This version adds more autocomplete functionality:

• AutocompleteToolbar has a new convenience initializer that makes it even easier to setup autocomplete.
• AutocompleteToolbarLabel is the default autocomplete item view and can be tapped to send text to the text document proxy.
• AutocompleteToolbarLabel behaves like the native iOS autocomplete view and displays centered text until the text must scroll.
• Autocomplete no longer requires the bugfix timer to work. Instead, just let the action handler request autocomplete suggestions.

The StandardKeyboardActionHandler has new functionality:

• animationButtonTap() - can be overridden to change the default animation of tapped buttons.

Deprecations:

• The AutocompleteBugFixTimer and all timer-related logic has been deprecated.
• The AutoCompleteSuggestionProvider's provideAutocompleteSuggestions(for:completion:) is deprecated and replaced with autocompleteSuggestions(for:completion:).
• The StandardKeyboardActionHandler's handleXXX(on:) are now deprecated and replaced with handle(:on:view:).

2.5.0 adds new features (like audio feedback), tweaks some behaviors and deprecates some logic:

New stuff:

• There is a new KeyboardActionGesture that will be used to streamline the action handling api:s.
• There is a new AudioFeedback enum that describes various types of audio feedback.
• There is a new AudioFeedbackConfiguration that lets you gather all configurations in one place.
• There is a new HapticFeedback.standardFeedback(for:) function that replaces the old specific properties.
• There is a new HapticFeedbackConfiguration that lets you gather all configurations in one place.
• There is a new StandardKeyboardActionHandler init that uses this new configuration.
• There is a new StandardKeyboardActionHandler.triggerAudioFeedback(for:) that can be used to trigger audio feedback.
• There is a new StandardKeyboardActionHandler.triggerHapticFeedback(for:on:) that replaces the old gesture-specific ones.
• There is a new StandardKeyboardActionHandler.gestureAction(for:) function that is used by the implementation. The old ones are still around.
• There is a new KeyboardType.images case that is used by the demo.

Changed behavior:

• There is a new standardButtonShadow Shadow property that can be used to mimic the native button shadow.

Deprecated stuff:

• The old StandardKeyboardActionHandler.init(...) is deprecated, use the new one.
• The old StandardKeyboardActionHandler.giveHapticFeedbackForLongPress(...) is deprecated, use the new one.
• The old StandardKeyboardActionHandler.giveHapticFeedbackForRepeat(...) is deprecated, use the new one.
• The old StandardKeyboardActionHandler.giveHapticFeedbackForTap(...) is deprecated, use the new one.
• The old HapticFeedback.standardTapFeedback and standardLongPressFeedback have been replaced by the new function.

The old handle functions are still declared in the KeyboardActionHandler protocol, but will be removed in the next major version.

This version adds Xcode 11 and iOS 13 support, including support for dark mode and high contrast color variants.

This version adds autocomplete support, which includes an autocomplete suggestion provider protocol, a new toolbar and new extensions.

The new AutocompleteSuggestionProvider protocol describes how to provide your keyboard with autocomplete suggestions. You can implement it in any way you like, e.g. to use a built-in suggestion database or by connecting to an external data source, using network requests. Note that the network option will be a lot slower and also require you to request full access from your users.

The new AutocompleteToolbar is a toolbar that can display any results you receive from your suggestion provider (or any list of strings for that matter). Just trigger the provider anytíme the text changes and route the result to the toolbar. The toolbar can be populated with any kind of views. Have a look at the demo app for an example.

The new UITextDocumentProxy+CurrentWord extension helps you get the word that is (most probably) being typed. You could use this when requesting autocomplete suggestions, if you only want to autocomplete the current word.

Besides these additions, there are a bunch of new extensions, like UITextDocumentProxy deleteBackwards(times:), which lets you delete a certain number of characters. Have a look at the Extensions namespace for a complete list.

There is also a new KeyboardShiftState enum that you can use to keep track of which state your keyboard has, if any. This enum is extracted from demo app code that was provided by @arampak earlier this year.

IMPORTANT iOS has a bug that causes textWillChange and textDidChange to not be called when the user types, only when the cursor moves. This causes autocomplete problems, since the current word is not changing as the user types. Due to this, the input view controller must use an ugly hack to force the text document proxy to update. Have a look at the demo app to see how this is done.

This version adds more keyboard actions that don't exist in iOS, but that may serve a functional or semantical purpose in your apps:

• command
• custom(name:)
• escape
• function
• option
• tab

The new custom action is a fallback that you can use if the existing action set is insufficient for your specific app.

I have added a RepeatingGestureRecognizer and an extension that you can use to apply it as well. It has a custom initial delay as well as a custom repeat interval, that will let you tap and hold a button to repeat its action. In the next update, I will apply this to the backspace and arrow buttons.

Thanks to @arampak, the demo app now handles shift state and long press better, to make the overall experience much nicer and close to the native keyboard. The keyboard buttons also registers tap events over the entire button area, not just the button view.

This version solves some major bugs in the repeating gesture recognizer and makes some public parts of the library open.

The standard action handler now handles repeating actions for backspace. You can customize this in the same way as you customize tap and long press handling.

You can test the new repeating logic in the demo app.

This version makes a bunch of previously internal extensions public, since they are now covered by unit tests. It also adds a lot more unit tests to cover most parts of the library.

The default tap animation has been configured to allow user interaction, which reduces the frustrating tap lag that was present in 2.0.0. Sorry about that!

I have added a KeyboardToolbar class, which you can use to create toolbars. It's super simple so far, and only creates a stack view to which you can any views you like.

This version adds a public shadow extension to the main library and shuffles classes and extensions around. It also restructures the example project to make it less cluttered.

I also noticed that the build number bump randomly bumps the build number incorrectly, which causes build errors. I have therefore abandoned this approach and fixed the build number to 1 in all targets.

This version is a major change that attempt to streamline KeyboardKit and remove or refactor parts that make it hard to maintain. It contains several breaking changes, but I hope that you as a result gets a library that is easier to use and more flexible.

Most notably, the view controller inheritance model has been completely removed. Instead, there is only one KeyboardInputViewController. It has a stack view to which you can add any views you like, like the built-in KeyboardButtonRow and KeyboardCollectionView, which means that your custom keyboards is now based on components that you can combine.

Since KeyboardInputViewController therefore can display multiple keyboards at once, it doesn't make any sense to have a single keyboard property. You can still use structs to organize your actions (in fact, I recommend it - have a look at the demo app), but you don't have to.

All action handling has been moved from the view controller to KeyboardActionHandler as well. KeyboardInputViewController use a StandardActionHandler by default, but you can replace this by setting keyboardActionHandler to any KeyboardActionHandler. This is required if you want to use certain actions types, like .image.

New KeyboardActions are added and nextKeyboard has been renamed to switchKeyboard. Action equality logic has also been removed, so instead of isNone, you should use == .none from now on. All help properties like image and imageName are removed as well, since they belong in the app. These are the new action types

• capsLock
• dismissKeyboard
• moveCursorBackward
• moveCursorForward
• shift
• shiftDown
• switchToKeyboard(type)

KeyboardInputViewController will now resize the extension to the size of the stack view, or any other size constraints you may set. The old setHeight(to:) function has therefore been removed.

This version upgrades KeyboardKit to Swift 5. It has many breaking changes:

• KeyboardInputViewController has been renamed to KeyboardViewController
• CollectionKeyboardInputViewController has been renamed to CollectionKeyboardViewController
• GridKeyboardInputViewController has been renamed to GridKeyboardViewController
• KeyboardAlerter has been renamed to KeyboardAlert
• ToastAlerter has been renamed to ToastAlert
• ToastAlert now has two nested view classes View and Label
• ToastAlert's two style function has changed signature
• ToastAlerterAppearance is now an internal ToastAlert.Appearance struct
• Most extensions have been made internal, to avoid exposing them externally

Keyboard has been given an optional ID, which can be used to uniquely identify a keyboard. This makes it easier to manage multiple keyboards in an app.

KeyboardInputViewController implements the KeyboardPresenter protocol, which means that you can set the new optional id property to make a KeyboardSetting exclusive to that presenter. This is nice if your app has multiple keyboards. If you do not specify an id, the settings behave just like before.

A PR by micazeve is merged. It limits the current page index that is persisted for a keyboard, to avoid bugs if the page count has changed since persisting the value.
