CepheiPrefs is a framework that provides preference related convenience methods.

How to use this framework

Headers are available from Cephei’s Github project and the framework can be found at /Library/Frameworks/Cephei.framework on a device where Cephei is installed. Theos and Dragon both include the headers so you don’t have to worry about installing them!

Include directive

#import <CepheiPrefs/CepheiPrefs.h>

Makefile

Add to your preference bundle Makefile: CepheiPrefs to the XXX_EXTRA_FRAMEWORKS variable.

Dragon

Add to your DragonMake file: CepheiPrefs to the frameworks in the preferences module.

Packaging

Add to your package’s control file: ws.hbang.common to the Depends field.

Getting preferences to work with Cephei

In order to use CepheiPrefs features you need to subclass HBRootListController for the root controller or HBListController

@interface XXXRootPreference : HBRootListController
@end

@implementation XXXRootPreference
    // Any normal preference actions here
@end

Changing a pane’s appearance

The HBAppearanceSettings class provides methods to change the appearance of a preference pane from colors to changing status bar style

@implementation XXXRootPreference
- (instancetype)init {
    self = [super init];

    if (self) {
        HBAppearanceSettings *appearanceSettings = [[HBAppearanceSettings alloc] init];
        appearanceSettings.tintColor = [UIColor blackColor];
        // Applying
        self.hb_appearanceSettings = appearanceSettings;
    }

    return self;
}
@end
