**TL;DR** *UIPageViewController done properly.*



## ⭐️ Features

- [x] Simplified data source management & enhanced delegation.

- [x] Dynamically insert & remove pages.

- [x] Infinite scrolling support.

- [x] Automatic timer-based page transitioning.

- [x] Support for custom animated page transitions.



## 📋 Requirements

Pageboy requires iOS 11 / tvOS 11; and is compatible with Swift 5.



## 📲 Installation



### Swift Package Manager

Pageboy is compatible with [Swift Package Manager](https://swift.org/package-manager) and can be integrated via Xcode.



### CocoaPods

Pageboy is also available through [CocoaPods](https://cocoapods.org):

```ruby

pod 'Pageboy', '~> 4.0'

```



### Carthage

Pageboy is also available through [Carthage](https://github.com/Carthage/Carthage):

```ogdl

github "uias/Pageboy" ~> 4.0

```



## 🚀 Usage

- [The Basics](#the-basics)

- [PageboyViewControllerDelegate](#pageboyViewControllerDelegate)

- [Navigation](#navigation)

- [Insertion & Deletion](#insertion-&-deletion)



### The Basics



1) Create an instance of a `PageboyViewController` and provide it with a `PageboyViewControllerDataSource`.



```swift

class PageViewController: PageboyViewController, PageboyViewControllerDataSource {



    override func viewDidLoad() {

        super.viewDidLoad()

        

	self.dataSource = self

    }

}

```



2) Implement the `PageboyViewControllerDataSource` functions.



```swift

func numberOfViewControllers(in pageboyViewController: PageboyViewController) -> Int {

    return viewControllers.count

}



func viewController(for pageboyViewController: PageboyViewController,

                    at index: PageboyViewController.PageIndex) -> UIViewController? {

    return viewControllers[index]

}



func defaultPage(for pageboyViewController: PageboyViewController) -> PageboyViewController.Page? {

    return nil

}

```



### PageboyViewControllerDelegate



The delegate functions provided by a `PageboyViewController` are much more reliable and useful than what a raw `UIPageViewController` provides. You can use them to find out exactly where the current page is, and when it's moved, where it's headed.



#### willScrollToPageAtIndex

About to embark on a transition to a new page.



```swift

func pageboyViewController(_ pageboyViewController: PageboyViewController,

                           willScrollToPageAt index: Int,

                           direction: PageboyViewController.NavigationDirection,

                           animated: Bool)

```



#### didScrollToPosition

Scrolled to a relative position along the way transitioning to a new page.



```swift

func pageboyViewController(_ pageboyViewController: PageboyViewController,

                           didScrollTo position: CGPoint,

                           direction: PageboyViewController.NavigationDirection,

                           animated: Bool)

```



#### didScrollToPage

Successfully completed a scroll transition to a page.



```swift

func pageboyViewController(_ pageboyViewController: PageboyViewController,

                           didScrollToPageAt index: Int,

                           direction: PageboyViewController.NavigationDirection,

                           animated: Bool)

```



#### didReload

Child view controllers have been reloaded.



```swift

func pageboyViewController(_ pageboyViewController: PageboyViewController,

                           didReloadWith currentViewController: UIViewController,

                           currentPageIndex: PageIndex)

```



### Navigation

You can navigate programmatically through a `PageboyViewController` using `scrollToPage()`:

```swift

pageViewController.scrollToPage(.next, animated: true)

```



- Infinite scrolling can be enabled with `.isInfiniteScrollEnabled`.

- Interactive scrolling can also be controlled with `.isScrollEnabled`.



### Insertion & Deletion

Pageboy provides the ability to insert and delete pages dynamically in the `PageboyViewController`.



```swift

func insertPage(at index: PageIndex, then updateBehavior: PageUpdateBehavior)

func deletePage(at index: PageIndex, then updateBehavior: PageUpdateBehavior)

```



*This behaves similarly to the insertion of rows in `UITableView`, in the fact that you have to update the data source prior to calling any of the update functions.*



**Example:**



```swift

let index = 2

viewControllers.insert(UIViewController(), at: index)

pageViewController.insertPage(at: index)

```



*The default behavior after inserting or deleting a page is to scroll to the update location, this however can be configured by passing a  `PageUpdateBehavior` value other than `.scrollToUpdate`.*



## ⚡️ Other Extras



- `reloadData()` - Reload the view controllers in the page view controller. (Reloads the data source).

- `.navigationOrientation` - Whether to orientate the pages horizontally or vertically.

- `.currentViewController` - The currently visible view controller if it exists.

- `.currentPosition` - The exact current relative position of the page view controller.

- `.currentIndex` - The index of the currently visible page.

- `.parentPageboy` - Access the immediate parent `PageboyViewController` from any child view controller.



### Animated Transitions

Pageboy also provides custom transition support for **animated transitions**. This can be customized via the `.transition` property on `PageboyViewController`.



```swift

pageboyViewController.transition = Transition(style: .push, duration: 1.0)

```



*Note: By default this is set to `nil`, which uses the standard animation provided by `UIPageViewController`.*



### Auto Scrolling

`PageboyAutoScroller` is available to set up timer based automatic scrolling of the `PageboyViewController`:



```swift

pageboyViewController.autoScroller.enable()

```



Support for custom intermission duration and other scroll behaviors is also available.
