When I tried to find something on github that displays words in their own cells, I couldn't find anything. This is why I made a view container for displaying tags. It serves a simple purpose so I elected not to let users implement delegate functions, insetad they can just call the built-in functions of the view container to add tags and reset the view.
- Initialize the container with a frame for the container. Note that this is not the frame for an individual tag.
let listView = TagListView(frame: CGRectMake(0,0,100,200))
- Add Tags and their corresponding selector
listView.addTag("YOLO", target: self, tapAction: "tap:", longPressAction: "longPress:",backgroundColor: UIColor.whiteColor(),textColor: UIColor.blackColor())
- Reset View
listView.reset() //Clears the screen
To customize the appearance of the label, you can just dive into the addTag() func to change however you want your UILabel to look like.
This view container will be very laggy when there are more than 100 tags on screen. It is due to the expense of drawing UILabel. I don't see an use case where an iOS app would need to display 100 UILabels at same time so it shouldn't be a big deal.
