SimpleCheckbox aims to accomplish what other ios checkbox controls haven’t. To be simple. There’s no animations, no IBDesignable to slow down interface builder, and no performance heavy draw methods.

🎉 Features

📒 Documentation

⚖️ Carefully tuned default values.

✅ Requirements

• Xcode 11
• iOS 10+
• Swift 5.1

👨‍💻 Installation

Manual

Just drag Checkbox.swift into your project to start using it.

Carthage

• Add github "BeauNouvelle/SimpleCheckbox" to your Cartfile.

You can learn more about Carthage and get help setting it up here.

Cocoapods

Podspec is present, however with SPM out for quite a while now, Cocoapods is no longer officially supported. Latest supported version of SimpleCheckbox is 2.2.2

Swift Package Manager

• Add https://github.com/BeauNouvelle/SimpleCheckbox.git to your package file.

👩‍🍳 Usage

You can create a new Checkbox either programatically:

let checkbox = Checkbox(frame: CGRect(x: 50, y: 50, width: 25, height: 25))

Or using interface builder by dragging a UIView into your view controller and assigning its class to Checkbox.

After hooking up an outlet you can begin customization.

👩‍🎨 Customization

Border

Border Color

checkbox.checkedBorderColor = .blue
checkbox.uncheckedBorderColor = .black

Border Style

checkbox.borderStyle = .circle
checkbox.borderStyle = .square

Checkmark

Checkmark Color

checkbox.checkmarkColor = .blue

Checkmark Style

checkbox.checkmarkStyle = .circle
checkbox.checkmarkStyle = .square
checkbox.checkmarkStyle = .cross
checkbox.checkmarkStyle = .tick

Emoji

checkbox.emoji = "❌"

NOTE: Setting the emoji value will cause simple checkbox to ignore the checkmarkStyle. Any string will work, but only 1-3 characters may be displayed.

Haptic Feedback

checkbox.useHapticFeedback = true

Events

There are two methods for detecting when a tap event has occured and the isChecked property has changed.

Add Target

checkbox.addTarget(self, action: #selector(checkboxValueChanged(sender:)), for: .valueChanged)

.......

@objc func checkboxValueChanged(sender: Checkbox) {
    print("checkbox value change: \(sender.isChecked)")
}

Closure

checkbox.valueChanged = { (isChecked) in
    print("checkbox is checked: \(isChecked)")
}

Touch Area

Checkboxs can sometimes appear smaller than their UIButton and UISwitch counterparts which can make them difficult to activate.

SimpleCheckbox has a way for you to tune the touch raduis to extend beyond its frame. Setting increasedTouchRadius will increase the touch radius by that amount.

checkbox.increasedTouchRadius = 5 // Default
