Artsy Engineering: MVVM in Swift

MODELlet amount = 6729383.99

VIEWYour balance is $6,729,383.99

VIEWMODELstruct AccountViewModel { let displayBalance: String

init(model: BankAccount) { let formattedBalance = model.balance.currencyValue displayBalance = "Your balance is \(formattedBalance)" }}

VIEWCONTROLLERvar viewModel = ViewModel(model: Account)

VIEWCONTROLLERvar viewModel = ViewModel(model: Account)

PROTOCOLS!!!

THE PROBLEMclass SwitchWithTextTableViewCell: UITableViewCell {

func configure( title: String, titleFont: UIFont, titleColor: UIColor, switchOn: Bool, switchColor: UIColor = .purpleColor(), onSwitchToggleHandler: onSwitchToggleHandlerType? = nil) { // configure views here }

}

PROTOCOLS TO THE RESCUE !

protocol SwitchWithTextCellProtocol { var title: String { get } var titleFont: UIFont { get } var titleColor: UIColor { get }

var switchOn: Bool { get } var switchColor: UIColor { get }

func onSwitchTogleOn(on: Bool)}

extension SwitchWithTextCellProtocol {

var switchColor: UIColor { return .purpleColor() }

}

class SwitchWithTextTableViewCell: UITableViewCell {

func configure(withDelegate delegate: SwitchWithTextCellProtocol) { // configure views here }

}

struct MinionModeViewModel: SwitchWithTextCellProtocol { var title = "Minion Mode!!!" var switchOn = true

var switchColor: UIColor { return .yellowColor() }

func onSwitchTogleOn(on: Bool) { if on { print("The Minions are here to stay!") } else { print("The Minions went out to play!") } }}

CELLFORROWATINDEXPATH// YourViewController.swiftlet cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("SwitchWithTextTableViewCell", forIndexPath: indexPath) as! SwitchWithTextTableViewCell
