Swift-imgui

Personal WIP

Immediate mode GUI Library from Omar Cornut wrapped for use with Swift, inspired from Cinder-ImGui

Installation with Carthage

Add following to Cartfile:

github "mnmly/Swift-imgui" "master"

Then follow the standard carthage installation process.

Usage

import UIKit
import ImGui

class ViewController: UIViewController {
    
    var myView: UIView = UIView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 20, height: 20))
    var viewOffset: CGPoint = CGPoint.zero
    
    override func viewDidLoad() {
        
        super.viewDidLoad()
        
        myView.backgroundColor = UIColor(hue:0.592, saturation:0.904, brightness:0.980, alpha:1.000)
        
        myView.center = view.center
        
        view.addSubview(myView)
        
        // Initialize with Metal Graphics API for drawing
        ImGui.initialize(.metal)
        
        if let vc = ImGui.vc {
            // Add viewController and view to scene
            addChildViewController(vc)
            view.addSubview(vc.view)
            vc.view.frame = CGRect(x: 0, y: view.frame.height * 0.7, width: view.frame.width, height: view.frame.height * 0.3)
        }
        
        ImGui.draw { (imgui) in
            
            // Setting Window Position and window size
            imgui.setNextWindowPos(CGPoint.zero, cond: .always)
            imgui.setNextWindowSize(self.view.frame.size)

            imgui.begin("Hello ImGui on Swift")

            // Setting the font scale
            imgui.setWindowFontScale(UIScreen.main.scale)
            
            
            // When button is clicked...
            if imgui.button("rotate me") {
                // rotate me
                self.myView.transform = CGAffineTransform.identity
                UIViewPropertyAnimator(duration: 1.0, dampingRatio: 0.9, animations: {
                    self.myView.transform = CGAffineTransform.init(rotationAngle: 180.0)
                }).startAnimation()
            }
            
            imgui.sliderFloat("cornerRadius", v: &self.myView.layer.cornerRadius, minV: 0.0, maxV: 10.0)
            imgui.sliderFloat2("offset", v: &self.viewOffset, minV: -100.0, maxV: 100.0)
            imgui.sliderFloat2("size", v: &self.myView.bounds.size, minV: 5.0, maxV: 100.0)
            imgui.colorEdit("backgroundColor", color: &(self.myView.backgroundColor)!)
            imgui.end()
            
            var center = self.view.center
            center.x += self.viewOffset.x
            center.y += self.viewOffset.y
            self.myView.center = center
        }
    }
}

Todo

• Keyboard Events on iOS
• Exposing more API to Swift

_{(ImGui is free but Omar needs your support to sustain development and maintenance. If you work for a company, please consider financial support)}

ImGui is a bloat-free graphical user interface library for C++. It outputs vertex buffers that you can render in your 3D-pipeline enabled application. It is portable, renderer agnostic and self-contained (no external dependencies). It is based on an "immediate mode" graphical user interface paradigm which enables you to build user interfaces with ease.

ImGui is designed to enable fast iteration and empower programmers to create content creation tools and visualization/debug tools (as opposed to UI for the average end-user). It favors simplicity and productivity toward this goal, and thus lacks certain features normally found in more high-level libraries.

ImGui is particularly suited to integration in realtime 3D applications, fullscreen applications, embedded applications, games, or any applications on consoles platforms where operating system features are non-standard.

Developed by Omar Cornut and every direct or indirect contributors to the GitHub. The early version of this library was developed with the support of Media Molecule and first used internally on the game Tearaway.

I first discovered imgui principles at Q-Games where Atman had dropped his own simple imgui implementation in the codebase, which I spent quite some time improving and thinking about. It turned out that Atman was exposed to the concept directly by working with Casey. When I moved to Media Molecule I rewrote a new library trying to overcome the flaws and limitations of the first one I've worked with. It became this library and since then I have spent an unreasonable amount of time iterating on it.
