BTSimpleSideMenu

This is a simple side menu for iOS. Includes Blur background, callbacks using blocks & supports delegate patterns as well. Based on the UITableView, this menu provides a simple approach of creating a side menu for iOS apps.

Requirements

• Xcode 5 or higher
• Apple LLVM compiler
• iOS 7.1 or higher
• ARC

Demo

Build and run the btSimpleSideMenuDemo project in Xcode to see btSimpleSideMenu in action. The project by default uses left & right swipes to show and hide the menu & a doubble tap gesture to toggle the state.

Installation

1. Drag the file btSimpleSideMenu.h / btSimpleSideMenu.m and btSimpleMenuItem.h / btSimpleMenuItem.m to your project folder.
2. Maken an import statement for the file as #import"btSimpleSideMenu.h" .
3. Add to your project the QuartzCore framework & Accelerate Framework & make an import statement for both.

Initialization with Delegate pattern

4. For delegate pattern, use these method to initialize the menu with the titles & images as well, in your viewController.

-(instancetype) initWithItemTitles:(NSArray *)itemsTitle addToViewController:(id)sender;
-(instancetype) initWithItemTitles:(NSArray *)itemsTitle andItemImages:(NSArray *)itemsImage addToViewController:(UIViewController *)sender;

btSimpleSideMenu *sideMenu = [[btSimpleSideMenu alloc]initWithItemTitles:@[@"One", @"Two", @"Three", @"Four",@"Five", @"Six", @"Seven"] addToViewController:self];
[sideMenu toggleMenu];

btSimpleSideMenu *sideMenu = [[btSimpleSideMenu alloc]initWithItemTitles:@[@"One", @"Two", @"Three", @"Four",@"Five", @"Six", @"Seven"]
                                             andItemImages:@[
                                                             [UIImage imageNamed:@"icon1.jpeg"],
                                                             [UIImage imageNamed:@"icon2.jpeg"],
                                                             [UIImage imageNamed:@"icon3.jpeg"],
                                                             [UIImage imageNamed:@"icon4.jpeg"],
                                                             [UIImage imageNamed:@"icon5.jpeg"],
                                                             [UIImage imageNamed:@"icon6.jpeg"],
                                                             [UIImage imageNamed:@"icon7.jpeg"]
                                                             ]
                                       addToViewController:self];
    sideMenu.delegate = self;
    [sideMenu toggleMenu];

You can implement btSimpleSideMenuDelegate protocol to receive the following messages:

-(void)btSimpleSideMenu:(btSimpleSideMenu *)menu didSelectItemAtIndex:(NSInteger)index;
-(void)btSimpleSideMenu:(btSimpleSideMenu *)menu selectedItemTitle:(NSString *)title;

Initialization with callback Using Blocks

1. For callback using blocks, use these method to initialize the each menu item with tiles, images & block.

    btSimpleMenuItem *item1 = [[btSimpleMenuItem alloc]initWithTitle:@"One"
                                                               image:[UIImage imageNamed:@"icon1.jpeg"]
                                                        onCompletion:^(BOOL success, btSimpleMenuItem *item) {
                                                            
                                                            NSLog(@"I am Item 1");
                                                        }];
    
    btSimpleMenuItem *item2 = [[btSimpleMenuItem alloc]initWithTitle:@"Two"
                                                               image:[UIImage imageNamed:@"icon2.jpeg"]
                                                        onCompletion:^(BOOL success, btSimpleMenuItem *item) {
                                                            
                                                            NSLog(@"I am Item 2");
                                                        }];
    
    btSimpleMenuItem *item3 = [[btSimpleMenuItem alloc]initWithTitle:@"Three"
                                                               image:[UIImage imageNamed:@"icon3.jpeg"]
                                                        onCompletion:^(BOOL success, btSimpleMenuItem *item) {
                                                            
                                                            NSLog(@"I am Item 3");
                                                        }];
    
    btSimpleSideMenu *sideMenu = [[btSimpleSideMenu alloc]initWithItem:@[item1, item2, item3]
                                                   addToViewController:self];
