  • Support for multiple sections with headers and footers.
  • Automatic cell registration and dequeueing.
  • Flexible configuration options for cells, headers, and footers.
  • Convenient helper methods and extensions.

Getting Started

To get started with SSDataSources, follow these steps:

  1. Install SSDataSources using one of the methods mentioned above.
  2. In your view controller, import the SSDataSources module.
  3. Create an instance of either TableViewDataSource or CollectionViewDataSource depending on your needs.
  4. Configure the data source by providing the necessary information, such as cell identifiers, sections, and data.
  5. Set the created data source as the data source for your table view or collection view.

Example Code


TableView Data Source Example


import SSDataSources

class MyTableViewController: UITableViewController {
    private var dataSource: TableViewDataSource?

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()

        dataSource = TableViewDataSource(tableView: tableView)

        // Configure the data source properties and methods
        // dataSource?.configureCell = { ... }
        // dataSource?.configureHeader = { ... }
        // dataSource?.configureFooter = { ... }
        // dataSource?.sectionModels = [ ... ]
    }
}

CollectionView Data Source Example


import SSDataSources

class MyCollectionViewController: UICollectionViewController {
    private var dataSource: CollectionViewDataSource?

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()

        dataSource = CollectionViewDataSource(collectionView: collectionView)

        // Configure the data source properties and methods
        // dataSource?.configureCell = { ... }
        // dataSource?.sectionModels = [ ... ]
    }
}
