# UITableView-FDTemplateLayoutCell




## Overview

Template auto layout cell for **automatically** UITableViewCell height calculating.



![Demo Overview](https://github.com/forkingdog/UITableView-FDTemplateLayoutCell/blob/master/Sceenshots/screenshot2.gif)



## Basic usage



If you have a **self-satisfied** cell, then all you have to do is: 



``` objc

#import "UITableView+FDTemplateLayoutCell.h"



- (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath

{

    return [tableView fd_heightForCellWithIdentifier:@"reuse identifer" configuration:^(id cell) {

        // Configure this cell with data, same as what you've done in "-tableView:cellForRowAtIndexPath:"

        // Like:

        //    cell.entity = self.feedEntities[indexPath.row];

    }];

}

```



## Height Caching API



Since iOS8, `-tableView:heightForRowAtIndexPath:` will be called more times than we expect, we can feel these extra calculations when scrolling. So we provide another API with cache by index path:   



``` objc

- (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {

    return [tableView fd_heightForCellWithIdentifier:@"identifer" cacheByIndexPath:indexPath configuration:^(id cell) {

        // configurations

    }];

}

```



Or, if your entity has an unique identifier, use cache by key API:



``` objc

- (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {

	Entity *entity = self.entities[indexPath.row];

    return [tableView fd_heightForCellWithIdentifier:@"identifer" cacheByKey:entity.uid configuration:^(id cell) {

        // configurations

    }];

}

```



## Frame layout mode



`FDTemplateLayoutCell` offers 2 modes for asking cell's height.  



1. Auto layout mode using "-systemLayoutSizeFittingSize:"  

2. Frame layout mode using "-sizeThatFits:"  



Generally, no need to care about modes, it will **automatically** choose a proper mode by whether you have set auto layout constrants on cell's content view. If you want to enforce frame layout mode, enable this property in your cell's configuration block:  



``` objc

cell.fd_enforceFrameLayout = YES;

```

And if you're using frame layout mode, you must override `-sizeThatFits:` in your customized cell and return content view's height (separator excluded)



```

- (CGSize)sizeThatFits:(CGSize)size {

    return CGSizeMake(size.width, A+B+C+D+E+....);

}

```



## Debug log



Debug log helps to debug or inspect what is this "FDTemplateLayoutCell" extention doing, turning on to print logs when "calculating", "precaching" or "hitting cache".Default to "NO", log by "NSLog".



``` objc

self.tableView.fd_debugLogEnabled = YES;

```



It will print like this:  



``` objc

** FDTemplateLayoutCell ** layout cell created - FDFeedCell

** FDTemplateLayoutCell ** calculate - [0:0] 233.5

** FDTemplateLayoutCell ** calculate - [0:1] 155.5

** FDTemplateLayoutCell ** calculate - [0:2] 258

** FDTemplateLayoutCell ** calculate - [0:3] 284

** FDTemplateLayoutCell ** precached - [0:3] 284

** FDTemplateLayoutCell ** calculate - [0:4] 278.5

** FDTemplateLayoutCell ** precached - [0:4] 278.5

** FDTemplateLayoutCell ** hit cache - [0:3] 284

** FDTemplateLayoutCell ** hit cache - [0:4] 278.5

** FDTemplateLayoutCell ** hit cache - [0:5] 156

** FDTemplateLayoutCell ** hit cache - [0:6] 165

```



## About self-satisfied cell



a fully **self-satisfied** cell is constrainted by auto layout and each edge("top", "left", "bottom", "right") has at least one layout constraint against it. It's the same concept introduced as "self-sizing cell" in iOS8 using auto layout.



A bad one :( - missing right and bottom

A good one :)

## Notes



A template layout cell is created by `-dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:` method, it means that you MUST have registered this cell reuse identifier by one of:  



- A prototype cell of UITableView in storyboard.

- Use `-registerNib:forCellReuseIdentifier:` 

- Use `-registerClass:forCellReuseIdentifier:`
