iOS develops third-party open source libraries

Iosios developing third-party open source libraries

1. afnetworking

In many iOS open source projects, afnetworking can be called the most popular library project for developers. Afnetworking is a lightweight iOS, MAC OS x network Communications Library and is now the third largest objective-c library on GitHub. It is based on the nsurlconnection, Nsoperation and other class libraries, so that many of the network communication functions are very easy to implement, so many iOS application development will use it.

• Support for HTTP requests and rest-based network services (including GET, POST, PUT, delete, etc.);

• Support Arc;

• Requires iOS 5.0 and later;

• There are some plugins to extend the existing functionality, there is a full-featured API;

• Getting the JSON from the URL is particularly straightforward.

2. Three20

THREE20 was originally a library of tools used in the iphone version of Facebook , including a series of iphone UI class sets such as the photo Viewer, as well as some common tools such as HTTP disk caching. Later stripped out of the Facebook iphone app, it became a common framework that developers love.

3. Facebook-ios-sdk

Earlier in the "most popular open source project on GitHub" Android series article (i) , we introduced the Facebook SDK for Android that allows developers to integrate Facebook into Android apps. Facebook SDK for iOS, like it, lets developers integrate Facebook-related features into their iOS apps.

Facebook is undoubtedly the most successful SNS community, and if it allows apps to integrate with Facebook, it's definitely going to be a good result. The Facebook SDK for iOS project is very frequent and wants to get more information about the samples, documentation, integrating the SDK into the app, the source code, and so on, which can be viewed directly on Facebook developers .

4. RestKit

Restkit is an open-source OBJECTIVE-C framework primarily for network communication on iOS, with core Data and the ability to map remote JSON to local objects in addition to the basic functions of sending requests and accepting responses.

Main Features:

• Simple interaction with RESTful Web Services in iOS and Mac OS x objective-c;

• Contains a simple HTTP request/response API;

• With a powerful object mapping system to reduce code length;

• Restkit reduces the resource consumption of json/xml processing and supports JSON parsing through Sbjson and YAJL.

Xmppframework has a very rich xep extension built on a modular architecture that developers can plug directly into the code and use GCD to make it work efficiently, even on very old iphone or 12-core Mac Pro.

Mgsplitviewcontroller.

For the sake of development, the Apple iOS SDK provides uisplitviewcontroller for the ipad sidebar interface display, but for developers, Uisplitviewcontroller is not easy to use, in the development process, there will always be a lot of problems. As a result, the talented iOS developer, Matt Gemmell, launched an open-source Uisplitview implementation called Mgsplitviewcontroller on GitHub, which is richer than the column class functionality provided by Apple's official UI components.

Initially, Matt was writing Mgsplitviewcontroller just to make it easy for him to use, but eventually Matt decided to open it up for all iOS developers to use. If you want to learn more about Mgsplitviewcontroller, you can visit the Matt Gemmell blog to view it, or click on the link to see the video demo (need to Flip & wall).

Pstcollectionview.

The Pstcollectionview is a 100% open source API compatible alternative to iOS 4.3 and above for Uicollectionview. If you want to use Uicollectionview, but still need to support the old version of iOS, then this project you will definitely like. If you want to always use Pstcollectionview, use Pstcollectionview as the class name.

Of course, if you want to use Pstcollectionview on iOS 4.3/5.x, but use Uicollectionview on iOS 6, you can add PS to all Uicollectionview classes to get automatic support for older iOS. This will allow you to use Psuicollectionview as you wish.

Cocoahttpserver.

Cocoahttpserver is a lightweight, embeddable HTTP server framework for Mac OS X or iOS apps. Sometimes developers need to embed an HTTP server in their app. Whether it's a server app with remote monitoring, a desktop app that uses HTTP for back-end communication, or an iOS app that provides wireless access to document functionality, Cocoahttpserver can meet your development requirements.

Cocoahttpserver provides the following features:

• Support for the Bonjour broadcasting built-in;

Psstackedview.

Psstackedview is able to stack your uiviewcontrollers and achieve an interface similar to the one used by the Twitter ipad app, says Peter Steinberger, project sponsor. Psstackedview's inspiration comes from the UI of Twitter's ipad.

To develop an ipad version of the very popular Austrian TV app "3MobileTV" , Peter created Psstackedview, a developer who can directly log in to the App store to download the app. Psstackedview can be run on the ipad and iphone, but it's more suitable for use on ipad.

Chameleon.

As an iOS developer, you should be familiar with Apple's Uikit framework for developing iphone, ipod and ipad apps. Chameleon is a completely independent framework that can be directly substituted for Uikit running on Mac OS X, and uikit the only common denominator is public class and method names. In most cases, developers do not need to change any code to run the developed iOS app directly on the Mac.

Chameleon's source code is based on Apple's documentation and is not used by any proprietary API or other technology that has not been approved by the Mac APP store. If you want to learn more about chameleon, you can visit the chameleonproject website directly.

Cocos2d-iphone-extensions.

Cocos2d-iphone-extensions integrates a lot of excellent third-party extensions for Cocos2d-iphone engines. The project does not make any changes to cocos2d, but adds new features to the cocos2d-iphone-extensions for developers to use.

Dcintrospect.

Introspect is a very small set of iOS tools that help developers debug the user interface built using Uikit. Ideal for dynamically creating UI layouts, changing runtimes, and optimizing application performance by looking for transparent views, and avoiding unnecessary redrawing of views.

Pscollectionview.

Pscollectionview is an iOS scrolling component that implements the Pinterest-style waterfall Flow view display, and can be used in similar uitableview to support displaying pictures and text.

The project sponsor, Peter Shih, uses Pscollectionview source code in his own Iphone/ipad app Lunchbox , and developers can download the app for free in the App store.

Panax Sdurlcache.

Nsurlcache and its subclasses provide a number of advanced interfaces for handling caching, but if you want to store the cache on disk in your iphone app in the same way as HTTP requests, we recommend using Sdurlcache. The Sdurlcache project that Peter Steinberger hosted on GitHub is a sdurlcache branch of Olivier Poitrey that supports the following versions of iOS 5.

Fastpdfkit.

The Open Source library contains some sample projects for the Fastpdfkit iOS library. Fastpdfkit is a development library that lets you display PDF documents in an iOS app, with the biggest feature being the ability to load PDF documents very quickly.

For more information, please refer to:Fastpdfkit official website

Kkgridview.

Kkgridview is a high-performance iOS form component, but Kkgridview has gradually ceased to use it since Apple introduced the relevant solution at the WWDC 2012 conference. The iOS Open source project will also have a new round of changes every iOS system update, and what will happen to iOS open source projects after the release of iOS 7, which has revolutionized Apple's previous design concept? And see the Genius developers!

MGBox2.

MGBox2 can achieve a very cool list interaction, use the fewest code, quickly create various layout effects of the iOS table, grid, support new and delete grids, dynamically add or delete lists, adding multiple lines of text, pictures, etc. in the table, support gesture recognition and custom events.

Drop- down Refresh List component SvpulltorefreshSvpulltorefresh allows you to add a drop-down refresh to the Uiscrollview subcategory through a single line of code, without relying on delegates or subclasses Uitableviewcontroller. In addition, the project supports simple custom text and the appearance of arrows. These uiscrollview categories make the drop-down refresh and Uiscrollview infinite scrolling very simple, Svpulltorefresh use OBJECTIVE-C Runtime to add the following 3 methods to Uiscrollview:-(void) Addpulltorefreshwithactionhandler: (void (^) (void)) actionhandler;-(void) Addpulltorefreshwithactionhandler: (Void ( ^) (void)) Actionhandler position: (svpulltorefreshposition) position;-(void) Addinfinitescrollingwithactionhandler :(void (^) (void)) Actionhandler;
