A Xamarin iOS port for https://github.com/EddyBorja/MLPAutoCompleteTextField
Only basic functionality works for now. It is nowhere near completion. The sorting alghorithm is not implemented yet and customcell don't work yet.
Feel free to contact me or to just contribute to make this project production ready.
You can do this in the interface builder
- this one uses a google location api
public class MyDataSource : IMLPAutoCompleteTextFieldDataSource
{
private MapsPlaceAutoComplete autoCompleteMaps = new MapsPlaceAutoComplete();
#region MLPAutoCompleteTextFieldDataSource implementation
public async Task AutoCompleteTextField (MLPAutoComplete.MLPAutoCompleteTextField textField, string possibleCompletionsForString, Action<IEnumerable> completionHandler)
{
var result = await autoCompleteMaps.AutoComplete (textField.Text);
var strings = result.Select (rs => rs.description).ToList ();
completionHandler (strings);
}
public async Task<string[]> AutoCompleteTextField (MLPAutoCompleteTextField textField, string possibleCompletionsForString)
{
throw new NotImplementedException ();
}
#endregion
}- Or your own dataset
public class MyDataSource : IMLPAutoCompleteTextFieldDataSource
{
IEnumerable<string> countries = new List<string>(){"Abkhazia","Afghanistan","Aland","Albania","Algeria"};
#region MLPAutoCompleteTextFieldDataSource implementation
public async Task AutoCompleteTextField (MLPAutoComplete.MLPAutoCompleteTextField textField, string possibleCompletionsForString, Action<IEnumerable> completionHandler)
{
completionHandler (countries);
}
public async Task<string[]> AutoCompleteTextField (MLPAutoComplete.MLPAutoCompleteTextField textField, string possibleCompletionsForString)
{
throw new NotImplementedException ();
}
#endregion
}var field = autoTextField;
field.Setup (new MyDataSource (), false);
