Support of passcodes longer than 4 digits

[le4ker]

Great repository, thanks for sharing! 👏

Do you have any plans for supporting passcodes longer than 4 digits? i.e. would be great.

If not, do you want to give me some pointers on how to do it?

Thanks!

Try to set PasscodeLockConfigurationType.passcodeLength = 6

Then you will have to copy both the .xib file and its ViewController.swift file and update it in order it can handle 6 placeholders.

I have made it for our App, but not in a generic way so as UI get's updated accordingly from passcodeLength.
When I find some time I might look into making a generic PR.

Great!

I will wait for your fix, since I prefer to use the component as a pod, instead of forking it 😄

Thanks!

There is no need to fork it.

You just have to create a subclass in your project and follow the docs about the xib file.

I am not planning to work on this early on, so if you need this soon enough then please give the above a try and I will be happy to give you any advices needed here.

Cheers,

Then that's great, I will give it a try myself.

Thanks for the pointers!

@ziogaschr I managed to get the 6 character pin to work, but the two new placeholders are not behaving like the existing 4, they always stay at the same state. Their Class and Module is set to the same classes at the first 4 placeholders.

By the way I didn't subclass any PasscodeLock class (I just edited the PasscodeLockView.xib and then set the passcodeLength of my configuration to 6), so probably this is my missing piece for completing it. Any pointers would be very appreciated! 😄

Thanks!

I had to set the their referencing outlets to the file's owner 😄

Thanks for the guidelines! 👍

Great news. I am super happy that it worked :)

@ziogaschr by the way, how can I fix the non persisted failed passcode attempts? I read the source code but with my (very limited) swift knowledge I can't find a non-hackish way to fix that 😞
