Embedding a star rating system in your iOS application is a breeze with the LCStarRatingView library. This open-source library, specifically designed for iOS, aids developers in rapidly integrating a star rating view in their apps. The library supports a rating range of 1 to 5 stars, and provides extensive customization options for star color, size, shape, and user interaction.
Here’s a snapshot of how the LCStarRatingView library can be utilized:
Basic Usage:
import UIKit
import LCStarRatingView
class ViewController: UIViewController {
@IBOutlet weak var starRatingView: LCStarRatingView!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Setting the number of stars
starRatingView.numberOfStars = 5
// Setting the color of the stars
starRatingView.starColor = .red
// Setting the size of the stars
starRatingView.starSize = 20
// Setting the shape of the stars
starRatingView.starShape = .circle
}
}
Interactivity:
import UIKit
import LCStarRatingView
class ViewController: UIViewController {
@IBOutlet weak var starRatingView: LCStarRatingView!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Setting star click action
starRatingView.didClickStar = { starRating in
print("Clicked on star number \(starRating)")
}
}
}
Additional Customizations:
// Setting the radius of the stars
starRatingView.starRadius = 10
// Setting the spacing between stars
starRatingView.starSpacing = 5
// Setting the border width of the stars
starRatingView.starBorderWidth = 1
