UINavigationController
UINavigationController
当界面交互是:列表-->明细-->更具体的明细,这种情况就需要用UINavigationController
UINavigationController维护a stack of those screens,每一个screen都是UIViewController的view,stack是一个view controller数组。
当创建UINavigationController实例时,为其指定一个UIViewController,这个view controller就是navigation controller's root view controller,其总在stack的最下面。
【UINavigationController】和UITabBarController一样,UINavigationController也有一个viewControllers数组,root view controller是这个数组的第一个对象,当更多的view controller push到stack时,他们被添加到这个数组中,数组的最后一个对象总是在stack的顶部,UINavigationController's topViewController属性指向栈顶的view controller。
UINavigationController是UIViewController的子类,所以他也有一个view属性,其view有两个subview:UINavigationBar和topViewController
将navigation controller设置为窗口的rootViewController
#import "BKAppDelegate.h"
#import "BKItemsViewController.h"@implementation BKAppDelegate- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{
self.window = [[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds]];
// Override point for customization after application launch.BKItemsViewController *itemsViewController = [[BKItemsViewController alloc] init];
// Create an instance of UINavigationController
UINavigationController *navController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:itemsViewController];
self.window.rootViewController = navController;
self.window.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
return YES;
}@end
创建BKDetailViewController 创建BKDetailViewController类,继承UIViewController类,同时创建XIB文件。
打开assistant editor
在project navigator,Option-click BKDetailViewController.m文件,打开assistant editor
simulated metrics
选择root view,然后打开attributes inspector,在Simulated Metrics section为top bar选择Translucent Navigation Bar,可以模拟navigation bar的显示
将XIB中的视图outlet到 view controller
Control-drag UITextField到view controller的class extension中。
将view controller放入navigation controller's stack navigation controller's stack中的view controller,都可以通过navigationController方法来获得navigation controller.
root view controller创建下一个view controller,并把他放入到navigation controller stack中,然这个view controller创建下一个需要入栈的view controller,以此类推。
// 选中一行
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath{
BKDetailViewController *detailViewController = [[BKDetailViewController alloc] init];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:detailViewController animated:YES];
}
在view controllers之间传递数据
Having all of the data in the root view controller and passing subsets of that data to the next UIViewController is a clean and efficient way of performing this task.为了让BKDetailViewController显示BKItem的各属性值,需要将BKItem传递给detail view controller.
在BKDetailViewController头文件中声明BKItem属性:
#import @class BKItem;
@interface BKDetailViewController : UIViewController@property (nonatomic,strong) BKItem *item;
@end
当BKDetailViewController‘s view显示到屏幕上之前,将BKItem的值设置到其view上,所以在viewWillAppear:中设置
#import "BKDetailViewController.h"
#import "BKItem.h"@interface BKDetailViewController ()
@property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UITextField *nameField;
@property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UITextField *serialField;
@property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UITextField *valueField;
@property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UILabel *dateLabel;
@end@implementation BKDetailViewController- (void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated{
[super viewWillAppear:animated];
BKItem *item = self.item;
self.nameField.text = item.itemName;
self.serialField.text = item.serialNumber;
self.valueField.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%d", item.valueInDollars];
static NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = nil;
if(!dateFormatter){
dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
dateFormatter.dateStyle = NSDateFormatterMediumStyle;
dateFormatter.timeStyle = NSDateFormatterNoStyle;
}
self.dateLabel.text = [dateFormatter stringFromDate:item.dateCreated];
}@end
更新BKItemsViewController.m,为BKDetailViewController传值:
// 选中一行
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath{
BKDetailViewController *detailViewController = [[BKDetailViewController alloc] init];
NSArray *items = [[BKItemStore sharedStore] allItems];
BKItem *selectedItem = items[indexPath.row];
detailViewController.item = selectedItem;
[self.navigationController pushViewController:detailViewController animated:YES];
}
Appearing and disappearing views 当navigation controller切换视图时,会分别发送viewWillDisappear:和viewWillAppear:到将消失和将显示的view controller
When the message endEditing: is sent to a view, if it or any of its subviews is currently the first responder, it will resign its first responder status, and the keyboard will be dismissed.当BKDetailViewController的视图将要消失时,更新BKItem:
// 在视图要消失前,更新BKItem
- (void)viewWillDisappear:(BOOL)animated{[super viewWillDisappear:animated];
[self.view endEditing:YES];
BKItem *item = self.item;
item.itemName = self.nameField.text;
item.serialNumber = self.serialField.text;
item.valueInDollars = [self.valueField.text intValue];
}
在BKItemsViewController的视图将要显示时,刷新table view:
- (void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated{
[super viewWillAppear:animated];
[self.tableView reloadData];
}
UINavigationBar 每一个UIViewController有一个navigationItem属性,其类型是UINavigationItem,不像UINavigationBar,UINavigationItem不是UIView的子类,所以他不能出来显示在屏幕上。
当一个view controller在navigation controller的栈顶时,UINavigationBar用这个view controller的navigationItem的值来配置自己。
简单navigation item
默认,navigation item是空,最简单的navigation item,可以只配置他的title属性。
当一个view controller在navigation controller的栈顶时,并且其navigationItem有一个有效的title属性,navigation bar就会显示这个title。
修改BKItemsViewController.m,在初始化时设置navigationItem's title:
- (instancetype)init{
self = [super initWithStyle:UITableViewStylePlain];
if(self){
// 设置其本身的navigationItem
UINavigationItem *navItem = self.navigationItem;
navItem.title = @"Homepwner";
}return self;
}
当为BKDetailViewController设置BKItem时(set方法),设置其navigationItem title为BKItem's name。
- (void)setItem:(BKItem *)item{
_item = item;
self.navigationItem.title = _item.itemName;
}
复杂navigation item
navigation item不光可以只定义title属性,还可以很复杂。如下图所示,每个UINavigationItem有三个可自定义区:leftBarButtonItem,rightBarButtonItem,titleView。
前两个是UIBarButtonItem实例,这个类型的实例只能用来配置UINavigationBar或UIToolbar中的button的显示内容。
和UINavigationItem一样,UIBarButtonItem也不是UIView的子类,所以不能显示在屏幕上。
第三个titleView,可以是一个基本的title字符串,也可以是任意的UIView子类,只能任选一种。
下面将BKItemsViewController的headerView(自定义的view)替换成UINavigationBar。
navigation bar 的button,和UIControl 的target-action机制一样,当被点击,发送action消息到target。
在XIB中设置target-action pair,Control-drag button组件到target,并选择IBAction list中的一个。
也可以通过代码的方式,创建target-action pair,传递target和action到button.
在BKItemsViewController.m文件,创建UIBarButtonItem实例,并为其传递target和action。
- (instancetype)init{
self = [super initWithStyle:UITableViewStylePlain];
if(self){
// 设置其本身的navigationItem
UINavigationItem *navItem = self.navigationItem;
navItem.title = @"Homepwner";
// 创建一个bar button item,并设置target action
UIBarButtonItem *bbi = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemAdd target:self action:@selector(addNewItem:)];
// 将bar button item设置给navigation item
navItem.rightBarButtonItem = bbi;
navItem.leftBarButtonItem = self.editButtonItem;
}return self;
}
action传递的是一个SEL类型,这个类型指定一个方法(就是selector),@selector()不关心返回类型,参数类型或参数名称。
UIViewController有一个editButtonItem属性,当调用这个属性,view controller创建一个title为Edit的UIBarButtonItem,并且已经设置好了target-action,当被点击时,发送setEditing:animated:消息到UIViewController。
现在可以把自定义的headerView删除了。
