Basic Use

The badge view works much like UILabel. Once you've assigned text and configured the attributes you should call sizeToFit to have the badge determine its ideal size.

NIBadgeView* badgeView = [[NIBadgeView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectZero];
badgeView.text = @"7";
[badgeView sizeToFit];
[self.view addSubview:badgeView];
