Typeset makes it easy to create NSAttributedString

@"Hello typeset".typeset
   .match(@"Hello").fontSize(40)
   .match(@"type").purple
   .match(@"set").blue
   .string;

Demo

Usage

  • Method chaining

    • All the method for typeset returns a self object to chaining itself.

       @"Hello typeset".typeset
          .match(@"Hello").fontSize(40)
          .match(@"type").purple
          .match(@"set").blue
          .string;
      

    call typeset method first and call string at last returns a NSAttributedString.

  • UILabel and UITextField support

    • Add typesetBlock to UILabel or UITextField, and you can directly set it's text style with:
     label.typesetBlock = TSBlock(fontSize(40)
                            .match(@"type").purple
                            .match(@"set").blue);
     label.text = @"Hello typeset, hello.";
    
     // If you type in this text field, it will color all the `1` in text field to red
     textField.typesetBlock = TSBlock(match(@"1").red);
  • Construct complicated NSMutableAttributedString

    TSAttributedString(@"Hello".red, @" ", @"World".blue);
  • Match part of string

    • Typeset providing a series of method to match part of your string, you can use these method to select part of your string, and add attribute to it.
     @"Hello".typeset.from(0).to(2).red.string;
     @"Hello".typeset.location(0).length(2).red.string;
     @"Hello".typeset.range(NSMakeRange(0,2)).red.string;
     @"Hello".typeset.match(@"He").red.string;

    These lines of code all make @"He" of @"Hello" to red

    Match Method Explain
    from(NSUInteger) to(NSUInteger)
    location(NSUInteger) length(NSUInteger)
    range(NSRange)
    match(NSString *) match the first substring
    matchWithOptions(NSString *, NSStringCompareOptions) match the first substring with options
    matchAll(NSString) match all the substring
    matchAllWithOptions(NSString *, NSStringCompareOptions) match all the substring with options
    all select all the string
    • Match with pattern
    Match Method Pattern
    matchAllWithPattern(NSString *pattern)
    matchAllWithPatternAndOptions(NSString *pattern, NSRegularExpressionOptions options)
    matchNumbers \d+
    matchLetters [a-zA-Z]+
    matchLanguage(NSString *language) \p{script=%@}
    matchChinese \p{script=@"Han"}
  • Convinient method

    • If you don't want to change some part of the string, and only want to change the color or the font, you call call these methods directly without calling typeset first
     @"Hello".red
     @"Hello".fontSize(20).red
