Android PagerTabStrip for iOS!
XLPagerTabStrip is a Container View Controller that allows us to switch easily among a collection of view controllers. Pan gesture can be used to move on to next or previous view controller. It shows a interactive indicator of the current, previous, next child view controllers.
XLPagerTabStrip helps us deal with view controllers that have the same relevance for the user like Android PagerTabStrip and PageView do. Since you're able to navigate between a large amount of view controllers, XLPagerTabStrip is an scalable and nice solution for this problem.
Integrate XLPagerTabStrip
is as easy as following these steps:
-
Create a UIViewController class that should extend from either
XLSegmentedPagerTabStripViewController
,XLBarPagerTabStripViewController
,XLButtonBarPagerTabStripViewController
. -
The recently created concrete view controller should conform to
XLPagerTabStripViewControllerDataSource
implementing:-(NSArray *)childViewControllersForPagerTabStripViewController:(XLPagerTabStripViewController *)pagerTabStripViewController;
-
(Recomended) Set up your view controllers using a nib file or a Storyboard. We need to connect some IBOutlets (take a look at the Demo folder).
-
Enjoy!
For further details take a look at the Demo folder to see the code of examples shown above.
#####How to change the visible child view controller programmatically
XLPagerTabStripViewController
provides the following methods to programmatically change the visible child view controller:
-(void)moveToViewControllerAtIndex:(NSUInteger)index;
-(void)moveToViewController:(UIViewController *)viewController;

in your app is via CocoaPods.
