Custom Keyboard Disable Floats 

Features

✅ Highly extensible
✅ iPad friendly--uses a purely numeric keyboard
✅ Locale-safe; don't worry about different localization issues
✅ Display Numbers using 3 built-in NumberDisplayers (or your own!)
✅ Displayers with dynamic-sizing text to always fit your view
✅ Injectable NumberFormatter for custom number formatting
✅ Set a maximum value for numeric text
✅ Ability to hide decimals for text that can be represented by an Int
✅ Built-in beautiful, custom keyboard
✅ Define whether float values are allowed

Installation

  1. Install CocoaPods

  2. Add this repo to your Podfile

    target 'Example' do
    	# IMPORTANT: Make sure use_frameworks! is included at the top of the file
    	use_frameworks!
    
    	pod 'NumericalTextEntry'
    end
  3. Run pod install in the podfile directory from your terminal

  4. Open up the .xcworkspace that CocoaPods created

  5. Done!

How Do I Work With It?

NumericalTextEntry is intended to be very extensible. Despite its extensibility, NumericalTextEntry is very easy to work with.

Basics

To create a numeric text entry field: let numberField = UINumberEntryField()

To get the different values in the number field:

let userInputValue = numberField.rawValue
let numericValue = numberField.doubleValue
let displayedValue = numberField.displayedStringValue

Customization

The following values are customizable for UINumberEntryFields:

// Cap the maximum value for entry to 987.2 (default  9_999_999_999_999.99; exceeding the default value may cause formatting errors due to double-precision.)
numberField.maximumValue = 987.2

// Set the starting value for the number field
numberField.startingValue = 37.2

// Determines if decimals should not be in the displayedString if the number can be represented by an integer 
// e.g.: rawValue: "23" - formattedNumber: "23.00" - displayedNumber: "23")
// e.g. 2: rawValue: "23.0" - formattedNumber: "23.00" - displayedNumber: "23.00"
numberField.hideDecimalsIfIntegerValue = false

// Change the number formatter for the view
numberField.numberFormatter = userDefinedNumberFormatter

// Change the number displayer.
numberField.numberDisplayer = UIFloatingDecimalNumberDisplayer()
numberField.numberDisplayer = UIFlatNumberDisplayer()
numberField.numberDisplayer = UIFittedFlatNumberDisplayer()

// NumberDisplayer customization: both the UIFloatingDecimalNumberDisplayer and UIFittedFlatNumberDisplayer have toggleable animations.
let numberDisplayer = UIFittedFlatNumberDisplayer()
numberDisplayer.animated = false

// Custom fonts and text colors are available for every number displayer as well!
let numberDisplayer = UIFittedFlatNumberDisplay(withFont: customFont, withTextColor: UIColor.red)

Want to disallow float values? Simply inject a NumberFormatter that doesn't allow floats!

let numberFormatter = NumberFormatter()
numberFormatter.allowsFloats = false
numberField.numberFormatter = numberFormatter

Custom NumberDisplayers

Want to create your own NumberDisplayer? Follow this simple protocol!

/// A protocol used to display numbers
public protocol UINumberDisplayer {
    /// Displays the provided value.
    ///
    /// - Parameters:
    ///   - stringToDisplay: The complete string to display.
    ///   - rawValue: The raw value of the string to display (not formatted)
    ///   - numberFormatter: The formatter used to generate the stringToDisplay
    ///   - view: The view where the value should be displayed in
    /// - Returns: The views that were created to hold the displayed value.
    func displayValue(_ stringToDisplay: String, withRawString rawString: String,
                      numberFormatter: NumberFormatter, inView view: UIView) -> [UIView]
}
