ALTextInputBar is designed to solve a few issues that folks usually encounter when building messaging apps.

ALTextInputBar is available on CocoaPods. Add the following to your Podfile:

This is the minimum configuration required to attach an input bar to the keyboard.

class ViewController: UIViewController {
    let textInputBar = ALTextInputBar()
    // The magic sauce
    // This is how we attach the input bar to the keyboard
    override var inputAccessoryView: UIView? {
        get {
            return textInputBar
        }
    }
    // Another ingredient in the magic sauce
    override var canBecomeFirstResponder: Bool {
        return true
    }
}
