A configurable star rating control for OSX and iOS, similar to those found in iTunes and the App Store.
###Installation
The easiest way to install EDStarRating is via CocoaPods. Add this line to your Podfile:
pod 'EDStarRating'and run pod install.
You can also install it manually by copying these two files to your project: EDStarRating.h and EDStarRating.m
In order to use EDStarRating, you can instantiate it programmatically, or create a custom view in Interface Builder and assign it to an ivar of your app. Once you have an instance, you can use the control properties to configure it.
Example:
starRating.starImage = [NSImage imageNamed:@"star.png"];
starRating.starHighlightedImage = [NSImage imageNamed:@"starhighlighted.png"];
starRating.maxRating = 5.0;
starRating.delegate = self;
starRating.horizontalMargin = 12;
starRating.editable=YES;
starRating.displayMode=EDStarRatingDisplayFull;
starRating.rating= 2.5;
If you pass to the control a template UIImage (created using rendering mode (UIImageRenderingModeAlwaysTemplate), EDStarRating will tint that image using the control's tintColor property.
This control should work in ARC and not ARC projects. On OS X 10.6+ and iOS 4.x+. But it's only tested it with ARC enabled in 10.8+ and iOS 6.0+. Let me now if it works fine for you in other environments.
