tableview with a parallax header. To show insertion of comments I'm using scrollToRow but when I use it on a tableView with parallax header, the table is scrolled down to the bottom. I've tested it without parallax header scrolling works exactly as needed. Also my table style is plain and I'm using a section header as a comment having replies as cells.

    Fix constraint error for 'center' and 'centerFill'

    Hi 👋

    Thanks for your awesome library! 👍 I just notice a small constraint error. If you:

    1. Launch your example project
    2. Test one tableView with parallaxHeader using centerFill as mode
    3. You'll see an error in the logs "Unable to satisfy constraint... attempt recovering by breaking constraint centerX"

    I fixed it! Works like a charm ✨

  • Ignore top safe area insets if needed &  SPM support.

    Ignore top safe area insets if needed & SPM support.

    Ignore Safe Areas

    Issue: Safe area is been used to pin contentView without taking into consideration some of other custom layouts, for example having an imageView as header covering the whole navBar including safeAreas.

    This PR adds an optional flag were users can set it to true if their headers fill the whole safe area.

     /// This is to support a usecase where a parallax header is being used at the very top edge of the screen.
    /// If this is set to true then the header will be pinned at the top of the scrollView. Default value is `false`
        public var ignoreTopSafeAreaInset:Bool = false
    

    Usage: myScrollview.parallaxHeader.ignoreTopSafeAreaInset = true

    Swift Package Manager (SPM)

    This PR also includes SPM support without any changes to source code structure. Only a package manifest file is added which points to the right source files.

    Note: The reason to include SPM support on a single PR is because I am using this branch in my project.

    This reverts commit 77814dc61a2715a76f6f537d6de44e613d927060.

    We're using the parallax header on the very top of one of our screens. This change leads to a top offset (44pt) on newer "notch devices" as we don't want to constraint to the safeArea but, to the very top of the screen.
