VENTokenField

VENTokenField is the recipients token field that is used in the Venmo compose screen.

Installation

The easiest way to get started is to use CocoaPods. Just add the following line to your Podfile:

pod 'VENTokenField', '~> 2.0'

Usage

If you've ever used a UITableView, using VENTokenField should be a breeze.

Similar to UITableView, VENTokenField provides three protocols: <VENTokenFieldDelegate>, <VENTokenFieldDataSource> and <VENTokenSuggestionDataSource>.

VENTokenFieldDelegate

This protocol notifies you when things happen in the token field that you might want to know about.

• tokenField:didEnterText: is called when a user hits the return key on the input field or after a suggestion is tapped..
• tokenField:didSelectSuggestion:forPartialText:atIndex: is called when a user taps on a suggested value in the suggestion list.
• tokenField:didDeleteTokenAtIndex: is called when a user deletes a token at a particular index.
• tokenField:didChangeText: is called when a user changes the text in the input field.
• tokenFieldDidBeginEditing: is called when the input field becomes first responder.

VENTokenFieldDataSource

This protocol allows you to provide info about what you want to present in the token field.

Implement...

• tokenField:titleForTokenAtIndex: to specify what the title for the token at a particular index should be.
• numberOfTokensInTokenField: to specify how many tokens you have.
• tokenFieldCollapsedText: to specify what you want the token field to say in the collapsed state.

VENTokenSuggestionDataSource

This entirely optional protocol allows you to provide info for any suggestions presented to the user.

Implement...

• tokenFieldShouldPresentSuggestions: to specify that you want to present suggested values for tokens.
• tokenField:numberOfSuggestionsForPartialText: to specify the number of suggestions for a given input.
• tokenField:suggestionTitleForPartialText:atIndex: to specify what the title for a suggestion at a particular index should be.
