I'm trying to want to present/push a VC embedded in a NavController from AppDelegate. I previously used this code but somehow it's not working anymore:
let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let VC = storyboard.instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier("PendingRequest") as! PendingRequestVC
let navController = UINavigationController.self(rootViewController: VC)
let rootViewController = UIApplication.sharedApplication().keyWindow!.rootViewController
rootViewController!.presentViewController(navController, animated: false, completion: nil)
Other codes open my desired VC but not within a navigation pane. Any guidance would be appreciated.
Calling from AppDelegate after user interacts with push notification.
Edit:
I'm able to present the right VC by using this code:
let mainStoryboard: UIStoryboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
if let viewController = mainStoryboard.instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier("PendingNavController") as? UINavigationController {
if let yourViewController = viewController.topViewController as? PendingRequestVC {
//yourViewController.getRequestdata()
}
UIApplication.sharedApplication().keyWindow!.rootViewController = viewController;
}
But this code won't allow me to go back using the Close button on my NavBar.
My structure is as follow:
TabController -> NavController1 -> VC1 -> NavController1a -> VC1a
I'm trying to get to VC1a and be able to use the Closed button to go back to VC1
Add a UIButton in your presented ViewController's View. Following event will be performed by that button. You can dismiss your Navigation Controller this way
#IBAction func dismissViewController(sender: AnyObject) {
self.navigationController.dismissViewControllerAnimated(false, completion:nil);
}

In my app I am using 'LGSideMenuController' for sidemenu. Now in my app 'loginviewcontroller' then 'otpviewcontroller' and then 'homeviewcontroller' and other 'viewcontroller'. now my side menu open in all viewcontroller after 'homeviewcontroller'. I am able to open side menu from 'homeviewcontroller'. but in other viewcontroller I am not.
I did code for open sidemenu in 'appdelegate.swift' and also in 'homeviewcontroller'.
in my appdelegate.swift my code for open sidemenu.
let storyBoard = UIStoryboard.init(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let rootviewcontroller = storyBoard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "HomeVC") as! HomeVC
let navigation = UINavigationController.init(rootViewController: rootviewcontroller)
let sideMenuVC = storyBoard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "SideMenuVC") as! SideMenuVC
let sideMenuController = LGSideMenuController(rootViewController: navigation,
leftViewController: sideMenuVC,
rightViewController: nil)
sideMenuController.leftViewWidth = 280.0
sideMenuController.leftViewPresentationStyle = .scaleFromBig
self.window?.rootViewController = sideMenuController
self.window?.makeKeyAndVisible()
and in my homeviewcontroller i make code like this
#IBAction func sideMenuAction(_ sender: UIBarButtonItem) {
self.sideMenuController?.showLeftView(animated: true, completionHandler: nil)
}
it works in homeviewcontroller but other viewcontroller not working.
You need to use a Container View and make it the root controller. Then, you'd be able to achieve what you're trying to do
When a user launches the app from a push notification I present one view controller, then push another. My code to present the first VC is as follows
let mainStoryBoard: UIStoryboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let homeNav: UIViewController = mainStoryBoard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "HomeNavController") as! UINavigationController
let homePageTableVC = mainStoryBoard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: String(describing: HomePageTableViewController.self)) as! HomePageTableViewController
homePageTableVC.tipToPresent = tipDay
homeNav.addChildViewController(homePageTableVC)
self.window = UIWindow(frame: UIScreen.main.bounds)
self.window?.rootViewController = homeNav
self.window?.makeKeyAndVisible()
The tipToPresent property is used by the homePageTableVC (in the viewDidLoad method) to then present the second VC, using this code:
if let tipDayToPresent = tipToPresent {
let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let tipVC = storyboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: String(describing: TipViewController.self)) as! TipViewController
tipVC.dayOfTip = tipDayToPresent
tipToPresent = nil
navigationController?.pushViewController(tipVC, animated: true)
}
This works well, but when I press the back button to return to the homePageTableVC, the navigation bar is blank. The title image, menu button, and right bar button that normally show up are not visible.
Any help is appreciated.
Good if solution by #augie works. I would suggest you should not change navigation stack when you handle push notification deep link. It should behave same as it does in normal app launch. By that way you don't need to handle any edge case and no need to set up different window.
Solution: Whenever someone click on push notification dismiss all presented controller and popToRootViewController and then navigate to desired screen.
Can you try changing this
homeNav.addChildViewController(homePageTableVC)
to this
homeNav.setViewControllers([homePageTableVC], animated: false)
I believe the problem is how you are adding your table on the navigation controller. Instead of making it your navigation's root viewcontroller you are adding it as a child vc.
Changing your code like this should work:
let mainStoryBoard: UIStoryboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
// Remove type UIViewController
let homeNav = mainStoryBoard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "HomeNavController") as! UINavigationController
let homePageTableVC = mainStoryBoard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: String(describing: HomePageTableViewController.self)) as! HomePageTableViewController
homePageTableVC.tipToPresent = tipDay
// Set controllers instead of adding child
homeNav.setViewControllers([homePageTableVC], animated: false)
self.window = UIWindow(frame: UIScreen.main.bounds)
self.window?.rootViewController = homeNav
self.window?.makeKeyAndVisible()
I would like to jump from a viewController to the first viewController related to Tab Bar Controller through code.
The tabBarController Scene has storyboard id tabView.
I'm working on this way:
let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let vc: UITabBarController!
storyboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "tabView")
vc=storyboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "tabView") as! UITabBarController
DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + 0.3) {
self.present(vc as! UIViewController, animated: true, completion: nil)
}
But it loads only the first viewController (out of 5) without the tab bar related to. How can I solve it?
Oh, this code looks so wrong.
In your storyboard give and "tabView" ID to the TabBarController, not the ViewController inside it.
Why you are double instantiating ViewController? just do it once and assign it to the vc variable.
Why you've created delay before presenting the VC? It's some sort of workaround of something?
Working code:
let vc = storyboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "tabView") as! UITabBarController
self.present(vc, animated: true)
Use
(1)if you want to navigate from Appdelegate
let appDelegate = UIApplication.sharedApplication.delegate as! AppDelegate
let mainStoryboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let tabBar = mainStoryboard.instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier("TabBarController") as! TabBarController
appDelegate.window?.rootViewController = tabBar
appDelegate.window?.makeKeyAndVisible()
(2)if you want to navigate from viewcontroller which has root of navigation
self.navigationController?.pushViewController(tabBar, animated: true)
I wonder how I can check what view controller that is currently displayed.
When a user recivies a notification and press on it I want to take the user to a certain VC. But only if the user is not already there.
I am using this when I get a notification:
if let tabBarController = self.window!.rootViewController as? CustomTabBarController {
let navInTab:UINavigationController = tabBarController.viewControllers?[0] as! UINavigationController
let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let destinationViewController = storyboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "EventVc") as? EventsViewController
navInTab.pushViewController(destinationViewController!, animated: true)
tabBarController.selectedIndex = 0
}
I dont want to run this code if the user already is in EventVc
Also, can I run the code above if the user already is in tab 0 but in a different VC than EventVc?
And if it is any help my app is built like this:
(root) TabBar
(tab1) -> navigation controller -> vc -> vc...
(tab2) -> navigation controller -> vc -> vc...
(tab3) -> navigation controller -> vc -> vc...
(tab4) -> navigation controller -> vc -> vc...
this function should solve your problem, just send index number as an argument (forexample: 0 for tab1, 1 for tab2 etc.) at it navigates you selectedIndex ViewController.
// Navigation TabIndex TabBar View Controller
fileprivate func goTabIndex(index: Int) {
let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "yourTabbarStoryboardID", bundle: nil)
let tabBarController = storyboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "EventVc") as! UITabBarController
tabBarController.selectedIndex = index
self.window?.makeKeyAndVisible()
DispatchQueue.main.async {
self.window?.rootViewController?.present(tabBarController, animated: false)
}
}
You can find the Presenting ViewController like this;
let presentingVC = self.window?.rootViewController?.presentingViewController
Presented ViewController;
let presentedVC = self.window?.rootViewController?.presentedViewController
I have the following ViewController structure, see image below.
Whenever I want to move from ViewController 1 to any of the other main controllers I use self.tabBarController?.selectedIndex = indexNumber
// for instance, this would take me to ViewController 3
self.tabBarController?.selectedIndex = 2
Based on the picture below, how can I go from ViewController 1 to TargetViewController programmatically when a button is tapped in ViewController 1?
FYI -
In the picture below I'm showing a button in ViewController 3 this is just to show the storyboard structure, the actual button-tap will happen in ViewController 1
EDIT:
Here is how you do it based on Prashant Tukadiya's answer.
ViewController 1
In ViewController 1 add the following in your tap event.
self.tabBarController?.selectedIndex = 2
let nav = (self.tabBarController?.viewControllers?[2] as? UINavigationController)
let vc = TargetViewController.viewController()
nav?.pushViewController(vc, animated: true)
TargetViewController
In your TargetViewController add the following class method.
class func viewController() -> TargetViewController {
let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
return storyboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "targetViewControllerID") as! TargetViewController
}
Add targetViewControllerID in the Storyboard ID field.
I was facing same before a couple of days and finally, I got a solution maybe this will help you.
TabController.shared.tabcontroller.selectedIndex = 1
let navigation = TabController.shared.tabcontroller.selectedViewController?.navigationController
let SavedAddress = self.storyboard?.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "SavedAddressVC") as! SavedAddressVC
navigation?.pushViewController(SavedAddress, animated: true)
I have used the same solution. and this is the working code for me.
You can directly give identifier to the TargetViewController from storyboard and load from storyboard then and push or present it.
like add this method in your TargetViewController
class func viewController () -> TargetViewController {
let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
return storyboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "yourIdentifer") as! TargetViewController
}
and on tap event
let vc = TargetViewController.viewController()
self.navigationController?.pushViewController(vc, animated: true)
EDIT
After reading comments got clear idea about your requirements
On button action from ViewController1, You want to goto TargetViewController but when press back you want back to viewController 3
Select particular index first
self.tabBarController?.selectedIndex = 2
After that you need to grab UINavigationController
let nav = (self.tabBarController?.viewControllers?[2] as? UINavigationController)
then Push ViewController
let vc = TargetViewController.viewController()
nav?.pushViewController(vc, animated: true)
Note: Don't forgot add identifier to storyboard to TargetViewController and also add class func viewController () -> TargetViewController method to TargetViewController
Hope it is helpful
In action function of a button in ViewController 1 , you can use this :
func presentMethod(storyBoardName: String, storyBoardID: String) {
let storyBoard: UIStoryboard = UIStoryboard(name: storyBoardName, bundle: nil)
let newViewController = storyBoard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: storyBoardID)
self.definesPresentationContext = true
self.present(newViewController, animated: true, completion: nil)
}
//usage
presentMethod(storyBoardName: "Main", storyBoardID: "TargetViewController")
