ClockKit households and templates, there are such a lot of of them. It is a little bit bit time consuming in case you are on the lookout for the appropriate one.
The official ClockKit documentation on Apple’s website is properly written, nevertheless it lacks a generic overview of all the present issues. I’ve created a little bit cheatsheet so that you can simplify the looking out course of for the appropriate complication type.
This cheatsheet helps watchOS 5. So as to get the template identify you simply have so as to add up the names within the correct order. Normally left to proper, prime to backside. Don’t fear you’ll get it. 😅
Swift pattern code is beneath the cheatsheet, please scroll! 👇
Be at liberty to proper click on and obtain the cheatsheet picture.
ClockKit code pattern in Swift
This little snippet incorporates all of the ClockKit complication households and templates. 😎
import ClockKit
class ComplicationDataSource: NSObject, CLKComplicationDataSource {
func getSupportedTimeTravelDirections(
for complication: CLKComplication,
withHandler handler: @escaping (CLKComplicationTimeTravelDirections
) -> Void) {
handler([.forward, .backward])
}
func getCurrentTimelineEntry(
for complication: CLKComplication,
withHandler handler: @escaping (CLKComplicationTimelineEntry?) -> Void
) {
let date = Date()
var template: CLKComplicationTemplate!
swap complication.household {
case .circularSmall:
template = CLKComplicationTemplateCircularSmallStackText()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateCircularSmallStackImage()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateCircularSmallSimpleText()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateCircularSmallSimpleImage()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateCircularSmallRingText()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateCircularSmallRingImage()
break;
case .extraLarge:
template = CLKComplicationTemplateExtraLargeStackText()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateExtraLargeStackImage()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateExtraLargeSimpleText()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateExtraLargeSimpleImage()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateExtraLargeRingText()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateExtraLargeRingImage()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateExtraLargeColumnsText()
break;
case .modularSmall:

break;
case .modularLarge:

break;
case .utilitarianSmallFlat:
template = CLKComplicationTemplateUtilitarianSmallFlat()
case .utilitarianLarge:
template = CLKComplicationTemplateUtilitarianLargeFlat()
break;
case .graphicCorner:
template = CLKComplicationTemplateGraphicCornerCircularImage()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateGraphicCornerGaugeText()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateGraphicCornerGaugeImage()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateGraphicCornerStackText()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateGraphicCornerTextImage()
break;
case .graphicCircular:
template = CLKComplicationTemplateGraphicCircularImage()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateGraphicCircularOpenGaugeImage()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateGraphicCircularOpenGaugeRangeText()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateGraphicCircularOpenGaugeSimpleText()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateGraphicCircularClosedGaugeText()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateGraphicCircularClosedGaugeImage()
break;
case .graphicBezel:
template = CLKComplicationTemplateGraphicBezelCircularText()
break;
case .graphicRectangular:
template = CLKComplicationTemplateGraphicRectangularLargeImage()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateGraphicRectangularStandardBody()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateGraphicRectangularTextGauge()
break;
}
let entry = CLKComplicationTimelineEntry(
date: date,
complicationTemplate: template
)
handler(entry)
}
}
That’s it for now. Time is over. ⏰
