JPSKeyboardLayoutGuide
lets you easily make your autolayout view controllers keyboard aware. Think of it as bottomLayoutGuide
, if it moved along with the keyboard frame.
This makes it dead simple to vertically center items in a view and have them stay centered when the keyboard appears/disappears.
Drag the JPSKeyboardLayoutGuide
folder into your project.
JPSKeyboardLayoutGuide
is a category of UIViewController
, so for any controller where you want to adopt the behaviour previously described, you must override and call these methods in it's respective callbacks:
- (void)jps_viewDidLoad;
- (void)jps_viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated;
- (void)jps_viewDidDisappear:(BOOL)animated;
A sample implementation would be like this:
#import "JPSKeyboardLayoutGuideViewController.h"
@interface LoginVC : UIViewController
@end
@implementation LoginVC
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
[self jps_viewDidLoad];
[self setupLoginField];
}
-(void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated {
[super viewWillAppear:animated];
[self jps_viewWillAppear:animated];
}
-(void)viewWillDisappear:(BOOL)animated {
[super viewWillDisappear:animated];
[self jps_viewDidDisappear:animated];
}
- (void)setupLoginField {
self.loginField = [[UITextField alloc] init];
self.loginField.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = NO;
[self.view addSubview:self.loginField];
self.loginField.placeholder = @"username";
// Constraints
NSLayoutConstraint *centerX = [NSLayoutConstraint constraintWithItem:self.loginField
attribute:NSLayoutAttributeCenterX
relatedBy:NSLayoutRelationEqual
toItem:self.view
attribute:NSLayoutAttributeCenterX
multiplier:1.0f
constant:0.0f];
NSLayoutConstraint *bottom = [NSLayoutConstraint constraintWithItem:self.loginField
attribute:NSLayoutAttributeBottom
relatedBy:NSLayoutRelationEqual
toItem:self.keyboardLayoutGuide
attribute:NSLayoutAttributeTop
multiplier:1.0f
constant:-10.0f];
[self.view addConstraints:@[centerX, bottom]];
}
@end
When importing JPSKeyboardLayoutGuide
, you'll see keyboardLayoutGuide
in addition to topLayoutGuide
and bottomLayoutGuide
. All these guides behave in the same way.
