Question 1

How to observe keyboard notifications with NoticeObserveKit?

Accepted Answer

Define a Notice.Name<UIKeyboardInfo> with decode logic for the userInfo dictionary, then use .notifications(named:) with async/await or .publisher(for:) with Combine. The README includes a full example for UIResponder.keyboardWillShowNotification.

Question 2

NoticeObserveKit vs raw NotificationCenter: which is better for my Swift project?

Accepted Answer

NoticeObserveKit adds type safety and integrates with modern Swift features like Concurrency and Combine, reducing runtime errors. However, raw NotificationCenter is simpler for basic use and avoids third-party dependencies, so choose based on your need for type safety versus minimalism.

Question 3

How to integrate NoticeObserveKit with Swift Concurrency's async/await?

Accepted Answer

Use the .notifications(named:) method within a Task to observe notifications as an async sequence. This requires iOS 15+ or equivalent, as specified in the README's Swift Concurrency section, and handles errors with try-catch.

Question 4

Can I use NoticeObserveKit with Combine in an iOS 13 project?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the Combine Publisher is available from iOS 13.0+, allowing reactive observation with .sink or other operators. Ensure you store cancellables to manage subscriptions, as shown in the example.

Question 5

What's the best way to manage observer lifecycles and avoid memory leaks?

Accepted Answer

Use the ObserverPool to automatically invalidate observers when the pool is released, or manually call .invalidate() on observers. This prevents leaks without requiring weak references, as detailed in the manual observation example.

Question 6

How to define and post a custom notification with a typed payload?

Accepted Answer

Define a Notice.Name<YourType> without decode logic for custom notifications, then post using NotificationCenter.default.nok.post(name: .yourNotification, value: yourValue). The README shows this with NavigationControllerContent.
