Example

from the Example directory first.
Installation
CBPinEntryView is available through CocoaPods. To install it, simply add the following line to your Podfile:
pod "CBPinEntryView"
Put a view into your storyboard or xib and set it's class to CBPinEntryView
. Create an outlet in your file and customise either with the IBInspectable properties or in your code.
Get the code
Get the code with either entryView.getPinAsString()
or entryView.getPinAsInt()
.
Entry callbacks
There are two delegate methods entryChanged(_ completed: Bool)
and entryCompleted(with entry: String?)
. The first will let you know each time the entry is changed, and whether they have completed the entry. The second function will get called when the user fills out the entry to completion and the entered pin will be passed.
Secure entry
Secure entry with customisable secure character (change from ● to ✱ or any other character). Enable isSecure
.
Change the secure entry character by setting the secureCharacter
property.
Display errors
There is an error mode which can be enabled with pinEntryView.setError(isError: true)
and disabled with pinEntryView.setError(isError: false)
. Whether error mode is enabled can be checked with pinEntryView.errorMode
. Calling pinEntryView.resignFirstResponder()
will hide the keyboard and disable the error mode.
