Push navigation from xib Files to storyboard viewcontroller in swift3 [duplicate] - swift

I have a view in my xib file which contain buttons. i want to move to a ViewController when i will press the button (#IBAction). I have used below code
let storyBoard : UIStoryboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle:nil)
let nextViewController = storyBoard.instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier("About") as! AboutViewController
self.presentViewController(nextViewController, animated: true, completion: nil)
I am getting the error "Value of type 'SlideMenuView' has no member 'presentViewController'.
because my class is a UIView type :
class SlideMenuView: UIView {
}
so how can I navigate to other view controller.

That is beacuase the class you are trying to present from is a UIView and not a UIViewController. It has no Present method.
I'm guessing your view (SlideMenuView) is embedded inside a viewcontroller. what you need to do is implement a delegate, and inform your containing viewController to present next Viewcontroller.
code below:
#protocol SlideMenuViewDelegate: class {
func slideMenuViewAboutButtonClicked(menuView: SlideMenuView)
class SlideMenuView: UIView {
weak var delegate: SlideMenuViewDelegate?
#IBAction func aboutButtonClicked(sender: AnyObject) {
self.delegate?.slideMenuViewAboutButtonClicked(self)
}
now, in your viewController, implement this delegate method:
func slideMenuViewAboutButtonClicked(menuView: SlideMenuView) {
let storyBoard : UIStoryboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle:nil)
let nextViewController = storyBoard.instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier("About") as! AboutViewController
self.presentViewController(nextViewController, animated: true, completion: nil)
}
Also, dont forget to assign the sliderMenuView object the viewcontroller as a delegate.
something like:
self.sliderMenuView.delegate = self // (self == the containing viewController

I did it in a different way. In class file
class SlideMenuView: UIView {
var navigationController: UINavigationController? // Declare a navigation controller variable
// And create a method which take a navigation controller
func prepareScreen(navController: UINavigationController)-> UIView {
navigationController = navController
let nibView = NSBundle.mainBundle().loadNibNamed("SlideMenuView", owner: self, options: nil)[0] as! UIView
self.addSubview(nibView)
return nibView
}
// In Button action
#IBAction func btnAction(sender: UIButton) {
var storyBoard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let nextViewController = storyBoard!.instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier("NextViewController") as! UIViewController
navigationController?.pushViewController(nextViewController, animated: true)
}
}
// For calling from UIViewController
slideBarMenuIstance.prepareScreen(self.navigationController!)

error instantiating a viewcontrolelr modally via code

why with this code, outlets in second view controller are unwrapped as the were nil crashing the app? they even are not appearing. issue happens if I try to access the outlets, but not if I change the view's background.
in view controller 1 button:
let vc = SecondViewController.self.createAcertainCustomAppearenceOfVC()
vc.modalPresentationStyle = .overCurrentContext
vc.modalTransitionStyle = .crossDissolve
present(vc, animated: true, completion: nil)
in second view controller
final class func createAcertainCustomAppearenceOfVC() -> SecondViewController {
let VC = SecondViewController()
VC.view.backgroundColor = .systemRed
// VC.tappedSecondOut.setTitle("push", for: .normal)
VC.tappedSecondOut.backgroundColor = .black
return VC
}
You're trying to instantiate a view controller that has outlets in a storyboard, you need to instantiate the controller from both the storyboard name and the view controller's identifier that is set in Interface Builder.
final class func createAcertainCustomAppearenceOfVC() -> SecondViewController? {
let storyboard = UIStoryboard.init(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
return storyboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "secondViewControllerIdentifier") as? SecondViewController
}

Cocoa swift load ViewController and and storyboard view from AppDelegate

I have created a SideBar() class which creates a NSView with various buttons.
I instantiate my sideBar() in my AppDelegate by doing
func applicationDidFinishLaunching(_ notification: Notification) {
sideBarView.setupSideBarView()
sideBarView.menuButton.action = #selector(self.NewMenuButton(_:))
}
#objc func NewMenuButton(_ sender: NSButton) {
}
In my Initial ViewController I then present my sideBar in the following way:
view.addSubview(sideBarView.getView())
With the press of menuButton I would like the function in the App Delegate to load and present a new storyboard view with its ViewController.
Can this be done?
Thanks.
I solved the issue giving my second ViewController a storyboard id.
Then, through the AppDelegate function:
let storyboard = NSStoryboard(name: NSStoryboard.Name("Main"), bundle: Bundle.main)
let mainPageController = storyboard.instantiateController(withIdentifier: "test") as! SecondViewController
NSApplication.shared.mainWindow?.contentViewController = mainPageController

Swift NavigationController push method request doesn't work from PopUp view

The new PopUp ViewController is presented .overCurrentContext
There are 2 buttons with navigation for 2 other views from PopUp view.
A simple action such as print goes well, but when I try to segue programmatically (from xib file, popUpViewController) nothing happens.
let vc = RegisterEmailViewController.instantiate()
vc.coordinator = self
navigationController.pushViewController(vc, animated: false)
Goes well from any other view.
What could be wrong?
PopUpViewController code:
// Created by ᴀʟᴇxᴀɴᴅʀ ᴢʜᴇʟɪᴇᴢɴɪᴀᴋ on 23.12.2019.
// Copyright © 2019 ᴀʟᴇxᴀɴᴅʀ ᴢʜᴇʟɪᴇᴢɴɪᴀᴋ. All rights reserved.
import UIKit
class ViewController: UIViewController, Storyboarded {
weak var coordinator: MyCoordinator?
#IBAction func dismissPopUp(_ sender: Any) {
dismiss(animated: false, completion: nil)
}
#IBAction func buttonEmail(_ sender: Any) {
let vc = UIStoryboard.init(name: "Main", bundle: Bundle.main).instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "EmailViewController") as? EmailViewController
self.navigationController?.pushViewController(vc!, animated: true)
}
#IBAction func buttonPhone(_ sender: Any) {
let vc = UIStoryboard.init(name: "Main", bundle: Bundle.main).instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "PhoneViewController") as? PhoneViewController
self.navigationController?.pushViewController(vc!, animated: true)
}
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
}
}
There is MyCoordinator which inits all navigations and doesn't let me simply to segue/navigate by my own.
var childCoordinators = [Coordinator]()
var navigationController: UINavigationController
init(navigationController: UINavigationController) {
self.navigationController = navigationController
}
Therefore, a reference to the controller solved the issue. It is possible to navigate aside, until new subViews, separate views are called.
Code that worked in this case:
let vc = RegisterEmailViewController.instantiate()
vc.coordinator = self
navigationController.pushViewController(vc, animated: false)
Conclusion. Simple there are two ways:
To delete all dependencies and other methods which use
UINavigationController
To declare only by new methods for global usage.

How do i load a viewcontroller from a xib file?

I tried to load a viewcontroller from a custom cell using delegates.But i get nil from the set delegate!
Here is a sample if anyone can help!
1. In Cell
protocol hotelFindDelegate{
func modalDidFinished(modalText: String)
}
class hotelFindCell: UITableViewCell {
var delegate:hotelFindDelegate?
#IBAction func findButton(sender: AnyObject) {
self.delegate!.modalDidFinished("HELLO")
print("Damn nothing works")
}
2. In Main View
class MainViewController:hotelFindDelegate {
let modalView = hotelFindCell()
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
self.modalView?.delegate = self
}
func modalDidFinished(modalText: String){
let viewController:UIViewController = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil).instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier("HotelListVC") as UIViewController
self.presentViewController(viewController, animated: false, completion: nil)
self.modalView.delegate = self
print(modalText)
}
To load view controller from XIB do the following steps.
let settingVC : SettingsViewController = SettingsViewController(nibName :"SettingsViewController",bundle : nil)
later on you can push the same view controller object like
self.navigationController?.pushViewController(settingsVC, animated: true)
NSBundle.mainBundle().loadNibNamed("viewController", owner: self, options: nil)

correct initialization navigation controller swift

I have a viewcontroller, i named it as SelectionPopUpViewController. I embed that controller on a UINavigationController.
From SelectionPopUpViewController.swift, I put:
#IBAction func okTapped(sender: AnyObject) {
self.dismissViewControllerAnimated(false, completion: nil)
let homeVc = UIStoryboard(name: "Home", bundle: nil).instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier("Home") as HomeViewController
self.navController = UINavigationController(rootViewController: homeVc)
self.window?.rootViewController = self.navController
//self.navController.pushViewController(homeVc, animated: true)
}
on above I put :
weak var window : UIWindow?
var navController : UINavigationController!
What I want is when user click that okTapped button, it will go to HomeViewController. I try to initialize like that but it did not work. Maybe my initialization wrong.
What is the correct code to made that button work (go to HomeViewController)?
