I have a TableViewController, TableViewCell and a ViewController. I have a button in the TableViewCell and I want to present ViewController with presentViewController<
I had the same problem and found this code somewhere on stackoverflow, but I can't remember where so it's not my code but i'll present it here.
This is what I use when I want to display a view controller from anywhere, it gives some notice that keyWindow is disabled but it works fine.
extension UIApplication
{
class func topViewController(_ base: UIViewController? = UIApplication.shared.keyWindow?.rootViewController) -> UIViewController?
{
if let nav = base as? UINavigationController
{
let top = topViewController(nav.visibleViewController)
return top
}
if let tab = base as? UITabBarController
{
if let selected = tab.selectedViewController
{
let top = topViewController(selected)
return top
}
}
if let presented = base?.presentedViewController
{
let top = topViewController(presented)
return top
}
return base
}
}
And you can use it anywhere, in my case I used:
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, didSelectItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: Bundle.main)
let vc = storyboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "WeekViewController")
UIApplication.topViewController()?.navigationController?.show(vc, sender: nil)
}
