ClockKit households and templates, there are such a lot of of them. It is just a little bit time consuming if you’re in search of the appropriate one.
The official ClockKit documentation on Apple’s web site is effectively written, nevertheless it lacks a generic overview of all the prevailing issues. I’ve created just a little cheatsheet so that you can simplify the looking out course of for the appropriate complication fashion.
This cheatsheet helps watchOS 5. With a view to get the template title you simply have so as to add up the names within the correct order. Normally left to proper, high 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 accommodates 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!
change complication.household {
case .circularSmall:
template = CLKComplicationTemplateCircularSmallStackText()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateCircularSmallStackImage()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateCircularSmallSimpleText()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateCircularSmallSimpleImage()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateCircularSmallRingText()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateCircularSmallRingImage()
break;
case .extraLarge:

template = CLKComplicationTemplateExtraLargeStackImage()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateExtraLargeSimpleText()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateExtraLargeSimpleImage()

break;

break;
case .utilitarianSmallFlat:

case .utilitarianLarge:

break;
case .graphicCorner:
template = CLKComplicationTemplateGraphicCornerCircularImage()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateGraphicCornerGaugeText()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateGraphicCornerGaugeImage()

template = CLKComplicationTemplateGraphicCornerTextImage()
break;
case .graphicCircular:

template = CLKComplicationTemplateGraphicCircularOpenGaugeRangeText()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateGraphicCircularOpenGaugeSimpleText()
template = CLKComplicationTemplateGraphicCircularClosedGaugeText()

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. ⏰
