DossyTextLabel 📟

A subclass of UILabel reminiscent of Strong Bad's faithful Tandy 400 and MS-DOS of yore.

Requirements

  • Swift 3.0
  • iOS 8.0+
  • Xcode 8.0

Installation

CocoaPods ☕️

You can use CocoaPods to install DossyText by adding it to your Podfile:

pod 'DossyText'

Manual 🔧

You can simply add the DossyText.swift file to your project

Usage

To get the full benefits import DossyText wherever you import UIKit:

import UIKit
import DossyText

Simply create an instance of DossyTextLabel and add it to your view hierarchy however you would like:

let dossyLabel = DossyTextLabel()

Modify it as you would any UILabel:

dossyLabel.textColor = UIColor.cyan
dossyLabel.numberOfLines = 0
dossyLabel.lineBreakMode = .byWordWrapping

...and type away! ⌨️:

dossyLabel.type("Hello world!\nHow are you today?")

More granular modifications

Adjust the speed of the typing by changing millisecondsPerLetter. 70 is a pretty good place to start 🏃🏼.

blinksWhileIdle -- When the typing ends the blinking animation will (or will not) automatically start.

Meta(l!!! 🎸🎸🎸)
