I wasn't really able to find this in docs or somewhere, but is there a way to provide custom header and footer loaded from nib, using RxDatasources?
For example, I am dequeuing a cell like this:
let dataSource = RxTableViewSectionedAnimatedDataSource<CommentsSectionModel>(
configureCell: { dataSource, tableView, indexPath, item in
if let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier:
item.cellIdentifier, for: indexPath) as? BaseTableViewCell{
cell.setup(data: item.model)
return cell
}
return UITableViewCell()
})
I don't see that there is something along with configureCell
(except titleForHeaderInSection
) to let me dequeue/configure reusable header/footer (something what standard viewForHeaderInSection
and viewForFooterInSection
delegate methods are providing).
A custom Header/Footer is not part of the UITableViewDataSource interface so it's not something that an RxDataSource can provide.
If you want, you can follow my article on how to Convert a Swift Delegate to RxSwift Observables and make a table view delegate for this... It's not part of the library because table view delegates don't conform to a push interface.
extension Reactive where Base: UITableView {
var delegate: UITableViewDelegateProxy {
return UITableViewDelegateProxy.proxy(for: base)
}
var viewForHeaderInSection: Binder<[Int: UIView]> {
Binder(delegate) { del, value in
del.viewForHeaderInSection.accept(value)
}
}
var viewForFooterInSection: Binder<[Int: UIView]> {
Binder(delegate) { del, value in
del.viewForFooterInSection.accept(value)
}
}
}
final class UITableViewDelegateProxy
: DelegateProxy<UITableView, UITableViewDelegate>
, DelegateProxyType
, UITableViewDelegate {
public static func registerKnownImplementations() {
self.register { UITableViewDelegateProxy(parentObject: $0) }
}
static func currentDelegate(for object: UITableView) -> UITableViewDelegate? {
object.delegate
}
static func setCurrentDelegate(_ delegate: UITableViewDelegate?, to object: UITableView) {
object.delegate = delegate
}
init(parentObject: UITableView) {
super.init(
parentObject: parentObject,
delegateProxy: UITableViewDelegateProxy.self
)
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, viewForHeaderInSection section: Int) -> UIView? {
viewForHeaderInSection.value[section]
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, viewForFooterInSection section: Int) -> UIView? {
viewForFooterInSection.value[section]
}
fileprivate let viewForHeaderInSection = BehaviorRelay<[Int: UIView]>(value: [:])
fileprivate let viewForFooterInSection = BehaviorRelay<[Int: UIView]>(value: [:])
}
