IB

rubymotion interface builder support (yes, with outlets)

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'ib'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install ib

In your Rake file:


$:.unshift("/Library/RubyMotion/lib")  
require 'motion/project'  

# if you use bundler
require 'bundler' 
Bundler.require

# if you are not using bundler
require 'rubygems'
require 'ib'

Motion::Project::App.setup do |app|
  # ...
end

Usage

Manual Way

extend your class with IB module

class HelloController < UIViewController
  extend IB

  attr_accessor :title

  # define ib outlet
  ib_outlet :title, UILabel # IBOutlet UILabel * title;
  ib_outlet :untyped_label  # IBOutlet id untyped_label;

  def someAction
  end

  # define ib action
  ib_action :someAction
end

Generators Way

Generate controller with folllowing command:

ib c Hello UIViewController \
  --outlets scroller:UIScrollView btn_hello: \
  --actions say_hello \
  --accessors data_source

The generated file:

/app/controllers/hello_controller.rb

class HelloController < UIViewController
  extend IB

  attr_accessor :data_source, :scroller, :htn_hello

  ## ib outlets
  ib_outlet :scroller, UIScrollView
  ib_outlet :btn_hello

  def say_hello(sender)
    # TODO Implement action here
  end

  ## ib action
  ib_action :say_hello

end

Run rake design create Storyboard or nibs (put them in resources folder) and you will be able to bind outlets and actions to your ruby code.

Note : add ui.xcodeproj to your .gitignore

Sample app

Here is sample app

clone it
run bundle
