FlaneurImageView

final public class FlaneurImageView: UIImageView

A utility wrapping UIImageView so that we can set images from descriptors and cancel asynchronous operations when relevant and necessary.

Since an extension wouldn’t allow to store information, subclassing UIImageView was necessary.

  • Specifies if Photos Assets should be fetched as thumbnails or not.

    Declaration

    Swift

    public var assetThumbnailMode: Bool = false

  • Sets the image using an image descriptor.

    Declaration

    Swift

    public func setImage(with imageDescription: FlaneurImageDescriptor)

    Parameters

    imageDescription

    the descriptor of the image being used.

  • Prepares the instance to be reused.

    Since some asynchronous operations might be in progress, you should call this method to cancel them before reusing the instance. For instance, if the instance has a UITableViewCell parent view, calling this method is necessary to avoid races between operations.

    Declaration

    Swift

    public func prepareForReuse()
