JSBadgeView

Customizable UIKit badge view like the one on applications in the iOS springboard. Very optimized for performance: drawn entirely using CoreGraphics.

Snapshoot:

Usage

• Clone the repository:

$ git clone git@github.com:JaviSoto/JSBadgeView.git

• Check out the sample project.

• Drag the JSBadgeView folder into your project.

• Include the header file:

#import "JSBadgeView.h"

• Create a JSBadgeView and attach it to a view at the position you like. Example:

JSBadgeView *badgeView = [[JSBadgeView alloc] initWithParentView:rectangle alignment:JSBadgeViewAlignmentTopRight];
badgeView.badgeText = @"3";

• Check the header file for all the things you can customize.

CocoaPods:

• Add pod 'JSBadgeView' to your Podfile.
• You're done!

UIAppearance

• You can customize all JSBadgeViews in your application, or the ones that are subviews of a specific type of view, using UIAppearance. Example:

[[JSBadgeView appearance] setBadgeBackgroundColor:UIColor.blackColor];
[[JSBadgeView appearance] setBadgeAlignment:JSBadgeViewAlignmentTopRight];

Compatibility

• Supports ARC. If you want to use it in a project without ARC, mark JSBadgeView.m with the linker flag -fobjc-arc.
• Compatible with iOS7.0+.
