IHKeyboardAvoiding Language: Swift 4.2

An elegant solution for keeping any UIView visible when the keyboard is being shown

alt demo

Requirements

IHKeyboardAvoiding Version
Objective C2.6.0
Swift3.0.0 +

Description

IHKeyboardAvoiding will translate any UIView up when the keyboard is being shown, then return it when the keyboard is hidden.

Register an avoidingView(UIView) with IHKeyboardAvoiding; when the keyboard is shown, if the avoidingView's frame will be intersected by the keyboard, then it will move up just above the keyboard. When the keyboard is dismissed, the avoidingView is returned to its original position.

What sets IHKeyboardAvoiding apart from other keyboard avoiding solutions is that it doesn't require placing your content in a UIScrollView. No scroll view is used. And it isn't restricted to keeping UITextFields visible, with IHKeyboardAvoiding any UIView can avoid the keyboard

If Autolayout is used then the constraints are animated, otherwise a CGAffine translation is done.

Supported Features

How to install

Add this to your CocoaPods Podfile.

pod 'IHKeyboardAvoiding'

How to use

To set the avoiding view

KeyboardAvoiding.avoidingView = self.avoidingView

Put it in viewDidLoad() or viewDidAppear(_ animated: Bool) depending on your usage

If you're unsure put it in viewDidAppear(_ animated: Bool)

If you need to set the avoidingView, or its properites, dynamically consider putting it in textViewShouldBeginEditing(_ textView: UITextView)

Optional methods
KeyboardAvoiding.setAvoidingView(self.avoidingView, withTriggerView: self.triggerView) Use this to set an avoidingView but have a different view that triggers the avoiding. If a triggerView's frame will be intersected by the keyboard, then the avoidingView will be moved so that the triggerView is above the keyboard KeyboardAvoiding.buffer The avoidingView will move if the keyboard is within buffer points of the triggerView's frame. Default buffer is 0
KeyboardAvoiding.paddingForCurrentAvoidingView The padding to put between the keyboard and triggerView. Default padding is 0

Enable tap to dismiss the keyboard by simply changing any UIView to be an instance of KeyboardDismissingView in you nib/storyboard
