Typeset makes it easy to create NSAttributedString

@"Hello typeset".typeset
   .match(@"Hello").fontSize(40)
   .match(@"type").purple
   .match(@"set").blue
   .string;

Demo

Usage

Method chaining
- All the method for typeset returns a self object to chaining itself.
```
 @"Hello typeset".typeset
    .match(@"Hello").fontSize(40)
    .match(@"type").purple
    .match(@"set").blue
    .string;
```
call typeset method first and call string at last returns a NSAttributedString.

UILabel and UITextField support

Add typesetBlock to UILabel or UITextField, and you can directly set it's text style with:

 label.typesetBlock = TSBlock(fontSize(40)
                        .match(@"type").purple
                        .match(@"set").blue);
 label.text = @"Hello typeset, hello.";

 // If you type in this text field, it will color all the `1` in text field to red
 textField.typesetBlock = TSBlock(match(@"1").red);

Construct complicated NSMutableAttributedString

TSAttributedString(@"Hello".red, @" ", @"World".blue);

Match part of string

Typeset providing a series of method to match part of your string, you can use these method to select part of your string, and add attribute to it.

 @"Hello".typeset.from(0).to(2).red.string;
 @"Hello".typeset.location(0).length(2).red.string;
 @"Hello".typeset.range(NSMakeRange(0,2)).red.string;
 @"Hello".typeset.match(@"He").red.string;

These lines of code all make @"He" of @"Hello" to red

Match Method	Explain
`from(NSUInteger)` `to(NSUInteger)`
`location(NSUInteger)` `length(NSUInteger)`
`range(NSRange)`
`match(NSString *)`	match the first substring
`matchWithOptions(NSString *, NSStringCompareOptions)`	match the first substring with options
`matchAll(NSString)`	match all the substring
`matchAllWithOptions(NSString *, NSStringCompareOptions)`	match all the substring with options
`all`	select all the string

Match with pattern

Match Method	Pattern
`matchAllWithPattern(NSString *pattern)`
`matchAllWithPatternAndOptions(NSString *pattern, NSRegularExpressionOptions options)`
`matchNumbers`	\d+
`matchLetters`	[a-zA-Z]+
`matchLanguage(NSString *language)`	\p{script=%@}
`matchChinese`	\p{script=@"Han"}

Convinient method
- If you don't want to change some part of the string, and only want to change the color or the font, you call call these methods directly without calling typeset first
```
 @"Hello".red
 @"Hello".fontSize(20).red
```
