回答Swift 3.0, Xcode 8

1.确保你设置了集合视图委托

class DashboardViewController: UIViewController {
    @IBOutlet weak var dashboardCollectionView: UICollectionView!

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        dashboardCollectionView.delegate = self
    }
}

2.实现uicollectionviewdelegatflowlayout协议，而不是UICollectionViewDelegate。

extension DashboardViewController: UICollectionViewDelegateFlowLayout {
    fileprivate var sectionInsets: UIEdgeInsets {
        return .zero
    }

    fileprivate var itemsPerRow: CGFloat {
        return 2
    }

    fileprivate var interitemSpace: CGFloat {
        return 5.0
    }

    func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView,
                        layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout,
                        sizeForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGSize {
        let sectionPadding = sectionInsets.left * (itemsPerRow + 1)
        let interitemPadding = max(0.0, itemsPerRow - 1) * interitemSpace
        let availableWidth = collectionView.bounds.width - sectionPadding - interitemPadding
        let widthPerItem = availableWidth / itemsPerRow

        return CGSize(width: widthPerItem, height: widthPerItem)
    }

    func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView,
                        layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout,
                        insetForSectionAt section: Int) -> UIEdgeInsets {
        return sectionInsets
    }

    func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView,
                        layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout,
                        minimumLineSpacingForSectionAt section: Int) -> CGFloat {
        return 0.0
    }

    func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, minimumInteritemSpacingForSectionAt section: Int) -> CGFloat {
        return interitemSpace
    }
}

故事板的方法

在你的故事板中选择CollectionView，然后进入尺寸检查器，设置单元格和行的最小间距为5

Swift 5编程方式

lazy var collectionView: UICollectionView = {
        let layout = UICollectionViewFlowLayout()
        layout.scrollDirection = .horizontal

        //Provide Width and Height According to your need
        let width = UIScreen.main.bounds.width / 4
        let height = UIScreen.main.bounds.height / 10
        layout.itemSize = CGSize(width: width, height: height)

        //For Adjusting the cells spacing
        layout.minimumInteritemSpacing = 5
        layout.minimumLineSpacing = 5

        return UICollectionView(frame: self.view.frame, collectionViewLayout: layout)
    }()

我发现了使用IB配置单元格或行之间的间距的非常简单的方法。

只需从storyboard/Xib文件中选择UICollectionView，然后按下图所示单击大小检查器。

要以编程方式配置空间，请使用以下属性。

1)用于设置行间距。

[self.collectionView setMinimumLineSpacing:5];

2)用于设置项目/单元格之间的间距。

[self.collectionView setMinimumInteritemSpacing:5];

在头文件中定义UICollectionViewDelegateFlowLayout协议。

实现UICollectionViewDelegateFlowLayout协议的如下方法:

- (UIEdgeInsets)collectionView:(UICollectionView *)collectionView layout:(UICollectionViewLayout*)collectionViewLayout insetForSectionAtIndex:(NSInteger)section
{
    return UIEdgeInsetsMake(5, 5, 5, 5);
}

点击这里查看苹果文档的UIEdgeInsetMake方法。

记住，它是最小行间距，而不是最小项间距或单元格间距。因为你的collectionView的滚动方向是水平的。

如果是垂直的，则需要为单元格之间的水平空间设置单元格空间或项间空间，为单元格之间的垂直空间设置行间距。

objective - c版本

- (CGFloat)collectionView:(UICollectionView *)collectionView
                       layout:(UICollectionViewLayout*)collectionViewLayout
    minimumLineSpacingForSectionAtIndex:(NSInteger)section
    {
        return 20;
    }

斯威夫特版本:

func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, minimumLineSpacingForSectionAt section: Int) -> CGFloat {
    return 20
}

以前的版本并没有真正工作的部分> 1。所以我的解决方案在这里找到了https://codentrick.com/create-a-tag-flow-layout-with-uicollectionview/。对于懒惰的人:

override func layoutAttributesForElements(in rect: CGRect) -> [UICollectionViewLayoutAttributes]? {
    let attributesForElementsInRect = super.layoutAttributesForElements(in: rect)
    var newAttributesForElementsInRect = [UICollectionViewLayoutAttributes]()
    // use a value to keep track of left margin
    var leftMargin: CGFloat = 0.0;
    for attributes in attributesForElementsInRect! {
        let refAttributes = attributes 
        // assign value if next row
        if (refAttributes.frame.origin.x == self.sectionInset.left) {
            leftMargin = self.sectionInset.left
        } else {
            // set x position of attributes to current margin
            var newLeftAlignedFrame = refAttributes.frame
            newLeftAlignedFrame.origin.x = leftMargin
            refAttributes.frame = newLeftAlignedFrame
        }
        // calculate new value for current margin
        leftMargin += refAttributes.frame.size.width + 10
        newAttributesForElementsInRect.append(refAttributes)
    }

    return newAttributesForElementsInRect
}
