Any plans on supporting custom UIGestureRecognizer subclasses? about rxgesture HOT 4 CLOSED

Hum it would be possible, but as this operator can take any gesture recognizer, I don't feel comfortable by overriding it's delegate. I could check if there's already a delegate and set it to RxGestureRecognizerDelegate only if there isn't already one, but I don't really like this.
What you could do is to use it by yourself:

let gesture = SpecializedGestureRecognizer()
let delegate = RxGestureRecognizerDelegate()
gesture.delegate= delegate
view.rx.gesture(gesture).when(.recognized).subscribe(onNext: { g in
...
})

But you'll have to maintain a strong reference to it, otherwise it will be dealloc immediately because gesture.delegate is a weak reference.

@JohnEstropia I don't understand...
RxGesture supports all gestures defined by UIKit.
Also, the API is extensible so if in your projects, you want to support your own gesture recognizer, it's possible.

You can do:

let gesture = SpecializedGestureRecognizer()
view.rx.gesture(gesture).when(.recognized).subscribe(onNext: { g in
...
})

You can also implement the same shortcuts as ones provided by RxGesture with native recognizer. You can inspire yourself with this implementation: https://github.com/RxSwiftCommunity/RxGesture/blob/master/Pod/Classes/iOS/UITapGestureRecognizer%2BRxGesture.swift

Sorry if I wasn't clear. First, thanks for mentioning the gesture(...) factory method that accepts a UIGestureRecognizer instance directly, I am now using that for my implementation.

I guess when I first asked the question I was looking for a factory method that lets me configure the RxGestureRecognizerDelegate without having to create my own concrete GestureRecognizerFactory. Now I found the gesture(_:) method, my suggestion now is wouldn't it be convenient to have an overload method gesture(_:configuration:) where we can configure the RxGestureRecognizerDelegate policies?

@JohnEstropia Hey,

I think this should be doable now with RxGesture 2.x:

class MyCustomGestureRecognizer : UIGestureRecognizer {
    // ...
}

public typealias CustomGestureConfiguration = Configuration<MyCustomGestureRecognizer>
public typealias CustomGestureControlEvent = ControlEvent<MyCustomGestureRecognizer>
public typealias CustomGestureObservable = Observable<MyCustomGestureRecognizer>

extension Factory where Gesture == GestureRecognizer {
    public static func custom(configuration: CustomGestureConfiguration? = nil) -> AnyFactory {
        return Factory(configuration: configuration).abstracted()
    }
}

public extension Reactive where Base: View {
    public func customGesture(configuration: CustomGestureConfiguration? = nil) -> TapControlEvent {
        return gesture(Factory(configuration: configuration))
    }
}
