ReactiveDataDisplayManager

It is the whole approach to working with scrollable lists or collections.

About

This Framework was made to speed up development of scrollable collections like UITableView or UICollectionView, and to provide new way to easy extend collections functionality.

Breaking changes

We made a massive refactoring with version 7.0.0. Please read our migration guide if you were using version 6 or older.

Currently supported features

• Populating cells without implementing delegate and datasource by yourself
• Inserting, replacing or removing cells without reload
• Expanding and collapsing cells inside collection
• Moving or Drag'n'Drop cells inside collection
• Customizing of section headers and index titles

Usage

Step by step example of configuring simple list of labels.

Prepare cell

You can layout your cell from xib or from code. It doesn't matter. Just extend your cell to ConfigurableItem to fill subviews with model, when cell will be created.

import ReactiveDataDisplayManager

final class LabelCell: UITableViewCell {

    // MARK: - IBOutlets

    @IBOutlet private weak var titleLabel: UILabel!

}

// MARK: - ConfigurableItem

extension LabelCell: ConfigurableItem {

    typealias Model = String

    func configure(with model: Model) {
        titleLabel.text = model
    }
}

Prepare collection

Just call rddm from collection

• add plugins for your needs
• build your ReactiveDataDisplayManager

final class ExampleTableController: UIViewController {

    // MARK: - IBOutlets

    @IBOutlet private weak var tableView: UITableView!

    // MARK: - Private Properties

    private lazy var ddm = tableView.rddm.baseBuilder
        .add(plugin: .selectable())
        .build()

    // MARK: - UIViewController

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        fill()
    }

}

Fill collection

Convert models to generators and call ddm => .reload

private extension MainTableViewController {

    func fill() {

        let models = ["First", "Second", "Third"]

        for model in models {
            let generator = TitleTableViewCell.rddm.baseGenerator(with: model)

            generator.didSelectEvent += { [weak self] in
                // do some logic
            }

            // Add generator to adapter
            ddm.addCellGenerator(generator)
            // or simple use operator `+=`
            ddm += generator
        }

        ddm => .reload
    }

}

Enjoy

As you can see, you don't need to conform UITableViewDelegate and UITableViewDataSource. This protocols are hidden inside ReactiveDataDisplayManager. You can extend table functionality with adding plugins and replacing generator.

You can check more examples in our example project or in full documentation. Small cheat sheet table could also be usefull.
