Swift Table

The fastest and easiest way to present a UITableView - in 3 lines of code.

Powered by Generics to present any data type.

No need to use the UITableViewDelegate and UITableViewDataSource protocols.

Swift Table is a free and open-source library that removes the hundreds of lines of code you need to create a fully-customized TableView.

var table = Table(data: [“Home”, “Videos”, “Articles”, “Settings”])
let tableView = table.show()
view.addSubview(tableView)

That is all you need!

let table = Table(reuseIdentifier: “id”,
                  data: [“Krishna”, “Thomas”, “Jaimie”, “Susan”],
                  frame: view.frame)
                  {indexPath, element, cell in
                       print(“Tapped on element: \(element)”)
                        cell.addCheckmark()
              }

let tableView = table.show()

// Customization
table.setHeader(title: “Family!”)
table.setAccessory(style: .disclosureIndicator)

• Supports single and multiple sections of data
• Can show a subtitle and image label for each cell
• Provide your own action triggered when a cell is tapped
• Over 30 public methods to customize most aspects of TableViews - headers, cellHeight, accessories, fonts, colors and much more
• Includes support for Documentation Compiler (DocC) to show code documentation and tips as you type
• Supports Swift Package Manager (SPM) and Cocoapods dependency managers.

• Reduce the hundreds of lines of codes you use for TableViews
• Save dozens of hours of development time
• Prevent confusing errors

• If you want to show a TableView with one section, insert one array into the data parameter or call the .setData() method. If you want to show a TableView with multiple sections, insert a multidimensional array into the datasets parameter or call the .setDatasets() method.
• To perform any changes, try using the public methods on the Table class. For example: table.setCellHeight(54.0) or table.setTitleColor(color: blue)
• To present your own custom class or struct, conform to the ::TableData:: protocol.
• Open the Example folder to see an Xcode Project showing how to use Swift Table.
• Current issue: if a TableView is not shown, make sure the Table variable is a global variable (outside of viewDidLoad or any other function) - for reference, see the Example project.
