Make a configuration UITableView in 5 minutes? Let's do it!

XUI is a drop-in replacement for "Settings Application Schema" on iOS. It allows application to show preferences view controller by creating a simple configuration bundle (much like "Settings.bundle").

Features

• [x] Localized Strings / Image Resources
• [x] Custom Cells (Runtime)
• [x] Notifications

XUI provides more components than private framework "Preferences.framework":

• [x] Group
• [x] Link (Child Pane)
• [x] Switch
• [x] Button (Action)
• [x] TextField
• [x] Radio / Checkbox Group
• [x] Segment Group
• [x] Single Selection Option List
• [x] Multiple Selection Option List
• [x] Ordered Multiple Selection Option List
• [x] Slider
• [x] Stepper
• [x] DateTime Picker
• [x] TitleValue
• [x] StaticText
• [x] Textarea
• [x] Image
• [x] Editable List (Strings)

Usage

// to specify the path for Settings.bundle
NSString *bundlePath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"Settings" ofType:@"bundle"];

// to specify the root entry for that bundle
NSString *xuiPath = [[NSBundle bundleWithPath:bundlePath] pathForResource:@"Root" ofType:@"plist"];

// present or push it!
XUIListViewController *xuiController = [[XUIListViewController alloc] initWithPath:xuiPath withBundlePath:bundlePath];
XUINavigationController *navController = [[XUINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:xuiController];
[self presentViewController:navController animated:YES completion:nil];

NSString *xuiPath = [[NSBundle bundleWithPath:bundlePath] pathForResource:@"Root" ofType:@"plist"];

// directly present XUI from the top most view controller
[XUIListViewController presentFromTopViewControllerWithPath:xuiPath];

Configurations

If the key defaults is not set, configuration will be saved to Standard User Defaults.

NSNumber *enabled = [[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] objectForKey:@"enabled"];
[enabled boolValue];

Notification

XUINotificationEventValueChanged: Any

Theme

XUI Theme can be configured in theme dictionary.

Adapter

Create custom adapter to read the interface schema from any format you like: plist, json, or lua. Adapter also handles data persistence and notifications.

Logger

To know if there is any invalid in our interface schema...

Custom Cells

Inherit from XUIBaseCell then have fun with your own cells whether it is xib based layout or not. XUI will automatically load custom cells.
