UITextField-Blocks

Adds blocks to all UITextField delegate methods with a category, no subclassing. Also allows the use of delegate methods if no block is set.

Installation

Simply use CocoaPods:

pod 'UITextField+Blocks'

USAGE

TextFieldShouldBeginEditing

#import <UITextField+Blocks.h>
UITextField *aTextField;
[aTextField setShouldBegindEditingBlock:^BOOL(UITextField *textField) {
        // do your stuff here
        return YES;
}];
    

textFieldDidBeginEditing

[aTextField setDidBeginEditingBlock:^(UITextField *textField) {
        // do your stuff here
}];
    

textFieldShouldEndEditing

[aTextField setShouldEndEditingBlock:^BOOL(UITextField *textField) {
        // do your stuff here
        return YES;
  }];
    

textFieldDidEndEditing

[aTextField setDidEndEditingBlock:^BOOL(UITextField *textField) {
        // do your stuff here
  }];
    

textField:shouldChangeCharactersInRange:replacementString:

[aTextField setShouldChangeCharactersInRangeBlock:^BOOL(UITextField *textField, NSRange range, NSString *replacementString) {
        // do your stuff here
        return YES;
}];

textFieldShouldClear

[aTextField setShouldClearBlock:^BOOL(UITextField *textField) {
        // do your stuff here
        return NO;
}];

textFieldShouldReturn

[aTextField setShouldReturnBlock:^BOOL(UITextField *textField) {
        // do your stuff here
        return NO;
}];

Remember, you can also use ordinary delegate methods for all methods you don't define as blocks.

In this example, shouldBeginEditing is defined as a block, and didEndEditing is a delegate method

aTextField.delegate = self;

[aTextField setShouldBegindEditingBlock:^BOOL(UITextField *textField) {
        // do your stuff here
        return YES;
    }];

- (void)textFieldDidEndEditing:(UITextField *)textField
{
    // do your stuff here
}
