# MiniTabBar

A clean simple alternative to the UITabBar. Only shows the title when being tapped on. Gives the app a way cleaner look :)



## Requirements

- iOS 10.0+

- Xcode 8

## Installation

#### CocoaPods:

You can use [CocoaPods](http://cocoapods.org/) to install `MiniTabBar` by adding it to your `Podfile`:

```ruby

pod 'MiniTabBar'

```	

#### Manually

Drag and drop `MiniTabBar.swift` and `MiniTabBarItemView.swift` into your project.

## Usage

```swift

// First create some tab bar items:

// Icons should be a template image with the size 26 x 20 dp

var items = [MiniTabBarItem]()

items.append(MiniTabBarItem(title: "Tab Name", icon: ))

//...

// Create a MiniTabBar instance and add it as a regular subview:

let tabBar = MiniTabBar(items: items)

tabBar.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false

tabBar.delegate = self

self.view.addSubview(tabBar)

let constraints = [

	tabBar.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.layoutMarginsGuide.bottomAnchor),

	tabBar.widthAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.widthAnchor),

	tabBar.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 44),

]

NSLayoutConstraint.activate(constraints)

// Delegate protocol:

func tabSelected(_ index: Int) {

	print("Selected tab: ", index)

}

```

## Costumization

Here are some ways to customize the look of the MiniTabBar:

```swift

// Change the tint colour of an item (title & icon):

tabBar.tintColor = UIColor.red

// Change the font of the title label:

tabBar.font = UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 10)

// Select an item programmatically: 

tabBar.selectItem(2, animated: false)

// Change the background & key line of the tab bar:

tabBar.backgroundColor = UIColor.black

tabBar.backgroundBlurEnabled = false

tabBar.keyLine.isHidden = true

```

### Custom View

It's also possible to have a custom view that doesn't act like a tab. For example a (+) button in the middle.



```swift

let customButton = UIButton()

customButton.backgroundColor = UIColor.orange

customButton.frame.size = CGSize(width: 50, height: 50)

let customItem = MiniTabBarItem(customView: customButton, 

                                    offset: UIOffset(horizontal: 0, 

                                                       vertical: -10))

customItem.selectable = false

items.append(customItem)

```
