The new UISplitViewController, Swift and iOS 7

I was playing around with Swift today and stumbled upon the new awesome UISplitViewController in iOS 8. This enhanced version of the controller makes it work for all iOS devices (originally, it only works with iPads). With the introduction of the "phablet", Apple had to improved their SDK to make it easier for devs to build app that works across all screen sizes. That's a good thing, but a little too late IMHO.

Anyway, back to UISplitViewController, the app created by the Xcode template only works with iOS 8 so I tried to dig in and see if it is possible to support iOS 7 with the same code, same storyboard and everything. It looked like it was possible. Many people tried that, particularly this blog post, but the best solution out there still doesn't have it working smoothly in iPad portrait mode where it should show a button to open the master view in a popup... After a few hours looking around, I finally found the solution and have a demo project available at github.com. Check it out now and I hope you find it useful.

Below are some screenshots:

UISplitViewController in iPad/iOS 7: button with text
UISplitViewController in iPad/iOS 8: button with text + arrow

UISplitViewController in iPhone 5s/iOS 7: button with text + arrow
UISplitViewController in iPhone 5s/iOS 8: button with text + arrow
UISplitViewController in iPhone 6+ landscape: fullscreen button

IMAP module for PHP in Mac OS X Mountain Lion

So here it comes again. I have recently upgraded to Mountain Lion and for whatever reason, Apple decided to nuked all my previous PHP (among other things) configurations so I have to setup IMAP in PHP again.

Step 1: Install prerequisites You may choose to download Xcode ( FREE ) from the App Store then go to menu Xcode > menu item Preferences > tab Downloads, select to install Command Line Tools OR you can go to Apple Developer  to get it, you may need to login. Step 2: Compile IMAP Get the IMAP source code from University of Washington website . Please do me a favor and check that website for the latest version, it's good practice.

Flutter: Fixing Firebase header not found with Notification Service Extension

If you follow the FCM tutorial Send an image in the notification payload and encountered this error message: 'FirebaseMessaging/FirebaseMessaging.h' file not found You are on the right place, I'm going to show you how to fix it. My app was working fine but one day it stopped compiling. Apparently Flutter 1.20 changed the way it uses CocoaPod so the service extension no longer has the proper library configured. After some tinkering, I came up with this pod config, it has to be added to ios/Podfile below the main Runner target. target 'FcmImage' do use_frameworks! use_modular_headers! require File.expand_path('../.symlinks/plugins/firebase_core/ios/firebase_sdk_version.rb', __FILE__) firebase_sdk_version = firebase_sdk_version! pod 'Firebase/Messaging', "~> #{firebase_sdk_version}" end FcmImage is my extension name, replace it with yours We can use a hardcoded version for Firebase/Messaging pod but doing so m

A faster Docker for Mac experience

Docker for Mac is freaking slow, this is known issue for years. I'm switching to docker-machine running within Parallels for now... Image from unsplash.com Install the tools I use brew to quickly install these: brew install docker-machine brew install docker-machine-parallels Create the virtual machine The --driver param and vm name is required. The others are all optional, the default values are quite low so I bumped the specs a bit. docker-machine create --driver=parallels \   --parallels-cpu-count=2 \   --parallels-disk-size=100000 \   --parallels-memory=4096 \   parallels Usage Set up the shell environment: eval $(docker-machine env parallels) Then use the cli as normal: docker ls docker-compose up -d To get the vm IP address: docker-machine ip parallels
