Activity indicator in SwiftUI

Question

Trying to add a full screen activity indicator in SwiftUI.

I can use .overlay(overlay: ) function in View Protocol.

With this, I c

Custom Indicators

Although Apple supports native Activity Indicator now from the SwiftUI 2.0, You can Simply implement your own animations. These are all supported on SwiftUI 1.0. Also it is working in widgets.

Arcs

struct Arcs: View {
    @Binding var isAnimating: Bool
    let count: UInt
    let width: CGFloat
    let spacing: CGFloat

    var body: some View {
        GeometryReader { geometry in
            ForEach(0.. some View {
        Group { () -> Path in
            var p = Path()
            p.addArc(center: CGPoint(x: geometrySize.width/2, y: geometrySize.height/2),
                     radius: geometrySize.width/2 - width/2 - CGFloat(index) * (width + spacing),
                     startAngle: .degrees(0),
                     endAngle: .degrees(Double(Int.random(in: 120...300))),
                     clockwise: true)
            return p.strokedPath(.init(lineWidth: width))
        }
        .frame(width: geometrySize.width, height: geometrySize.height)
    }
}

Bars

struct Bars: View {
    @Binding var isAnimating: Bool
    let count: UInt
    let spacing: CGFloat
    let cornerRadius: CGFloat
    let scaleRange: ClosedRange
    let opacityRange: ClosedRange

    var body: some View {
        GeometryReader { geometry in
            ForEach(0.. CGFloat {
        (geometry.width/CGFloat(count)) - (spacing-2)
    }

    private func item(forIndex index: Int, in geometrySize: CGSize) -> some View {
        RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: cornerRadius,  style: .continuous)
            .frame(width: size(count: count, geometry: geometrySize), height: geometrySize.height)
            .scaleEffect(x: 1, y: scale, anchor: .center)
            .opacity(opacity)
            .animation(
                Animation
                    .default
                    .repeatCount(isAnimating ? .max : 1, autoreverses: true)
                    .delay(Double(index) / Double(count) / 2)
            )
            .offset(x: CGFloat(index) * (size(count: count, geometry: geometrySize) + spacing))
    }
}

Blinkers

struct Blinking: View {
    @Binding var isAnimating: Bool
    let count: UInt
    let size: CGFloat

    var body: some View {
        GeometryReader { geometry in
            ForEach(0.. some View {
        let angle = 2 * CGFloat.pi / CGFloat(count) * CGFloat(index)
        let x = (geometrySize.width/2 - size/2) * cos(angle)
        let y = (geometrySize.height/2 - size/2) * sin(angle)
        return Circle()
            .frame(width: size, height: size)
            .scaleEffect(isAnimating ? 0.5 : 1)
            .opacity(isAnimating ? 0.25 : 1)
            .animation(
                Animation
                    .default
                    .repeatCount(isAnimating ? .max : 1, autoreverses: true)
                    .delay(Double(index) / Double(count) / 2)
            )
            .offset(x: x, y: y)
    }
}

For the sake of preventing walls of code, you can find more elegant indicators in this repo hosted on the git.

_{Note that all these animations have a Binding that MUST toggle to be run.}
