GBInfiniteScrollView class provides an endlessly scroll view organized in pages. It is a subclass of UIScrollView, which allows users to scroll infinitely in horizontal and vertical direction. GBInfiniteScrollView also provides automatic scrolling feature.

A GBInfiniteScrollView object must have an object that acts as a data source and an object that acts as a delegate. The data source must adopt the GBInfiniteScrollViewDataSource protocol and the delegate must adopt the GBInfiniteScrollViewDelegate protocol. The data source provides the views that GBInfiniteScrollView needs to display. The delegate allows the adopting delegate to respond to scrolling operations.

GBInfiniteScrollView overrides the layoutSubviews method of UIView so that it calls reloadData only when you create a new instance of GBInfiniteScrollView or when you assign a new data source. Reloading the infinite scroll view clears current state, including the current view, but it is possible to specify the initial page index to display.

It is based on Apple StreetScroller iOS sample code.

GBInfiniteScrollView works on iOS 6.1 SDK or later and is compatible with ARC projects.

CocoaPods is the recommended way to add GBInfiniteScrollView to your project.

1. Add a pod entry for GBInfiniteScrollView to your Podfile pod 'GBInfiniteScrollView', '~> 1.8'
2. Install the pod(s) by running pod install.
3. Include GBInfiniteScrollView wherever you need it with #import <GBInfiniteScrollView/GBInfiniteScrollView.h>.

For the page control subclass.

1. Add a pod entry for GBInfiniteScrollView/PageControl to your Podfile pod 'GBInfiniteScrollView/PageControl'
2. Install the pod(s) by running pod install.
3. Include GBInfiniteScrollViewWithPageControl wherever you need it with #import <GBInfiniteScrollView/GBInfiniteScrollViewWithPageControl.h>.

You can directly add the header and implementation files to your project.

1. Download the latest code version.
2. Open your project in Xcode, then drag and drop the header and implementation files onto your project (use the "Product Navigator view"). Make sure to select Copy items when asked if you extracted the code archive outside of your project.
3. Include GBInfiniteScrollView wherever you need it with #import <GBInfiniteScrollView/GBInfiniteScrollView.h>.

You can also add GBInfiniteScrollView as a static library to your project or workspace.

1. Download the latest code version or add the repository as a git submodule to your git-tracked project.
2. Open your project in Xcode, then drag and drop GBInfiniteScrollView.xcodeproj onto your project or workspace (use the "Product Navigator view").
3. Select your target and go to the Build phases tab. In the Link Binary With Libraries section select the add button. On the sheet find and add libGBInfiniteScrollView.a. You might also need to add GBInfiniteScrollView to the Target Dependencies list.
4. Include GBInfiniteScrollView wherever you need it with #import <GBInfiniteScrollView/GBInfiniteScrollView.h>.

This is an example of use:

First, import GBInfiniteScrollView lib. Your view controller must conform to the GBInfiniteScrollViewDataSource and GBInfiniteScrollViewDelegate protocols.

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>

#import <GBInfiniteScrollView/GBInfiniteScrollView.h>

@interface GBViewController : UIViewController <GBInfiniteScrollViewDataSource, GBInfiniteScrollViewDelegate>

@end

Then, initialize a GBInfiniteScrollView new instance.

GBInfiniteScrollView *infiniteScrollView = [[GBInfiniteScrollView alloc] initWithFrame:self.view.bounds];

infiniteScrollView.infiniteScrollViewDataSource = self;
infiniteScrollView.infiniteScrollViewDelegate = self;

infiniteScrollView.pageIndex = 0;
    
[self.view addSubview:infiniteScrollView];
    
[infiniteScrollView reloadData];

[infiniteScrollView startAutoScroll];

Finally, implement the GBInfiniteScrollViewDataSource and GBInfiniteScrollViewDelegate protocols methods.

- (void)infiniteScrollViewDidScrollNextPage:(GBInfiniteScrollView *)infiniteScrollView
{
    NSLog(@"Next page");
}

- (void)infiniteScrollViewDidScrollPreviousPage:(GBInfiniteScrollView *)infiniteScrollView
{
    NSLog(@"Previous page");
}

- (BOOL)infiniteScrollViewShouldScrollNextPage:(GBInfiniteScrollView *)infiniteScrollView
{
    return YES;
}

- (BOOL)infiniteScrollViewShouldScrollPreviousPage:(GBInfiniteScrollView *)infiniteScrollView
{
    return YES;
}

- (NSInteger)numberOfPagesInInfiniteScrollView:(GBInfiniteScrollView *)infiniteScrollView
{
    return self.data.count;
}

- (GBInfiniteScrollViewPage *)infiniteScrollView:(GBInfiniteScrollView *)infiniteScrollView pageAtIndex:(NSUInteger)index;
{
    GBPageRecord *record = [self.data objectAtIndex:index];
    GBInfiniteScrollViewPage *page = [infiniteScrollView dequeueReusablePage];
    
    if (page == nil) {
        page = [[GBInfiniteScrollViewPage alloc] initWithFrame:self.view.bounds style:GBInfiniteScrollViewPageStyleText];
    }
    
    page.textLabel.text = record.text;
    page.textLabel.textColor = record.textColor;
    page.contentView.backgroundColor = record.backgroundColor;
    page.textLabel.font = [UIFont fontWithName: @"HelveticaNeue-UltraLight" size:128.0f];
    
    return page;
}
