i'm doing with this, i want to use CollectionView, but i haven't seen prototype cell, and don't know how to use CollectionView in this case, can someone help me ?
I try to use like this way but it take alot of time and hard to manage than UICollectionView
The main way to use UICollectionView is by managing the logic programmatically.
First, create a new class which inherits from UICollectionViewCell
. Choose if you want to include a xib to easily design your cell:
Design your cell with Interface Builder or programmatically.
Create your main view controller including a xib (or a storyboard) with the collection view inside and link it to the associated class via Interface Builder. Alternatively you can add a collection view programmatically to your UIViewController
Make the target view controller conform to the UICollectionViewDelegate
and UICollectionViewDataSource
protocols by declaring them after the father class:
class ViewController: UIViewController, UICollectionViewDelegate, UICollectionViewDataSource {
@IBOutlet weak var collectionView: UICollectionView!
//...
}
Register the associated nib or the class for your cell in the viewDidLoad
method and associate the datasource and delegate protocols to the view controller class:
let cellIdentifier = "cellIdentifier"
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
//if you use xibs:
self.collectionView.register(UINib(nibName:"MyCollectionCell", bundle: nil), forCellWithReuseIdentifier: cellIdentifier)
//or if you use class:
self.collectionView.register(MyCollectionCell.self, forCellWithReuseIdentifier: cellIdentifier)
self.collectionView.delegate = self
self.collectionView.dataSource = self
}
Implement the methods declared in the UICollectionViewDelegate
and UICollectionViewDataSource
protocols :
let objects = ["Cat", "Dog", "Fish"]
func numberOfSections(in collectionView: UICollectionView) -> Int {
return 1
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, numberOfItemsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return self.objects.count
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, cellForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UICollectionViewCell {
let cell = collectionView.dequeueReusableCell(withReuseIdentifier: cellIdentifier, for: indexPath) as! MyCollectionCell
//in this example I added a label named "title" into the MyCollectionCell class
cell.title.text = self.objects[indexPath.item]
return cell
}
Run your app in the simulator (or on a real device) and.. Et voilà! :)

ok first you must have the IBOutlet of your collection view and implements the methods like this
class ViewController: UIViewController, UICollectionViewDelegate, UICollectionViewDataSource,UICollectionViewDelegateFlowLayout{
@IBOutlet var collectionView: UICollectionView!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
count = 9;
let nib = UINib(nibName: "yourItemView", bundle: nil)
collectionView.registerNib(nib, forCellWithReuseIdentifier: "yourItemView")
self.collectionView.delegate = self
self.collectionView.dataSource = self
}
ok in the function you add a xib file, next you must create that extend from UICollectionViewCell, and when you finish this you must override the next methods
func collectionView(collectionView: UICollectionView, numberOfItemsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return count
// the numbers of items
}
func collectionView(collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, sizeForItemAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> CGSize {//size of your item for screen sizes
let wsize = UIScreen.mainScreen().bounds.size.width
switch(wsize){
case 414:
return CGSize(width: 190, height: 102)
case 375:
return CGSize(width: 190, height: 102)
case 320:
return CGSize(width: 174, height: 102)
default:
return CGSize(width: 174, height: 102)
}
}
func collectionView(collectionView: UICollectionView, cellForItemAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UICollectionViewCell {
let cell = collectionView.dequeueReusableCellWithReuseIdentifier("yourItemView", forIndexPath: indexPath) as! yourItemView
return cell
}
and this is all, good luck
