Xamarin.iOS.ResourceDesigner

Build Nuget

Xamarin.iOS Resource designer generator, inspired by R.swift

Description

Resource generation tool for Xamarin.iOS projects. Use code generation to get access to all of your Image Assets and Xib files in the project. Get direct access to UIImage and UINib objects, without need for boilerplate code. Create only one instance: objects are created only if they're called, and each object is a singleton

Getting Started

Add Xamarin.iOS.ResourceDesigner NuGet Package to your Xamarin.iOS project (note, this package will work only with Xamarin.iOS projects) and run build. After the build you will have a Resource.designer.cs (unless you redefined it) file generated and included into your project build process. All the code, generated by this tool, is usable with Intellisense.

Additional features

There are several things you can customize to the code generation with special properties. Just add them to your csproj file to the main <PropertyGroup> node:

  • <ResourceDesignerFilePath> - defines the location of the Resource Designer file. The default value is "obj\$(Configuration)\$(Platform)\Resource.designer.cs". This path is relative to the location of the csproj file.
  • <ResourceDesignerImageAssetsTrimmingPrefixes> - defines the list of prefixes, divided by pipe symbol (|), that will be trimmed for the names of the image asset properties. The default value is "ic|img"
  • <ResourceDesignerImageAssetsFilenamesSeparatorChars> - defines symbols that separate words in the name of file, all characters written consequently in string. This property is important for the name parsing of properties. The default value is " _-+."
