perform a root viewcontroller segue programmatically on a tableviewcell in swift - swift

Question

The code below creates a tableviewcell and places a object in it. The code to place data inside the tableviewcell is not present. All I want to do is when the user clicks on the tableviewcell it to be transfers to a basic view controller class. No need to show how to go back.
var itemName : [NSManagedObject] = []
var theField = UITableView()
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
theField.register(UITableViewCell.self, forCellReuseIdentifier: "MyCell")
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let title = itemName[indexPath.row]
let cell = theField.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "MyCell", for : indexPath)
cell.selectionStyle = .default
let attr1 = title.value(forKey: "name") as? String
let text = [attr1].flatMap { $0 }.reduce("", +)
cell.textLabel?.text = "\(text)"
cell.textLabel?.textAlignment = .center
cell.layoutMargins = UIEdgeInsets.zero
cell.preservesSuperviewLayoutMargins = false
cell.separatorInset = UIEdgeInsets.zero
cell.layoutMargins = UIEdgeInsets.zero
return cell
}
#objc func moveRight() {
//pass tableview cell
let vce = fullScreen()
vce.text = UITableViewCell
vce.modalPresentationStyle = .overCurrentContext // actually .fullScreen would be better
vce.present(vce, animated: true)}

Answer 1

Assume you have an array titles
cell.textLabel?.text = titles[indexPath.row]
and then take action in this method:
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, didSelectRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
tableView.deselectRow(at: indexPath, animated: true)
moveRight(titles[indexPath.row])
}
func moveRight(_ title:String) {
//pass tableview cell
let vc = fullScreen()
vc.text = title
self.navigationController!.pushViewController(vc, animated: true)
}

Answer 2

You need to implement the UITableViewDelegate protocol. So:
extension ViewController: UITableViewDelegate {
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, didSelectRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) { .. }
}
