Installation


  1. Manually – Add HHTabBarView/Source folder to your Project. And you’re good to use HHTabBarView.

  2. CocoaPods: – pod 'HHTabBarView'

  3. You can read the CHANGELOG file for a particular release.

Setup


Important: Please note that HHTabBarView is currently not supports UIStoryBoard. Means, you will have to create HHTabBarView programmatically. It is advised to setup HHTabBarView in AppDelegate.swift for your easyness.

  1. Initialize and keeping reference of HHTabBarView. 📌

let hhTabBarView = HHTabBarView.shared

  1. Keeping reference of iOS default UITabBarController. 📌

let referenceTabBarController = HHTabBarView.shared.referenceUITabBarController

  1. Setup referenced UITabBarController 📌

func setupReferenceUITabBarController() -> Void {

//Creating a storyboard reference
let storyboard = UIStoryboard.init(name: “Main”, bundle: Bundle.main)

//Creating navigation controller for navigation inside the first tab.
let navigationController1: UINavigationController = UINavigationController.init(rootViewController: storyboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: “FirstViewControllerID”))

//Creating navigation controller for navigation inside the second tab.
let navigationController2: UINavigationController = UINavigationController.init(rootViewController: storyboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: “SecondViewControllerID”))

//Update referenced TabbarController with your viewcontrollers
referenceTabBarController.setViewControllers([navigationController1, navigationController2], animated: false)
}

  1. Setup HHTabBarView 📌

//Update HHTabBarView reference with the tabs requires.
func setupHHTabBarView() -> Void {

//Default & Selected Background Color
let defaultTabColor = UIColor.white
let selectedTabColor = UIColor.init(red: 234/255, green: 218/255, blue: 195/255, alpha: 1.0)
let tabFont = UIFont.init(name: “Helvetica-Light”, size: 14.0)

//Create Custom Tabs
let t1 = HHTabButton.init(withTitle: “Calendar”, tabImage: UIImage.init(named: “Calendar”)!, index: 0)
t1.titleLabel?.font = tabFont
t1.titleLabel?.textColor = UIColor.black
t1.setHHTabBackgroundColor(color: defaultTabColor, forState: .normal)
t1.setHHTabBackgroundColor(color: selectedTabColor, forState: .selected)

let t2 = HHTabButton.init(withTitle: “Refresh”, tabImage: UIImage.init(named: “Refresh”)!, index: 1)
t2.titleLabel?.font = tabFont
t2.titleLabel?.textColor = UIColor.black
t2.setHHTabBackgroundColor(color: defaultTabColor, forState: .normal)
t2.setHHTabBackgroundColor(color: selectedTabColor, forState: .selected)

//Note: As HHTabButton are subclassed of UIButton so you can modify it as much as possible.

//Set Custom Tabs
hhTabBarView.tabBarTabs = [t1, t2]

//Set Default Index for HHTabBarView.
hhTabBarView.defaultIndex = 1

//Show Animation on Switching Tabs
hhTabBarView.tabChangeAnimationType = .none

//Handle Tab Change Event
hhTabBarView.onTabTapped = { (tabIndex) in
print(“Selected Tab Index:\(tabIndex)”)
}
}

  1. Setup window of your application inside the 📌

func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplicationLaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
// Override point for customization after application launch.

//Setup HHTabBarView
setupReferenceUITabBarController()
setupHHTabBarView()

//Setup Application Window
self.window = UIWindow.init(frame: UIScreen.main.bounds)
self.window?.rootViewController = self.referenceTabBarController
self.window?.makeKeyAndVisible()

return true
}

  1. Done! ✅
