Usage

Install through CocoaPods


                                              
                                                pod ‘GearRefreshControl’, ‘~> 1.0.0’
use_frameworks!

Setup your refreshControl:


                                              
                                                override func viewDidLoad() {

super.viewDidLoad()

gearRefreshControl = GearRefreshControl(frame: self.view.bounds)

gearRefreshControl.addTarget(self, action: #selector(ViewController.refresh), for: UIControlEvents.valueChanged)

self.refreshControl = gearRefreshControl

}

Update state:


                                              
                                                override func scrollViewDidScroll(_ scrollView: UIScrollView) {

gearRefreshControl.scrollViewDidScroll(scrollView)

}

Stop the animation on completion:


                                              
                                                self.gearRefreshControl.endRefreshing()

Customization

You can customize the color of the control by setting the gearTintColor property:


                                              
                                                gearRefreshControl.gearTintColor = .red

Checkout the sample project for the full implementation.
