Usage

ContainerViewSegueManager

ContainerViewSegueManager is responsible for telling your UIViewController which segue it should perform.

Creating your containerView

After dropping your container into your UIViewController you should name its embedSegue identifier:

you also need to make sure the embed UIViewController custom class is ContainerViewSegueManager

and then in your UIViewController class override prepareForSegue:sender: with references to ContainerViewSegueManager and to your ContainerDataManager subclass, note it's VERY important that you pass your class type and not an object of it!:

-(void)prepareForSegue:(UIStoryboardSegue *)segue sender:(id)sender{
if ([segue.identifier isEqualToString:@"embedSegue"]) {
self.containerView = (ContainerViewSegueManager*)segue.destinationViewController;
self.containerView.containerDataClass = [CVMViewDataManager class];
}
}

Make sure shouldPerformSegueWithIdentifier:sender: returns YES

-(BOOL)shouldPerformSegueWithIdentifier:(NSString *)identifier sender:(id)sender{
return YES;
}

EmptySegue

All segues from your ContainerViewSegueManager to your UIViewController should be of the type EmptySegue and have an identifier:

ContainerDataManager

ContainerDataManager is responsible for deciding which segueIdentifier should be passed to performSegueWithIdentifier:sender: of ContainerViewSegueManager based on your application data and needs.

Subclassing ContainerDataManager

You should create a subclass of ContainerDataManager and override the additionalSetup method:

MyContainerDataManager.h

#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
#import <ContainerDataManager/ContainerDataManager.h>

@interface CVMViewDataManager : ContainerDataManager

@end

Choosing which segueIdentifier will be used

ContainerDataManager additionalSetup method will be overridden by your class implementation. You MUST call [super additionalSetup] and self.currentSegueIdentifier must NOT be nil.

MyContainerDataManager.m

-(void)additionalSetup{
_array = @[@"1",@"2"];

self.currentSegueIdentifier = @"FirstViewController";

if ([_array count] != 0) {
self.currentSegueIdentifier = @"FirstViewController";
self.parent.navigationItem.title = @"FIRST";
}
else {
self.currentSegueIdentifier = @"SecondViewController";
self.parent.navigationItem.title = @"SECOND";
}

[super additionalSetup];
}

Swapping viewController

You can use ContainerViewSegueManager swapFromViewController:toViewController to go from one UIViewController to another UIViewController easily.

UIStoryboard *storyboard = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:@"Main" bundle:nil];
CVMFirstViewController *firstView = [storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"CVMFirstViewController"];
[ContainerViewSegueManager swapFromViewController:self toViewController:firstView];
