🌋 Powerful, Clean, Elegant Initialisation Sugar 🌋

This is a small syntactic extension to NSObject that makes it easier for you to initilialize your object in a very Swifty way.

• this() is an extension on all NSObject subclasses

  let fileManager = FileManager().this {
     $0.urls(for: .applicationDirectory, in: .userDomainMask)
  }

  Clean up your initialization Code

let tableView = UITableView().this {
    $0.backgroundColor = .white
    $0.register(UserCell.self, forCellReuseIdentifier: "CellID")
    $0.separatorStyle = .none
    $0.allowsSelection = false
}

Initialize in this way.

  let tableView : UITableView = {
      let table = UITableView()
      table.backgroundColor = .white
      table.register(UserCell.self, forCellReuseIdentifier: "CellID")
      table.separatorStyle = .none
      table.allowsSelection = false
      return table
  }()

• Use your own Types With a simple Extension

  extension CustomType: This {}
  
  let instance = CustomType().this {
    $0.color = .blue
    $0.label.text = "Custom Type"
  }

class LoginViewController : UIViewController {
    var loginButton = UIButton().this {
        $0.setTitle("Login", for: .normal)
        $0.backgroundColor = . yellow
        $0.layer.masksToBounds = true
        $0.layer.cornerRadius = 5
    }
    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        view.addSubview(loginButton)
    }
}
