Display things in an app-modal floating window that users can fuzzy-filter by typing ahead. Its style roughly matches the floating Spotlight window.
The list uses the default NSTableView styles, so it'll look right at home on Big Sur and older macOS versions alike!
This module strives for taking care of its components's memory wherever possible. This means you do not need to keep a reference to the window or its controller around. Both will be freed when the action has been completed.
This is useful if you want to filter e.g. a limited collection of files, like "Recent Files", or to display a list of known macros.
import FloatingFilter
// ...
let items = [
Item(identifier: UUID(), title: "Create new widget"),
Item(identifier: 202002200930, title: "Open last document"),
Item(identifier: "custom-ID_123", title: "Show downloaded data")
]
FloatingFilterModule.showFilterWindow(items: items) { selectedItems in
print("Selected:", selectedItems.map { $0.title })
}Add this to your Cartfile:
github "cleancocoa/FloatingFilter"
Then run
$ carthage update
... and include FloatingFilter.framework from Carthage/Build/Mac in your app.
