FolioReaderKit is available through CocoaPods and Carthage.
CocoaPods is a dependency manager for Cocoa projects. You can install it with the following command:
$ gem install cocoapodsTo integrate FolioReaderKit into your Xcode project using CocoaPods, specify it in your Podfile:
source'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git'platform:ios,'8.0'use_frameworks!target'<Your Target Name>'dopod'FolioReaderKit'endThen, run the following command:
$ pod installAlternatively to give it a test run, run the command:
$ pod try FolioReaderKitAdd the following to your Cartfile
github"FolioReader/FolioReaderKit"Run the following command:
$ carthage update --platform iOS --no-use-binariesThen, follow the steps as described in Carthage's README.
- iOS 8.0+
- Xcode 8.2+
To get started, this is a simple usage sample of using the integrated view controller.
import FolioReaderKit
func open(sender:AnyObject){letconfig=FolioReaderConfig()letbookPath=Bundle.main.path(forResource:"book", ofType:"epub")
FolioReader.presentReader(parentViewController:self, withEpubPath: bookPath!, andConfig: config)}You can also use your own FolioReader View Controller like this.
letconfig=FolioReaderConfig()letbookPath=Bundle.main.path(forResource:"book", ofType:"epub")letepubVC=FolioReaderContainer(withConfig: config, epubPath: bookPath!, removeEpub:true)
// Present the epubVC view controller like every other UIViewController instance
present(epubVC, animated:true, completion:nil)In your AppDelegate call applicationWillResignActive and applicationWillTerminate. This will save the reader state even if you kill the app.
import FolioReaderKit
func applicationWillResignActive(_ application:UIApplication){FolioReader.applicationWillResignActive()}func applicationWillTerminate(_ application:UIApplication){FolioReader.applicationWillTerminate()}To get started, here is a simple example how to use the integrated view controller with storyboards.
import FolioReaderKit
classStoryboardFolioReaderContrainer:FolioReaderContainer{requiredinit?(coder aDecoder:NSCoder){
super.init(coder: aDecoder)letconfig=FolioReaderConfig()
config.scrollDirection =.horizontalWithVerticalContent
guardlet bookPath =Bundle.main.path(forResource:"The Silver Chair", ofType:"epub")else{return}setupConfig(config, epubPath: bookPath)}}Go to your storyboard file, choose or create the view controller that should present the epub reader. In the identity inspector set StoryboardFolioReaderContrainer as class.
For now the best documentation is the sample project. I will write a better am working to improve the code documentation, this is the current progress:
