Getting started

NotificationPresenter is a singleton. You don't need to initialize it anywhere. All examples are Swift code, but the class can be used in Objective-C as well. Also checkout the example project, which has many examples and includes a convenient style editor.

Here's some usage examples:

Showing a text notification

It's as simple as this:

NotificationPresenter.shared().present(text: "Hello World")

// with completion
NotificationPresenter.shared().present(text: "Hello World") { presenter in
   // ...
}

Dismissing a notification

NotificationPresenter.shared().dismiss(animated: true)

// with completion
NotificationPresenter.shared().dismiss(afterDelay: 0.5) { presenter in
   // ...
}

Showing activity

NotificationPresenter.shared().present(text: "")
NotificationPresenter.shared().displayActivityIndicator(true)

Showing a custom left view

let image = UIImageView(image: UIImage(systemName: "gamecontroller.fill"))
NotificationPresenter.shared().present(title: "Player II", subtitle: "Connected")
NotificationPresenter.shared().displayLeftView(image)

Showing progress

NotificationPresenter.shared().present(text: "Animating Progress…") { presenter in
  presenter.animateProgressBar(toPercentage: 1.0, animationDuration: 0.75) { presenter in
    presenter.dismiss()
  }
}

// or set an explicit percentage manually (without animation)
NotificationPresenter.shared().displayProgressBar(percentage: 0.0)

Using other included styles

There's a few included styles you can easily use with the following API:

NotificationPresenter.shared().present(text: "Yay, it works!", includedStyle: .success)

Using a custom UIView

If you want full control over the notification content and styling, you can use your own custom UIView.

// present a custom view
let button = UIButton(type: .system, primaryAction: UIAction { _ in
  NotificationPresenter.shared().dismiss()
})
button.setTitle("Dismiss!", for: .normal)
NotificationPresenter.shared().present(customView: button)

Customization

You have the option to easily create & use fully customized styles.

The closures of updateDefaultStyle() and addStyle(styleName: String) provide a copy of the default style, which can then be modified. See the JDStatusBarStyle class documentation for all options.

// update default style
NotificationPresenter.shared().updateDefaultStyle { style in
   style.backgroundStyle.backgroundColor = .red
   style.textStyle.textColor = .white
   style.textStyle.font = UIFont.preferredFont(forTextStyle: .title3)
   // and many more options
   return style
}

// set a named custom style
NotificationPresenter.shared().addStyle(styleName: "xxx") { style in
   // ...
   return style
}

Style Editor

Or checkout the example project, which contains a full style editor. You can tweak all customization options within the app, see the changes live and even export the configuration code for the newly created style to easily use it in your app.

Background Styles

There's two supported background styles:

/// The background is a floating pill around the text. The pill size and appearance can be customized. This is the default.
StatusBarNotificationBackgroundType.pill
/// The background covers the full display width and the full status bar + navbar height.
StatusBarNotificationBackgroundType.fullWidth

Animation Types

The supported animation types:

/// Slide in from the top of the screen and slide back out to the top. This is the default.
StatusBarNotificationAnimationType.move,
/// Fade-in and fade-out in place. No movement animation.
StatusBarNotificationAnimationType.fade,
/// Fall down from the top and bounce a little bit, before coming to a rest. Slides back out to the top.
StatusBarNotificationAnimationType.bounce,

Troubleshooting

No notifications are showing up

If your app uses a UIWindowScene the NotificationPresenter needs to know about it before you present any notifications. The library attempts to find the correct WindowScene automatically, but that might fail. If it fails no notifications will show up at all. You can explicitly set the window scene to resolve this:

NotificationPresenter.shared().setWindowScene(windowScene)
