The missing SwiftUI collection view
QGrid
QGrid is the missing SwiftUI collection view. It uses the same approach as SwiftUI's List view, by computing its cells on demand from an underlying collection of identified data.
? Requirements
✅ macOS 10.15+
✅ Xcode 11.0 (beta 5 11M382q, as of writing this)
✅ Swift 5+
✅ iOS 13+
? Installation
QGrid
is available via Swift Package Manager.
Using Xcode 11, go to File -> Swift Packages -> Add Package Dependency
and enter https://github.com/Q-Mobile/QGrid
? Usage
✴️ Basic scenario:
In its simplest form, QGrid
can be used with just this 1 line of code within the body
of your View, assuming you already have a custom cell view:
struct PeopleView: View {
var body: some View {
QGrid(Storage.people, columns: 3) { GridCell(person: $0) }
}
}
struct GridCell: View {
var person: Person
var body: some View {
VStack() {
Image(person.imageName)
.resizable()
.scaledToFit()
.clipShape(Circle())
.shadow(color: .primary, radius: 5)
.padding([.horizontal, .top], 7)
Text(person.firstName).lineLimit(1)
Text(person.lastName).lineLimit(1)
}
}
}
✴️ Customize the default layout configuration:
You can customize how QGrid
will layout your cells by providing some additional initializer parameters, which have default values:
struct PeopleView: View {
var body: some View {
QGrid(Storage.people,
columns: 3,
columnsInLandscape: 4,
vSpacing: 50,
hSpacing: 20,
vPadding: 100,
hPadding: 20) { person in
GridCell(person: person)
}
}
}
? Example App
?QGridTestApp
directory in this repository contains a very simple application that uses QGrid
. Open QGridTestApp/QGridTestApp.xcodeproj
and either use the new Xcode Previews feature or just run the app.
