Installation

Manual

Copy JNExpandableTableView classe into your project.

Usage

Replace your UITableView classes with JNExpandableTableView

Delegates

To make a cell expandable just implement:

- (BOOL)tableView:(JNExpandableTableView *)tableView canExpand:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
    return YES;
}

DataSource

As there are no delegate interceptions you need to return the number of cells in this format:

- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section {

    return JNExpandableTableViewNumberOfRowsInSection((JNExpandableTableView *)tableView,section,20);
}

To return an expanded Cell, check the indexPath and return the cell you need:

- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {

    if ([self.tableView.expandedContentIndexPath isEqual:indexPath])
    {
        static NSString *CellIdentifier = @"expandedCell";

        UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];

        return cell;

    }

    else
    {
        NSIndexPath * adjustedIndexPath = [self.tableView adjustedIndexPathFromTable:indexPath];

        static NSString *cellIdentifier = @"Cell";

        UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:cellIdentifier];

        cell.textLabel.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"Index: %ld",(long)adjustedIndexPath.row];

        return cell;
    }
}

Considerations

JNExpandableTableView is a subclass of UITableView and thus we are not replacing delegates and doing tricky interceptions. That is why you need to help this class in some datasource calls.
