Getting interactivePopGestureRecognizer dismiss callback/event

Question

Is there a clean solution on getting a callback or event on the view controller being dismissed (popped) by an interactivePopGestureRecognizer?

Swift 4 iOS 7 - 10

func navigationController(_ navigationController: UINavigationController, willShow viewController: UIViewController, animated: Bool) {

    if let coordinator = navigationController.topViewController?.transitionCoordinator {
        coordinator.notifyWhenInteractionEnds({ (context) in
            print("Is cancelled: \(context.isCancelled)")
        })
    }
}

Swift 4 - 5.1 iOS 10+

func navigationController(_ navigationController: UINavigationController, willShow viewController: UIViewController, animated: Bool) {

    if let coordinator = navigationController.topViewController?.transitionCoordinator {
        coordinator.notifyWhenInteractionChanges { (context) in
            print("Is cancelled: \(context.isCancelled)")
        }
    }
}

I know this is old but for anyone else who might be facing similar problems. Here is the approach I used. First I register a UINavigationControllerDelegate to my navigation controller. The delegate needs to implement.

Objective-C

- (void)navigationController:(UINavigationController *)navigationController willShowViewController:(UIViewController *)viewController animated:(BOOL)animated

Swift

func navigationController(navigationController: UINavigationController, willShowViewController viewController: UIViewController, animated: Bool)

So the implementation would look something like this.

Objective-C

- (void)navigationController:(UINavigationController *)navigationController willShowViewController:(UIViewController *)viewController animated:(BOOL)animated
{
        id<UIViewControllerTransitionCoordinator> tc = navigationController.topViewController.transitionCoordinator;
        [tc notifyWhenInteractionEndsUsingBlock:^(id<UIViewControllerTransitionCoordinatorContext> context) {
            NSLog(@"Is cancelled: %i", [context isCancelled]);
    }];
}

Swift

func navigationController(navigationController: UINavigationController, willShowViewController viewController: UIViewController, animated: Bool) {
    if let coordinator = navigationController.topViewController?.transitionCoordinator() {
        coordinator.notifyWhenInteractionEndsUsingBlock({ (context) in
            print("Is cancelled: \(context.isCancelled())")
        })
    }
}

The callback will fire when the user lifts her finger and the (Objec-C)[context isCancelled]; (Swift)context.isCancelled() will return YES/true if the animation was reversed (the view controller was not popped), else NO/false. There is more stuff in the context that can be of use, like both view controllers involved and the percentage of the animation that was completed upon release etc.

- (void)navigationController:(UINavigationController *)navigationController willShowViewController:(UIViewController *)viewController animated:(BOOL)animated {

    void (^popInteractionEndBlock)(id<UIViewControllerTransitionCoordinatorContext>) =
    ^(id<UIViewControllerTransitionCoordinatorContext> context){
        if (context.completionVelocity >= 1.0f) {
            // complete
        }
    };
    if (@available(iOS 10,*)) {
        [self.navigationController.transitionCoordinator notifyWhenInteractionChangesUsingBlock:popInteractionEndBlock];
    } else {
#pragma GCC diagnostic push
#pragma GCC diagnostic ignored "-Wdeprecated-declarations"
        [self.navigationController.transitionCoordinator notifyWhenInteractionEndsUsingBlock:popInteractionEndBlock];
#pragma GCC diagnostic pop
    }
}
