ViaSwiftUtils

What can ViaSwiftUtils do for you? Here are some examples we compiled:

Tired of spelling out NSLocalizedString every time you localize a string?

title = "HomePage.title".localized
print(title) // 'Main', '頭版', 'صفحه نخست', 'Startseite'

---

Want to find the longest word in a string?

print(germanText.longestWord())
// 'Verkehrsinfrastrukturfinanzierungsgesellschaft'

---

Need an array (or any other MutableCollection) shuffled? [^3]

var numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
numbers.shuffleInPlace() //e.g. [4, 1, 5, 2, 6, 3]

---

Want all the unique entries in a Sequence with Hashable elements?

let emojis = ["😀", "👀", "😱", "😡", "👀", "😀", "👀", "😱"]
let uniqueEmojis = emojis.unique() // ["😀", "👀", "😱", "😡"]

---

Is dealing with TimeInterval inconvenient?

let twelveDays = 12 * TimeInterval.day
let minutes = twelveDays / TimeInterval.minute // 17280

---

Need to create an image with rounded corners from an existing image?

---

Does one of the views in your app need to rotate?

someView.startRotating()
// ...
someView.stopRotating()

---

And more date helper methods & variables:

let components = DateComponents(calendar: gregorian, era: 0,
                                year: 44, month: 3, day: 15, hour: 13)
let idesOfMarch = gregorian.date(from: components)!
let weekDay = idesOfMarch.dayOfWeek // 6
let daysSince = idesOfMarch.days(to: Date()) // 752533

 

These are just a few examples. We are expanding the library continuously and we accept Pull-Requests ☺️
