Steps | Description | Screenshot |
---|---|---|
1 | Navigate to root project | |
2 | Select Project | |
3 | Select Package Dependencies | |
4 | Click + and paste https://github.com/1998code/SwiftNEWKit to the searchbox |
|
5L | Create a new local file called data.json |
You may copy this JSON sample. |
5R | You can use remote json / firebase realtime database too. | Sample: https://testground-a937f-default-rtdb.firebaseio.com/0.json?print=pretty |
- Import first.
import SwiftNEW
- Add States before
body
or anysome View
.
var | Suggested | Options | Type |
---|---|---|---|
showNew | false | false, true | Bool |
align | .center | .leading, .center, .trailing | HorizontalAlignment |
color | .accentColor | All Colors Supported | Color |
size | "simple" | "invisible", "mini", "simple" | String |
labelColor | Color(UIColor.systemBackground) or Color(NSColor.windowBackgroundColor) | All Colors Supported | Color |
label | "Show Release Note" | All Strings | String |
labelImage | "arrow.up.circle.fill" | All SF Symbols | String |
history | true | true, false | Bool |
data | "data" or "https://.../{}.json" | "{LOCAL_JSON_FILE}" or Remote | String |
showDrop | false | false, true | Bool |
@State var showNew: Bool = false
@State var align: HorizontalAlignment = .center
@State var color: Color = .accentColor
@State var size: String = "normal"
#if os(iOS)
@State var labelColor: Color = Color(UIColor.systemBackground)
#elseif os(macOS)
@State var labelColor: Color = Color(NSColor.windowBackgroundColor)
#endif
@State var label: String = "Show Release Note"
@State var labelImage: String = "arrow.up.circle.fill"
@State var history: Bool = true
@State var data: String = "data"
@State var showDrop: Bool = false
- Then, paste this code inside
body
or anysome View
.
SwiftNEW(show: $showNew, align: $align, color: $color, size: $size, labelColor: $labelColor, label: $label, labelImage: $labelImage, history: $history, data: $data, showDrop: $showDrop)
Instead of using seperate states, inline states works too. *Show Bool
cannot be inline.
SwiftNEW(show: $showNew, align: .constant(.center), color: .constant(.accentColor), size: .constant("normal"), labelColor: .constant(Color(UIColor.systemBackground)), label: .constant("Show Release Note"), labelImage: .constant("arrow.up.circle.fill"), history: .constant(true), data: .constant("data"), showDrop: .constant(false))
- The below code is just for reference only. You don't need to copy the structure or model.
public struct Vmodel: Codable, Hashable {
var version: String
var new: [Model]
}
public struct Model: Codable, Hashable {
var icon: String
var title: String
var subtitle: String
var body: String
}
Copy the JSON sample to data.json
file (If you don't have it, simply create a new one.)

Q1. Why did the sheet not popup/show loading/show blank?
A1. Firstly, be sure the latest version in json is matching your app version. If you are using data.json locally, please check ,
is missing or any typo that casue the json no longer valid. If you are using remote data (e.g. Firebase), make sure the json structure is the same as the example.
Q2. How can I contribute to the project?
A2. Simply pull a request, and someone will review your code. If everything is okay, your changes will be merged and reflected in the next minor version.
Q3. Can I use it in Educational (includ. Student's Homework, Class's demo) or NGO or Commerical Project?
A3. YES. This project is under license of MIT. Feel free to use it :)
