SwiftUI dismiss modal

Question

Since SwiftUI is declarative there is no dismiss methode. How can is add a dismiss/close button to the DetailView?

Answer 1

Since PresentationButton is easy to use but hiding the state wich is undermining the predictive character of SwiftUI I have implemented it with an accessible Binding.

public struct BindedPresentationButton: View where Label: View, Destination: View {
    /// The state of the modal presentation, either `visibile` or `off`.
    private var showModal: Binding

    /// A `View` to use as the label of the button.
    public var label: Label

    /// A `View` to present.
    public var destination: Destination

    /// A closure to be invoked when the button is tapped.
    public var onTrigger: (() -> Void)?

    public init(
        showModal: Binding,
        label: Label,
        destination: Destination,
        onTrigger: (() -> Void)? = nil
    ) {
        self.showModal = showModal
        self.label = label
        self.destination = destination
        self.onTrigger = onTrigger
    }

    public var body: some View {
        Button(action: toggleModal) {
            label
        }
        .presentation(
            !showModal.value ? nil :
                Modal(
                    destination, onDismiss: {
                        self.toggleModal()
                    }
                )
        )
    }

    private func toggleModal() {
        showModal.value.toggle()
        onTrigger?()
    }
}

This is how it is used:

struct DetailView: View {
    @Binding var showModal: Bool

    var body: some View {
        Group {
            Text("Detail")
            Button(action: {
                self.showModal = false
            }) {
                Text("Dismiss")
            }
        }
    }
}

struct ContentView: View {
    @State var showModal = false

    var body: some View {
        BindedPresentationButton(
            showModal: $showModal,
            label: Text("Show"),
            destination: DetailView(showModal: $showModal)
        ) {
            print("dismissed")
        }
    }
}
