IGListUpdatingDelegate

@protocol IGListUpdatingDelegate

Implement this protocol in order to handle both section and row based update events. Implementation should forward or coalesce these events to a backing store or collection.

  • Asks the delegate for the pointer functions for looking up an object in a collection.

    Note

    Since the updating delegate is responsible for transitioning between object sets, it becomes the source of truth for how objects and their corresponding section controllers are mapped. This allows the updater to control if objects are looked up by pointer, or more traditionally, with -hash/-isEqual.

    For behavior similar to NSDictionary, simply return +[NSPointerFunctions pointerFunctionsWithOptions:NSPointerFunctionsObjectPersonality].

    Declaration

    Objective-C

    - (nonnull NSPointerFunctions *)objectLookupPointerFunctions;

    Swift

    func objectLookupPointerFunctions() -> Any!

    Return Value

    Pointer functions for looking up an object in a collection.

  • Tells the delegate to perform a section transition from an old array of objects to a new one.

    Note

    Implementations determine how to transition between objects. You can perform a diff on the objects, reload each section, or simply call -reloadData on the collection view. In the end, the collection view must be setup with a section for each object in the toObjects array.

    The objectTransitionBlock block should be called prior to making any UICollectionView updates, passing in the toObjects that the updater is applying.

    Declaration

    Objective-C

    - (void)
performUpdateWithCollectionView:(nonnull UICollectionView *)collectionView
                    fromObjects:
                        (nullable NSArray<id<IGListDiffable>> *)fromObjects
                      toObjects:
                          (nullable NSArray<id<IGListDiffable>> *)toObjects
                       animated:(BOOL)animated
          objectTransitionBlock:

    Parameters

    collectionView

    The collection view on which to perform the transition.
    indexPaths

    The index paths to delete items from.

  • Tells the delegate to perform item reloads at the given index paths.

    Declaration

    Objective-C

    - (void)reloadItemsInCollectionView:(nonnull UICollectionView *)collectionView
                         indexPaths:
                             (nonnull NSArray<NSIndexPath *> *)indexPaths;

    Swift

    func reloadItems(inCollectionView collectionView: Any!, indexPaths: Any!)

    Parameters

    collectionView

    The collection view on which to perform the transition.
    indexPaths

    The index paths of items to reload.

  • Completely reload data in the collection.
