A SwiftUI view for combining multiple Text views into a single Text instance.
Text {
Text("This text can be")
if isTrue {
Text("bold,")
.fontWeight(.bold)
Text("monospaced")
.font(.system(.body, design: .monospaced))
Text("or")
}
Text("styled")
.font(.system(.caption))
Text("however")
.italic()
Text("you")
.font(Font.title.smallCaps())
Text("want and")
Text("everything")
.foregroundColor(.green)
.underline()
Text("will be combined 😃.")
}
Similarly to how you can build regular view hierarchies, this library provides you with an additional initializer for Text view, that you can use to build complex sentences with varying styles. Inside of text definition block, you can use common code instructions such as if, if else, switch and similar statements to build complex multi style sentences.
You can use Text(_ content:) initializer to build your sentence from multiple Text views provided in passed closure.
Text {
Text("Example")
Text("sentence").bold()
}Output:
Example sentence
By default all Texts declared inside of content block will be separated by a space character. You can change this behavior by providing your own separator text.
Text(separator: "-") {
Text("joined")
Text("with")
Text("dashes")
}Output:
joined-with-dashes
For even more control, like additional styling, pass in Text instance as a separator.
Text(separator: Text(" ! ").bold()) {
Text("bold")
Text("exclamation")
Text("mark")
}Output:
bold ! exclamation ! mark
Inside of text definition blocks you can use control flow statements such as if, switch or if let to build your combined Text.
Text {
Text("Hello,")
if let name = yourName {
Text(name).bold()
} else {
Text("what is your name?")
}
}Output:
Hello, Łukasz
