SVPullToRefresh + SVInfiniteScrolling

These UIScrollView categories makes it super easy to add pull-to-refresh and infinite scrolling fonctionalities to any UIScrollView (or any of its subclass). Instead of relying on delegates and/or subclassing UIViewController, SVPullToRefresh uses the Objective-C runtime to add the following 3 methods to UIScrollView:

new

- (void)removePullToRefresh;
- (void)removeInfiniteScrolling;
- (void)addPullToRefreshWithActionHandler:(void (^)(void))actionHandler;
- (void)addPullToRefreshWithActionHandler:(void (^)(void))actionHandler position:(SVPullToRefreshPosition)position;
- (void)addInfiniteScrollingWithActionHandler:(void (^)(void))actionHandler;

Installation

From CocoaPods

Add pod 'SVPullToRefresh' to your Podfile or pod 'SVPullToRefresh', :head if you're feeling adventurous.

Manually

Important note if your project doesn't use ARC: you must add the -fobjc-arc compiler flag to UIScrollView+SVPullToRefresh.m and UIScrollView+SVInfiniteScrolling.m in Target Settings > Build Phases > Compile Sources.

  • Drag the SVPullToRefresh/SVPullToRefresh folder into your project.
  • Add the QuartzCore framework to your project.
  • Import UIScrollView+SVPullToRefresh.h and/or UIScrollView+SVInfiniteScrolling.h

Usage

(see sample Xcode project in /Demo)

Adding Pull to Refresh

[tableView addPullToRefreshWithActionHandler:^{
    // prepend data to dataSource, insert cells at top of table view
    // call [tableView.pullToRefreshView stopAnimating] when done
}];

or if you want pull to refresh from the bottom

[tableView addPullToRefreshWithActionHandler:^{
    // prepend data to dataSource, insert cells at top of table view
    // call [tableView.pullToRefreshView stopAnimating] when done
} position:SVPullToRefreshPositionBottom];

If you’d like to programmatically trigger the refresh (for instance in viewDidAppear:), you can do so with:

[tableView triggerPullToRefresh];

You can temporarily hide the pull to refresh view by setting the showsPullToRefresh property:

tableView.showsPullToRefresh = NO;

Customization

The pull to refresh view can be customized using the following properties/methods:

@property (nonatomic, strong) UIColor *arrowColor;
@property (nonatomic, strong) UIColor *textColor;
@property (nonatomic, readwrite) UIActivityIndicatorViewStyle activityIndicatorViewStyle;

- (void)setTitle:(NSString *)title forState:(SVPullToRefreshState)state;
- (void)setSubtitle:(NSString *)subtitle forState:(SVPullToRefreshState)state;
- (void)setCustomView:(UIView *)view forState:(SVPullToRefreshState)state;

You can access these properties through your scroll view's pullToRefreshView property.

For instance, you would set the arrowColor property using:

tableView.pullToRefreshView.arrowColor = [UIColor whiteColor];

Adding Infinite Scrolling

[tableView addInfiniteScrollingWithActionHandler:^{
    // append data to data source, insert new cells at the end of table view
    // call [tableView.infiniteScrollingView stopAnimating] when done
}];

If you’d like to programmatically trigger the loading (for instance in viewDidAppear:), you can do so with:

[tableView triggerInfiniteScrolling];

You can temporarily hide the infinite scrolling view by setting the showsInfiniteScrolling property:

tableView.showsInfiniteScrolling = NO;

Customization

The infinite scrolling view can be customized using the following methods:

- (void)setActivityIndicatorViewStyle:(UIActivityIndicatorViewStyle)activityIndicatorViewStyle;
- (void)setCustomView:(UIView *)view forState:(SVInfiniteScrollingState)state;

You can access these properties through your scroll view's infiniteScrollingView property.

Under the hood

SVPullToRefresh extends UIScrollView by adding new public methods as well as a dynamic properties.

It uses key-value observing to track the scrollView's contentOffset.

Big thanks to @seb_morel for his Demistifying the Objective-C runtime talk which really helped for this project.

Hat tip to Loren Brichter for inventing pull-to-refresh.
