README
TextBuilder
Introduction
Text
composition in SwiftUI can often be cumbersome, especially when there's logic affecting its format and content.
TextBuilder leverages the power of Swift Result Builders to solve this problem. TextBuilder mimics SwiftUI's ViewBuilder to make for a familiar experience at the point of use.
Usage
TextBuilder offers 3 ready-made builders out of the box, depending on which text separator you need.
Unspaced Text
@BasicTextBuilder
var loremIpsum: Text {
Text("Lorem").underline().foregroundColor(.blue)
Text("ipsum dolor")
Text("sit").bold()
Text("amet, consectetur")
}
Spaced Text
@SpacedTextBuilder
var loremIpsum: Text {
Text("Lorem").underline().foregroundColor(.blue)
Text("ipsum dolor")
Text("sit").bold()
Text("amet, consectetur")
}
Multiline Text
@MultilineTextBuilder
var loremIpsum: Text {
Text("Lorem").underline().foregroundColor(.blue)
Text("ipsum dolor")
Text("sit").bold()
Text("amet, consectetur")
}
Pro Tip ✨
TextBuilder accepts String
types directly as if they were plain Text
, and also provides a String.text
computed var to remove unwanted code noise when Text
is explicitly needed.
@MultilineTextBuilder
var loremIpsum: Text {
"Lorem".text.underline().foregroundColor(.blue)
"ipsum dolor"
"sit".text.bold()
"amet, consectetur"
}
Other Separators
There are two options to customize the separator used to compose your Text
.
First, you can use Text.init(separator:content:)
:
var loremIpsum: Text {
Text(separator: " 🍆 ") {
"Lorem".text.underline().foregroundColor(.blue)
"ipsum dolor"
"sit".text.bold()
"amet, consectetur"
}
}
But if you prefer to keep using a result builder, you can:
struct EggplantSeparator: TextBuilderSeparator {
static var separator: String { " 🍆 " }
}
@TextBuilder<EggplantSeparator>
var loremIpsum: Text {
"Lorem".text.underline().foregroundColor(.blue)
"ipsum dolor"
"sit".text.bold()
"amet, consectetur"
}
