Xcode templates for UIKit subclasses and MVVM modules.
Template for MVVM module is based on delegate between view model and view controller without support for Dependency Inversion Principle. Support for reactive frameworks and abstraction will be delivered in future versions.
Templates for subclasses of UIKit views support only following classes for now: UIButton, UIView, UITableViewCell.
Clone or download sources and launch installation script:
sh install.sh
It will copy all templates to your ${HOME}/Library/Developer/Xcode/Templates directory. Restart Xcode.
⚠️ Xcode templates allow to create two kind of templates. First one is project template which allows to create entire project from scratch. This kind of template allows to use subfolders and build hierarchy of files. This project doesn't deliver templates of this kind for now. Second type is just flat list of files. Xcode doesn't allow to create subfolders when using Xcode → File → New → File... dialog. Templates delivered in this project use this kind of templates. So it will be always flat list of files without subfolders.
- Create or open existing iOS project in Xcode.
- Create group for you MVVM module in Navigator, for example
MyModule. - Go to Xcode → File → New → File... and select iOS tab.
- Scroll to AB Software section at the bottom.
- Select template, for example MVVM.
- Type name of module and configure other options.
- Click Next and create files.
Please take under your attention that Xcode templates allow to create only files. Groups or directories should be created by you manually.
Template for MVVM module creates following files:
final class <MyModule>Factory {
static func pushIn(navigationController: UINavigationController, dependencyManager: DependencyManager) {
...
}
static func rootIn(navigationController: UINavigationController, dependencyManager: DependencyManager) {
...
}
static func showIn(parentController: UIViewController, dependencyManager: DependencyManager) {
...
}
static func create(navigationController: UINavigationController?, parentController: UIViewController?, dependencyManager: DependencyManager) -> <MyModule>ViewController {
...
}
