Controller

To start your slideshow just instantiate LightboxController, set needed delegates and present it:

// Create an array of images.
let images = [
  LightboxImage(imageURL: URL(string: "https://cdn.arstechnica.net/2011/10/05/iphone4s_sample_apple-4e8c706-intro.jpg")!),
  LightboxImage(
    image: UIImage(named: "photo1")!,
    text: "This is an example of a remote image loaded from URL"
  ),
  LightboxImage(
    image: UIImage(named: "photo2")!,
    text: "",
    videoURL: URL(string: "https://clips.vorwaerts-gmbh.de/big_buck_bunny.mp4")
  ),
  LightboxImage(
    image: UIImage(named: "photo3")!,
    text: "This is an example of a local image."
  )
]

// Create an instance of LightboxController.
let controller = LightboxController(images: images)

// Set delegates.
controller.pageDelegate = self
controller.dismissalDelegate = self

// Use dynamic background.
controller.dynamicBackground = true

// Present your controller.
present(controller, animated: true, completion: nil)

Delegates

Use LightboxControllerPageDelegate if you want to be notified about page navigation changes.

extension ViewController: LightboxControllerPageDelegate {

  func lightboxController(_ controller: LightboxController, didMoveToPage page: Int) {
    print(page)
  }
}

Use LightboxControllerDismissalDelegate to be notified when controller is about to be dismissed. Please note that LightboxController dismisses itself if it was presented initially.

extension ViewController: LightboxControllerDismissalDelegate: class {

  func lightboxControllerWillDismiss(_ controller: LightboxController) {
    // ...
  }
}

Image loading

By default images are loaded using Imaginary for reliable loading and caching. But it's easy to change this behavior using LightboxConfig

LightboxConfig.loadImage = {
  imageView, URL, completion in
  // Custom image loading
}

Video

Lightbox can show and plays video using default AVPlayerViewController. Showning video by using videoURL:

LightboxImage(
  image: UIImage(named: "photo2")!,
  text: "",
  videoURL: NSURL(string: "https://clips.vorwaerts-gmbh.de/big_buck_bunny.mp4")
)

Override video handling if needed:

LightboxConfig.handleVideo = { from, videoURL in
  // Custom video handling
  let videoController = AVPlayerViewController()
  videoController.player = AVPlayer(url: videoURL)

  from.present(videoController, animated: true) {
    videoController.player?.play()
  }
}

Configuration

Configure text, colors, fonts of UI elements by overriding the static variables in the Lightbox configuration struct. As an example:

LightboxConfig.CloseButton.image = UIImage(named: ImageList.Lightbox.closeButton)
LightboxConfig.CloseButton.textAttributes = TextAttributes.Lightbox.closeButton
LightboxConfig.CloseButton.text = "Finish"

LightboxConfig.DeleteButton.image = UIImage(named: ImageList.Lightbox.deleteButton)
LightboxConfig.DeleteButton.textAttributes = TextAttributes.Lightbox.deleteButton
LightboxConfig.DeleteButton.text = "Delete"

LightboxConfig.InfoLabel.ellipsisText = "Show more"
