The ios-boilerplate from ts310

ios-boilerplate's Introduction

What is IOS Boilerplate

Is a code base for iOS projects. Current version provides

BaseViewController with methods for secure handling of async http requests
ImageManager: a class for downloading images asynchronously
FastCell (inspired on Atebits implementation) is a base class for implementing custom UITableViewCells with fast scrolling.
ListViewController: a base class for creating ViewControllers with one UITableView that can be refreshed with a pull-down component.
Place: a simple implementation of the MKAnnotation protocol
DictionaryHelper: an NSDictionary helper with methods for safe handling of collections
StringHelper: an NSString helper with methods for manipulating NSStrings. Including: trim, sha1 and urlEncode method.
DataHelper: an NSData helper with one method: hexString. It is used inside StringHelper to calculate the sha1 hash hexstring representation of a given string

The project contains some examples with the use of those utility classes:

Example that fetches a JSON object through an async HTTP request, and shows a progress HUD.
Example that fetches a single image with ImageManager
Example that combines FastCells with async image loading using ImageManager.
Example of variable height table cells using FastCell.
Example that shows how to extend ListViewController to create a tableview with a simple pull-down-to-refresh component.
Example that shows how to implement a swipeable cell
ViewController that uses MapOverlays and the Google Maps API to show the directions between two points.
Search bar that autocompletes locations.
