README
Attributed
µframework for Attributed strings.
What is Attributed?
Attributed aims to be a drop in replacement to the current version of the NSAttributedString
API.
The NSAttributedString
interface has a few shortcomings. If you donʼt know the key and type of value needed to set a certain attribute, you have to spend time checking documentation. Another concern is safety: passing a dictionary of type [String: Any]
to the constructor of NSAttributedString
is a potential crash at runtime waiting to happen.
Attributed provides developers a nicer alternative by extending the current NSAttributedString
interface with a fluent, strongly typed, and easy to use API.
Features
- [x] Create
NSAttributedString
instances with a strongly typed, simple, and fluid interface - [x] Combine
NSAttributedString
s with+
- [x] Partially apply Attributes to parts of an
NSAttributedString
by providing aRange

Usage
Creating a new NSAttributedString
by closure composition
"This is not a string".at.attributed {
return $0.foreground(color: .red)
.font(UIFont(name: "Chalkduster", size: 24.0)!)
.underlineStyle(.styleSingle)
}
Creating a new NSAttributedString
by passing an attributes object
First create an Attributes
object:
let attributes = Attributes {
return $0.foreground(color: .red)
.font(UIFont(name: "Chalkduster", size: 24.0)!)
.underlineStyle(.styleSingle)
}
then simply apply the Attributes
to a String
:
"Hello".at.attributed(with: attributes)
Combining NSAttributedString
with +
This library defines an concatenation operator +
for concatentating instances of NSAttributedString
.
+
works with NSAttributedString
no different than it does for String
.
This can be useful for combining NSAttributedStrings
with different attributes to produce the
desired effect without having to specify ranges to apply different attributes to.
let bodyAttributes = Attributes {
return $0.foreground(color: .purple)
.font(UIFont(name: "Noteworthy-Light", size: 20.0)!)
}
let authorAttributes = bodyAttributes.foreground(color: .black)
"I think theres something strangely musical about noise.".at.attributed(with: bodyAttributes)
+ "\n - Trent Reznor".at.attributed(with: authorAttributes)
