Class: MotionKit::TreeLayout

Inherits:
BaseLayout show all
Defined in:
lib/motion-kit/layouts/tree_layout.rb

Overview

A sensible parent class for any Tree-like layout class. Platform agnostic. Any platform-specific tasks are offloaded to child elements (add_child, remove_child). You could use a TreeLayout subclass to construct a hierarchy representing a family tree, for instance. But that would be a silly use of MotionKit.

Direct Known Subclasses

CALayerLayout, Layout, MenuLayout, WindowLayout

Dynamic Method Handling

This class handles dynamic methods through the method_missing method in the class MotionKit::BaseLayout

Class Method Details

.view(name) ⇒ Object

This is an ‘attr_reader`-like method that also calls `build_view` if the assigned to ivars in your `layout` method.

Examples:

class MyLayout < MK::Layout
  view :label
  view :login_button

  def layout
    # if element id and attr name match, no need to assign to ivar
    add UILabel, :label
    # if they don't match you must assign.  If you are using
    # Key-Value observation you should use the setter:
    self. = add UIButton, :button
  end

end

Instance Method Details

#add(element, element_id = nil, &block) ⇒ Object

Instantiates a view via ‘create` and adds the view to the current target. If no view exists on the stack, a default root view can be created if that has been enabled. The block is run in the context of the new view.

#root(element, element_id = nil, &block) ⇒ Object

Assign a view to act as the ‘root’ view for this layout. This method can only be called once, and must be called before ‘add` is called for the first time (otherwise `add` will create a default root view). This method must be called from inside `layout`, otherwise you should just use `create`.

You can also call this method with just an element_id, and the default root view will be created.
