TGLStackedViewController

A stack layout with gesture-based reordering using UICollectionView – inspired by Passbook and Reminders apps.

What’s new in 2.2

• Reimplementation of item reordering using UIKit drag and drop on iOS 11.0

What’s new in 2.0

• Uses iOS 9 collection view reordering API instead of own implementation, therefore minimum deployment target is iOS 9.0
• Unexposed items are pinned to bottom by default, now
• The exposed item can be collapsed interactively in addition to tapping it
  • When pinning (the default) pan item down to switch back to stacked layout
  • When just pushing cards aside use pinch gesture instead
• Improved sample project w/ lots of settings to tweak interactively

Getting Started

Take a look at sample project TGLStackedViewExample.xcodeproj. You may use sample class TGLViewController as a starting point for your own implementation.

Usage

Via CocoaPods:

• Add pod 'TGLStackedViewController', '~> 2.2' to your project’s Podfile

Via Carthage:

• Add github "gleue/TGLStackedViewController", ~> 2.2 to your project’s Cartfile

Or the “classic” way:

• Add files in folder TGLStackedViewController to your project

Then in your project:

• Create a subclass derived from TGLStackedViewController
• Implement the UICollectionViewDataSource protocol in your subclass
  • Currently only 1 section is supported therefore your implementation of -numberOfSectionsInCollectionView has to return 1. TGLStackedViewController provides a suitable implementation for you – no need to overwrite.
  • Implement methods -numberOfSectionsInCollectionView: and -collectionView:cellForItemAtIndexPath as usual.
  • New in 2.0: TGLStackedViewController’s implementation of method -collectionView:canMoveItemAtIndexPath: checks for stacked layout and a minimum number of 2 items before allowing reordering. Make sure to call super in your implementation and honor it’s result.
  • New in 2.0: Implement method -collectionView:moveItemAtIndexPath:toIndexPath: to update your data model after items have been reordered
• Implement the UICollectionViewDelegate protocol in your subclass
  • TGLStackedViewController already implements methods -collectionView:shouldHighlightItemAtIndexPath:, -collectionView:didDeselectItemAtIndexPath, and -collectionView:didSelectItemAtIndexPath: internally, so make sure to call super in your implementation.
  • Method -collectionView:targetContentOffsetForProposedContentOffset: is crucuial for properly transitioning betwenn exposed and stacked layout, so make sure to call super in your implementation.
• Place UICollectionViewController in your storyboard and set its class to your derived class
  • Make sure to set up the collection view’s delegate and dataSource connections properly
• New in 2.0: TGLStackedViewController does no longer create a layout object internally.
  • Set the collection view controller’s layout class to TGLStackedLayout or your own subclass of TGLStackedLayout in the inspector in Interface Builder.
  • When creating a TGLStackedViewController in code you have to set the collection view’s layout before presenting the view controller.

Requirements

• ARC
• iOS >= 9.0
• Xcode 9.0
