ALEInlineDatePickerViewController

View Controller to display a date picker inline in a tableview iOS7 style

This view controller simplifies the presentation of a date picker inline in a tableview. The dates inserted by the user can be accessed with the corresponding date picker's indexPath.

Usage

Subclass to use (see the provided example).

Subclasses MUST do at least 2 things:

• provide an array of indexPaths from which the date picker can be displayed (datePickerPossibleIndexPaths)

     - (void)viewDidLoad
    {
        [super viewDidLoad];
    	
        //...
    	
        //tell the controller where the date picker can be shown from in the tableview
        self.datePickerPossibleIndexPaths = @[[NSIndexPath indexPathForRow:2 inSection:0],
                                              [NSIndexPath indexPathForRow:1 inSection:1]];
    	
        //...
    }
  

• call super in the tableview delegate & datasource before their implementation

    - (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section
    {
    //add this value to your own calculations
        NSInteger numberOfRows = [super tableView:tableView numberOfRowsInSection:section];
        //...
        return numberOfRows;
    }
    
    // Customize the appearance of table view cells.
    - (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
    {
        static NSString *CellIdentifier = @"Cell";
        
        UITableViewCell *cell = [super tableView:tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath];;
        if (cell == nil) {
    		//your implementation goes here
    		
    		//this utility method adjusts the index path for datasource access based on the presence of the date picker in the table
    		//NSIndexPath *adjustedIndexPath = [self adjustedIndexPathForDatasourceAccess:indexPath];
  
        }		
        return cell;
    }
    
    - (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
    {
        CGFloat rowHeight = [super tableView:tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath];
        if (rowHeight == 0) {
    		//your implementation goes here	
        }
        return rowHeight;
    }
    
    - (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
    {
        [super tableView:tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:indexPath];
        
        //your implementation here
    }
