SESliTableViewCell Documentation

The SESliTableViewCell is a custom table view cell that provides support for speech synthesis in iOS apps. It allows you to easily add text-to-speech functionality to your table view cells, making them accessible to visually impaired users. This documentation will guide you through the process of implementing and using SESliTableViewCell in your app.

Installation

To use SESliTableViewCell in your iOS project, you can follow these steps:

  1. Open your project in Xcode.
  2. Go to File -> Add Files to “Your Project”.
  3. Select the SESliTableViewCell.swift file from the downloaded package.
  4. Make sure the file is added to your target.

Usage

Once you have added the SESliTableViewCell to your project, you can use it in your table view by following these steps:

Step 1: Import SESliTableViewCell

import SESliTableViewCell

Step 2: Register SESliTableViewCell

Register SESliTableViewCell as the custom cell for your table view:

// In your viewDidLoad:
override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()
    tableView.register(SESliTableViewCell.self, forCellReuseIdentifier: SESliTableViewCell.identfier)
}

Step 3: Set Up Table View

Set up your table view to use SESliTableViewCell:

// In your cellForRowAt:
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
    let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: SESliTableViewCell.identifier, for: indexPath) as! SESliTableViewCell

    // Configure the cell

    return cell
}

Step 4: Customize SESliTableViewCell

You can customize the appearance of SESliTableViewCell by accessing its properties and methods. For example:

cell.textLabel?.font = UIFont.boldSystemFont(ofSize: 16)
cell.textLabel?.textColor = .black

Step 5: Enable Text-to-Speech

To enable text-to-speech functionality for SESliTableViewCell, you need to provide the text content to be spoken. This can be done by setting the speechText property of the cell:

cell.speechText = "Your text content"

Step 6: Implement Text-to-Speech Actions

You can implement text-to-speech actions, like play, pause, or stop, for SESliTableViewCell using the provided methods:

// Play
cell.playSpeech()

// Pause
cell.pauseSpeech()

// Stop
cell.stopSpeech()

Step 7: Implement UITableViewDelegate

If you need to handle specific actions when the user interacts with the cell, you can implement UITableViewDelegate methods:

// In your UITableViewDelegate implementation:
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, didSelectRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
    let selectedCell = tableView.cellForRow(at: indexPath) as! SESliTableViewCell

    // Perform action based on cell interaction
}

Conclusion

Congratulations! You have successfully added SESliTableViewCell to your iOS project and implemented text-to-speech functionality for your table view cells. Now your app is more accessible to visually impaired users. Enjoy exploring the features of SESliTableViewCell and feel free to contribute to its development on GitHub.
