Description
A Swift library for animating labels and text fields using one line of code.
The library uses similar syntax to UIView's animate methods. It works even if there is text mixed in with numbers in the same label. The text remains intact while the digits get animated!
It works on both UILabels and UITextFields, and accepts any Numeric value (no need to type cast or convert). A completion handler lets you safely queue-up actions following the animation.
You can optionally specify animation curves and decimal points for the label.
It is completely safe to destroy or deallocate your label mid-animation, no strong reference is kept. The library is unit tested and checked for memory leaks

Quick Functions
You can get started with a simple one line function call
QuickTicker.animate(label: textLabel, toEndValue: 250)
The default duration is 2 seconds, but that can be easily changed
QuickTicker.animate(label: textLabel, toEndValue: 250, duration: 4.3)
You can also specify the animation curve
QuickTicker.animate(label: textLabel, toEndValue: 250, options: [.easeOut])
Advanced Quick Ticker
You can optionally specify the duration, the animation curve, decimal points, and add a completion handler to be executed at the end of the animation.
QuickTicker.animate(label: textLabel, toEndValue: 250, duration: 4.3, options: [.easeOut, .decimalPoints(2)], completion: {
print("Ticker animation done!")
})
