Installation

Carthage

Install Carthage if need be.

$ brew install carthage

Add Inkwell in your Cartfile.

github "ninjaprox/Inkwell"

Usage

Firstly, set the Google API key in the app delegate.

func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplicationLaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
    Inkwell.shared.APIKey = "paste your key here"
}

Now you are ready to use Inkwell with only one API to remember.

let font = Font(family: "ABeeZee" variant: .regular)
let fontSize = 27
Inkwell.shared.font(for: font, size: fontSize) { uifont in
    // Do something with the `uifont`.
}
