ResponderChain

ResponderChain is a library that passes events using the responder chain.

In Cocoa's development model, events can be delivered using delegate, block, and notification.
Usually a delegate or block is used to pass events between a ViewController and a View, However, when a deep nested view needs to pass events to the ViewController, using a delegate or block might require passing them layer by layer. Now, events can be passed in one step, regardless of how deep the view hierarchy is, using the ResponderChain.

Installation

Swift Package Manager

Swift Package Manager is Apple's decentralized dependency manager to integrate libraries to your Swift projects. It is now fully integrated with Xcode 11

To integrate ResponderChain into your project using SPM, specify it in your Package.swift file:

let package = Package(
    …
    dependencies: [
        .package(url: "https://github.com/GodL/ResponderChain.git", from: "2.0.0"),
    ],
    targets: [
        .target(name: "YourTarget", dependencies: ["ResponderChain", …])
        …
    ]
)

Cocoapods

pod 'GLResponderChain', '~> 2.0.0'

Usage

let rootView = UIView()

let subView = UIView()

let subSubView = UIView()

rootView.addSubview(subView)
subView.addSubview(subSubView)

normal


rootView.rsp.register(key: “123”) { (value: String) -> Bool in
    XCTAssertEqual(value, "123")
    return false
}

subView.rsp.register(key: ”123) { (value: String) -> Bool in
    XCTAssertEqual(value, "123")
    return true
}

subSubView.rsp.handler(key: “123”, value: "123")

type-safe


var key123: ResponderKey<String> = ResponderKey(value: "123")

rootView.rsp.register(typeKey: key123) { (value: String) -> Bool in
    XCTAssertEqual(value, "123")
    return false
}

subView.rsp.register(typeKey: key123) { (value: String) -> Bool in
    XCTAssertEqual(value, "123")
    return true
}

subSubView.rsp.handler(typeKey: key123, value: "123")

NextType

Starting from ResponderChain 2.0.0, event delivery supports any object that complies with the NextType protocol (UIResresponder complies by default with the NextType protocol)

class NextTest: NextType {
    var next: UIView?
}

extension NextTest : ResponderWrappable {}

let nextTest = NextTest()
nextTest.next = rootView
nextTest.rsp.handler(typeKey: key123, value: "nextTest call")
