RxSwiftPlus

An iOS/Swift equivalent for Android's RxKotlin Plus, which makes binding RxSwift to views even easier.

RxSwift Notice

This currently requires the lightweight fork of RxSwift here. The fork only adds Subject and makes Observable an open class. It is maintained. Eventually, it may no longer be necessary.

Khrysalis

This package contains Khrysalis equivalents for usage with the Khrysalis Kotlin to Swift transpiler. You don't need to use Khrysalis for this package to be useful, however.

Sub specs

Core

The core package, which contains some convenient extension functions for manipulating Observable and Subject.

Most important features:

• ValueSubject<T> - a BehaviorSubject that guarantees an initial value. Also has the property value for getting/setting.
• Subject.map - allows bidirectional mapping of a subject.
• Observable.withWrite - transforms an Observable into a Subject by providing some action to perform when onNext is called.

Http

A package allowing easy HTTP calls in Rx style.

Resources

A package abstracting different types of images and video, allowing for easier binding to views.

Bindings

Contains a bunch of functions for bidirectional binding of iOS views to Subjects, as well as a DisposeBag attached to a view's lifecycle.

Some sample features:

• UIView.removed - a DisposeBag that is disposed when the view is removed from the hierarchy
• Observable.subscribeAutoDispose(UILabel, \UILabel.text) - show the value in the given view and keep it updated, automatically disposed when the view is removed from the hierarchy
• Subject<String>.bind(UITextField) - bidirectional bind to the subject, automatically disposed when the view is removed from the hierarchy
• Observable<List<T>>.showIn(UICollectionView) { obs: Observable<T> -> UIView } - Shows updating content in a UICollectionView

BindingsCosmo

Adds bindings for the Cosmos library.

BindingsXibToXmlRuntime

Adds bindings for LabeledToggle from the XmlToXibRuntime.

BindingsXibToXmlRuntimeKhrysalis

Adds bindings for InputViewButton from the XmlToXibRuntime using Khrysalis.

BindingsSearchTextField

Adds bindings for SearchTextField.

ViewGenerator

An alternate way of handling view navigation in iOS. Essentially a replacement for ViewController.

Built to be bare-bones, a ViewGenerator has the following interface:

protocol ViewGenerator {
    func generate(dependency: ViewControllerAccess): UIView
}

where ViewControllerAccess is an interface for accessing an ViewController and its callbacks.

You can then use a SwapView to display a stack of view generators:

let myStack = ValueSubject<Array<ViewGenerator>>([])
myStack.showIn(swapView, viewControllerAccess)

Now, pushing and popping views onto the stack is really easy:

myStack.push(SomeViewGenerator("Test Data"))  // push is a shortcut function
myStack.pop()  // pop is a shortcut function
myStack.value = [MyViewGenerator(myStack)]  // You can reset the whole stack easily

You may have noticed that this means we can use constructors in our views. This is one of the biggest advantages of using view generators.

This pattern was adopted from Android's RxKotlin Plus. You can read more there.

ViewGeneratorCalendar

Extensions allowing convenient operations with the calendar from view generators.

ViewGeneratorImage

Extensions allowing convenient requesting of images, video, and other media from view generators.

ViewGeneratorLocation

Extensions allowing convenient getting of location from view generators.
