Create tag clouds on iOS. Algorithm based on http://stackoverflow.com/a/1478314/1454634, using an Archimedean spiral
Install from cocoapods:
pod 'HPLTagCloudGenerator', '~> 0.0.3'
dispatch_async( dispatch_get_global_queue(DISPATCH_QUEUE_PRIORITY_DEFAULT, 0), ^{
// This runs in a background thread
// dictionary of tags
NSDictionary *tagDict = @{@"tag1": @3,
@"tag2": @5,
@"tag3": @7,
@"tag4": @2};
HPLTagCloudGenerator *tagGenerator = [[HPLTagCloudGenerator alloc] init];
tagGenerator.size = CGSizeMake(self.tagView.frame.size.width, self.tagView.frame.size.height);
tagGenerator.tagDict = tagDict;
NSArray *views = [tagGenerator generateTagViews];
dispatch_async( dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
// This runs in the UI Thread
for(UIView *v in views) {
// Add tags to the view we created it for
[self.tagView addSubview:v];
}
});
