Answer 1

try this

var index = 0
var inForwardDirection = true
var timer: Timer?

@objc func scrollToNextCell() {

    //scroll to next cell
    let items = collectionViewTable.numberOfItems(inSection: 0)
    if (items - 1) == index {
        collectionViewTable.scrollToItem(at: IndexPath(row: index, section: 0), at: UICollectionViewScrollPosition.right, animated: true)
    } else if index == 0 {
        collectionViewTable.scrollToItem(at: IndexPath(row: index, section: 0), at: UICollectionViewScrollPosition.left, animated: true)
    } else {
        collectionViewTable.scrollToItem(at: IndexPath(row: index, section: 0), at: UICollectionViewScrollPosition.centeredHorizontally, animated: true)
    }

    if inForwardDirection {
        if index == (items - 1) {
            index -= 1
            inForwardDirection = false
        } else {
            index += 1
        }
    } else {
        if index == 0 {
            index += 1
            inForwardDirection = true
        } else {
            index -= 1
        }
    }

}

/**
 call this method when collection view loaded
 */
func startTimer() {
    if timer == nil {
        timer = Timer.scheduledTimer(timeInterval: 5.0, target: self, selector: #selector(scrollToNextCell), userInfo: nil, repeats: true);
    }
}

I suggest using the collection view method scrollToItem(at:at:animated:) rather than scrollRectToVisible. It saves you from having to do calculations to figure out what rectangle to expose. You can just specify an indexPath to which you want to scroll.

swift 4:

func scrollToNextCell(){

    //get cell size
    let cellSize = view.frame.size

    //get current content Offset of the Collection view
    let contentOffset = collectionView.contentOffset

    if collectionView.contentSize.width <= collectionView.contentOffset.x + cellSize.width
    {
        let r = CGRect(x: 0, y: contentOffset.y, width: cellSize.width, height: cellSize.height)
        collectionView.scrollRectToVisible(r, animated: true)

    } else {
        let r = CGRect(x: contentOffset.x + cellSize.width, y: contentOffset.y, width: cellSize.width, height: cellSize.height)
        collectionView.scrollRectToVisible(r, animated: true);
    }

}

Below is code you can try :

    /**
     Scroll to Next Cell
     */
    func scrollToNextCell(){

        //get Collection View Instance
        let collectionView:UICollectionView;

        //get cell size
        let cellSize = CGSizeMake(self.view.frame.width, self.view.frame.height);

        //get current content Offset of the Collection view
        let contentOffset = collectionView.contentOffset;

        //scroll to next cell
        collectionView.scrollRectToVisible(CGRectMake(contentOffset.x + cellSize.width, contentOffset.y, cellSize.width, cellSize.height), animated: true);


    }

    /**
     Invokes Timer to start Automatic Animation with repeat enabled
     */
    func startTimer() {

        let timer = NSTimer.scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval(1.0, target: self, selector: Selector("scrollToNextCell"), userInfo: nil, repeats: true);


    }

For Swift4

override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()

    startTimer()
}



func startTimer() {

    let timer =  Timer.scheduledTimer(timeInterval: 1.0, target: self, selector: #selector(self.scrollAutomatically), userInfo: nil, repeats: true)
}


@objc func scrollAutomatically(_ timer1: Timer) {

    if let coll  = topMenuCollection {
        for cell in coll.visibleCells {
            let indexPath: IndexPath? = coll.indexPath(for: cell)
            if ((indexPath?.row)! < banner.count - 1){
                let indexPath1: IndexPath?
                indexPath1 = IndexPath.init(row: (indexPath?.row)! + 1, section: (indexPath?.section)!)

                coll.scrollToItem(at: indexPath1!, at: .right, animated: true)
            }
            else{
                let indexPath1: IndexPath?
                indexPath1 = IndexPath.init(row: 0, section: (indexPath?.section)!)
                coll.scrollToItem(at: indexPath1!, at: .left, animated: true)
            }

        }
    }
}

topMenuCollection :- your collection view

banner.Count:- a number of cells containing a collection view
