### Sample App
The iOS Sample App included with this project demonstrates one way to correctly setup and use **BEMCheckBox**. It also offers the possibility to customize the checkbox within the app.
### React Native
**BEMCheckBox** can be used with React Native: [React-Native-BEMCheckBox](https://github.com/torifat/react-native-bem-check-box)
### NativeScript
**BEMCheckBox** can be used with NativeScript: [NativeScript-BEMCheckBox](https://github.com/nstudio/nativescript-checkbox)
### Xamarin
**BEMCheckBox** can also be used with Xamarin: [XPlugins.iOS.BEMCheckBox](https://github.com/saturdaymp/XPlugins.iOS.BEMCheckBox)
## Getting Started
It only takes a few simple steps to install and setup **BEMCheckBox** to your project.
### Installation
#### Swift Package Manager
Add `https://github.com/Boris-Em/BEMCheckBox` as a dependency to your Package.swift file or select `File -> Swift Packages -> Add Package Dependency...` in Xcode.
#### CocoaPods
The easiest way to install **BEMCheckBox** is to use CocoaPods. To do so, simply add the following line to your `Podfile`:
pod 'BEMCheckBox'
#### Carthage
[Carthage](https://github.com/Carthage/Carthage) is a decentralized dependency manager that builds your dependencies and provides you with binary frameworks.
Run `carthage update` after adding **BEMCheckBox** to your Cartfile to build the framework. Drag the built `BEMCheckBox.framework` into your Xcode project.
#### Manually
Finally, you can install **BEMCheckBox** manually. Simply drag and drop the *Classes* folder into your Xcode project. When you do so, make sure to check the "*Copy items into destination group's folder*" box.
### Setup
Setting up **BEMCheckBox** to your project couldn't be more simple. It is modeled after `UISwitch`. In fact, you could just replace instances of `UISwitch` by **BEMCheckBox** in your project!
Here are the steps to follow to get everything up and running:
1. Import `"BEMCheckBox.h"` to the header of your view controller:
```objective-c
#import "BEMCheckBox.h"
```
2. **BEMCheckBox** can either be initialized programatically (through code) or with Interface Builder (Storyboard file). Use the method that makes the most sense for your project.
**Programmatical Initialization**
Just add the following code to your implementation (usually in the `viewDidLoad` method of your View Controller).
```objective-c
BEMCheckBox *myCheckBox = [[BEMCheckBox alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 50, 50)];
[self.view addSubview:myCheckBox];
```
**Interface Builder Initialization**
1 - Drag a `UIView` to your `UIViewController`.
2 - Change the class of the new `UIView` to `BEMCheckBox`.
3 - Select the `BEMCheckBox` and open the Attributes Inspector. Most of the customizable properties can easily be set from the Attributes Inspector. The Sample App demonstrates this capability.
## Documentation
All of the methods and properties available for **BEMCheckBox** are documented below.
### Enabling / Disabling the Checkbox
##### The `on` Property
Just like `UISwitch`, **BEMCheckBox** provides the boolean property `on` that allows you to retrieve and set (without animation) a value determining wether the BEMCheckBox object is `on` or `off`. Defaults to `NO`.
Example usage:
```objective-c
self.myCheckBox.on = YES;
```
##### `setOn:animated:`
Just like `UISwitch`, **BEMCheckBox** provides an instance method `setOn:animated:` that sets the state of the checkbox to On or Off, optionally animating the transition.
Example usage:
```objective-c
[self.myCheckBox setOn:YES animated:YES];
```
### Reloading
The instance method `reload` lets you redraw the entire checkbox, keeping the current `on` value.
Example usage:
```objective-c
[self.myCheckBox reload]
```
### Group / Radio Button Functionality
**BEMCheckBox**es can easily be grouped together to form radio button functionality. This will automatically manage the state of each checkbox in the group, so that only one is selected at a time, and can optionally require that the group has a selection at all times.
```objective-c
self.group = [BEMCheckBoxGroup groupWithCheckBoxes:@[self.checkBox1, self.checkBox2, self.checkBox3]];
self.group.selectedCheckBox = self.checkBox2; // Optionally set which checkbox is pre-selected
self.group.mustHaveSelection = YES; // Define if the group must always have a selection
```
To see which checkbox is selected in that group, just ask for it:
```objective-c
BEMCheckBox *selection = self.group.selectedCheckBox;
```
To manually update the selection for a group, just set it:
```objective-c
self.group.selectedCheckBox = self.checkBox1;
```
### Delegate
**BEMCheckBox** uses a delegate to receive check box events. The delegate object must conform to the `BEMCheckBoxDelegate` protocol, which is composed of two optional methods:
- `didTapCheckBox:`
Sent to the delegate every time the check box gets tapped, after its properties are updated (`on`), but before the animations are completed.
- `animationDidStopForCheckBox:`
Sent to the delegate every time the check box finishes being animated.
### Customization
**BEMCheckBox** is exclusively customizable though properties.
The following diagram provides a good overview:
##### Apparence Properties
`lineWidth` - CGFloat
The width of the lines of the check mark and box. Defaults to 2.0.
`hideBox` - BOOL
BOOL to control if the box should be hidden or not. Setting this property to `YES` will essentially turn the checkbox into a check mark. Defaults to `NO`.
`boxType` - BEMBoxType
The type of box to use. See `BEMBoxType` for possible values. Defaults to `BEMBoxTypeCircle`.
`tintColor` - UIColor
The color of the box when the checkbox is Off.
`onCheckColor` - UIColor
The color of the check mark when it is On.
`onFillColor` - UIColor
The color of the inside of the box when it is On.
`onTintColor` - UIColor
The color of the line around the box when it is On.
##### Animations
`animationDuration` - CGFloat
The duration in seconds of the animations. Defaults to `0.5`.
`onAnimationType` - BEMAnimationType
The type of animation to use when the checkbox gets checked. Defaults to `BEMAnimationTypeStroke`. See `BEMAnimationType` bellow for possible values.
`offAnimationType` - BEMAnimationType
The type of animation to use when the checkbox gets unchecked. Defaults to `BEMAnimationTypeStroke`. See `BEMAnimationType` bellow for possible values.
`BEMAnimationType`
The possible values for `onAnimationType` and `offAnimationType`.
- `BEMAnimationTypeStroke`
- `BEMAnimationTypeFill`
- `BEMAnimationTypeBounce`
- `BEMAnimationTypeFlat`
- `BEMAnimationTypeOneStroke`
- `BEMAnimationTypeFade`
