KeyboardUtility

iOS keyboard frame real-time tracking. Support interactive keyboard dismissal and iPad undock keyboard.

See demo video on YouTube: https://youtu.be/w3BKTFrxs4I

Requirement

• Xcode 9.0
• Swift 4.0
• iOS 9.0+ for auto keyboard frame observation with UILayoutGuide
• iOS 8.0+ for manual keyboard frame observation

Usage

Auto keyboard frame observation with UILayoutGuide:

let keyboardLayoutGuide = KeyboardLayoutGuide()
view.addLayoutGuide(keyboardLayoutGuide)

// place a text field on top of the keyboard using auto layout
let textField = UITextField()
textField.borderStyle = .roundedRect
view.addSubview(textField)

textField.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
NSLayoutConstraint.activate([
    textField.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.leadingAnchor, constant: 8),
    view.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: textField.trailingAnchor, constant: 8),
    keyboardLayoutGuide.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: textField.bottomAnchor, constant: 8),
])

Manual keyboard frame observation:

// Strong reference the observer to make sure keyboard frame keep update to date.
// Will stop observation automatically when deinit.
var keyboardFrameObserver: KeyboardFrameObserver?

/// make keyboard backgroud red.
func setupKeyboardHighlightView() {
    let frame = CGRect(x: 0, y: view.bounds.height, width: view.bounds.width, height: 0) // setup inital frame to avoid weird animation
    let keyboardHighlightView = UIView(frame: frame)
    
    keyboardHighlightView.backgroundColor = .red
    view.addSubview(keyboardHighlightView)
    
    keyboardFrameObserver = KeyboardFrameObserver(view: view) { [weak keyboardHighlightView] frame, animated in
        // the frame is related to view
        keyboardHighlightView?.frame = frame
    }
}

Limitation

KeyboardLayoutGuide is not supported on UIScrollView, which means you must add it to a non-scrollable view. E.g. If you want to track keyboard frame in a UITableViewController, do not add it to tableView, instead, try add it to navigationController.view.

Installation
