BDBAttributedButton is a UIButton subclass for iOS 7. Although many argue that one should not subclass UIButton, all BDBAttributedButton does is add a couple methods that make styling buttons in iOS applcations much simpler.
Take a look at the included demo app in order to get a full understanding of how BDBAttributedButton works.
To use BDBAttributedButton in you projects, you can simply add pod BDBAttributedButton, '~> 1.0.0' to your Podfile, if you're using CocoaPods. If you prefer the manual route, just add the contents of the BDBAttributedButton folder to your project. Super simple!
Taking inspiration from Apple's push to using NSAttributedStrings throughout iOS 7, BDBAttributedButton uses one simple method to set the style of a button. The currently supported customizations are:
- Corner Radius
- Fill Color
- Border Color
- Border Width
By using different combinations of these attributes, you can create a handful of different effects, such as a red button with a white label and a 5 pixel corner radius:
NSAttributedString *title =
[[NSAttributedString alloc] initWithString:@"Button"
attributes:@{NSForegroundColorAttributeName:[UIColor whiteColor]}];
BDBAttributedButton *button = [BDBAttributedButton new];
[button setStyleAttributes:@{BDBAttributedButtonCornerRadiusAttribute:@(5.f),
BDBAttributedButtonFillColorAttribute:[UIColor red]}
forControlState:UIControlStateNormal];
[button setAttributedTitle:title forControlState:UIControlStateNormal];
[button sizeToFit];BDBAttributedButton was created by Bradley David Bergeron.
