Xamarin Forms Swipe Left/Swipe Right Gestures

by

No need third party libraries.. No need to pay.. Just add these two classes & Implement your swipe listeners

Step 1: Copy paste these two classes

SwipeListener.cs

using System;
using Xamarin.Forms;

namespace SwipeLib
{
public class SwipeListener : PanGestureRecognizer
{
    private ISwipeCallBack mISwipeCallback;
    private double translatedX = 0, translatedY = 0;

    public SwipeListener(View view, ISwipeCallBack iSwipeCallBack)
    {
        mISwipeCallback = iSwipeCallBack;
        var panGesture = new PanGestureRecognizer();
        panGesture.PanUpdated += OnPanUpdated;
        view.GestureRecognizers.Add(panGesture);
    }

    void OnPanUpdated(object sender, PanUpdatedEventArgs e)
    {

        View Content = (View)sender;

        switch (e.StatusType) {

            case GestureStatus.Running:

                try {
                    translatedX = e.TotalX;
                    translatedY = e.TotalY;
                } catch (Exception err) {
                    System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("" + err.Message);
                }
                break;

            case GestureStatus.Completed:

                System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("translatedX : " + translatedX);
                System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("translatedY : " + translatedY);

                if (translatedX < 0 && Math.Abs(translatedX) > Math.Abs(translatedY)) {
                    mISwipeCallback.onLeftSwipe(Content);
                } else if (translatedX > 0 && translatedX > Math.Abs(translatedY)) {
                    mISwipeCallback.onRightSwipe(Content);
                } else if (translatedY < 0 && Math.Abs(translatedY) > Math.Abs(translatedX)) {
                    mISwipeCallback.onTopSwipe(Content);
                } else if (translatedY > 0 && translatedY > Math.Abs(translatedX)) {
                    mISwipeCallback.onBottomSwipe(Content);
                } else {
                    mISwipeCallback.onNothingSwiped(Content);
                }

                break;

        }
    }

}
}

ISwipeCallBack.cs

using System;
using Xamarin.Forms;
namespace SwipeLib
{  
public interface ISwipeCallBack
{

    void onLeftSwipe(View view);
    void onRightSwipe(View view);
    void onTopSwipe(View view);
    void onBottomSwipe(View view);
    void onNothingSwiped(View view);
}
}

Step 2: From your Xamarin forms pass the view & also interface obj. Then you get result

In my case I pass the label 

 SwipeListener swipeListener = new SwipeListener(lbl_swipe, this);

Step 3: Implement the ISwipeCallBack interface 

public partial class SwipeLibPage : ContentPage, ISwipeCallBack
