Features ========

BFKit-Swift is a collection of useful classes, structs and extensions to develop Apps faster.
For example you can use every iOS font with just an enum!
It also adds some useful functions with Custom classes and extends Foundation, UIKit, AppKit and WatchKit classes.

Contributing ============

See CONTRIBUTING.md file.

Installing and Usage ====================

See Requirements section to check Swift, Xcode, BFKit-Swift and OS versions.

Manual

  • Open and build the framework from the project (BFKit.xcodeproj)
  • Import BFKit.framework into your project
  • Import the framework with
    BFKit
  • Enjoy!

CocoaPods

  • Create a Podfile in your project directory and write into:
platform :ios, '8.0'
    xcodeproj 'Project.xcodeproj'
    use_frameworks!

pod 'BFKit-Swift'

  • Change "Project" with your real project name
  • Open Terminal, go to your project directory and type:
    install
  • Import the framework with
    BFKit
  • Enjoy!

Carthage

  • Create a Cartfile in your project directory and write into:
github "FabrizioBrancati/BFKit-Swift"
  • Open Terminal, go to project directory and type:
    update
  • Include the created Framework in your project
  • Add Build Phase with the following contents:
/usr/local/bin/carthage copy-frameworks

Add the paths to the BFKit-Swift framework under Input Files

$(SRCROOT)/Carthage/Build/iOS/BFKit.framework

Add the paths to the copied frameworks to the Output Files

$(BUILTPRODUCTSDIR)/$(FRAMEWORKSFOLDERPATH)/BFKit.framework

This script works around an App Store submission bug triggered by universal binaries and ensures that necessary bitcode-related files are copied when archiving

  • (Optional) Add Build Phase with the following contents
/usr/local/bin/carthage outdated --xcode-warnings

To automatically warn you when one of your dependencies is out of date

  • Import the framework with
    BFKit
  • Enjoy!

Swift Package Manager

  • Create a Package.swift file in your project directory and write into:
// swift-tools-version:5.1     import PackageDescription

let package = Package( name: "Project", products: [ .executable(name: "Project", targets: ["Project"]) ], dependencies: [ .package(url: "https://github.com/FabrizioBrancati/BFKit-Swift.git", .upToNextMajor(from: "4.0.0")) ], targets: [ .target(name: "Project", dependencies: ["BFKit"]) ] )

  • Change "Project" with your real project name
  • Open Terminal, go to project directory and type:
    build
  • Import the framework with
    BFKit
  • Enjoy!
