Swift 3 - Push segue to navigation controller
Solution 1
You need to embed your source view controller in a Navigation Controller or change the segue kind from push to something else. Also, try and cast your destination controller to UINavigationController to prevent a different error after the initial one if fixed:
override func prepare(for segue: UIStoryboardSegue, sender: Any?) {
if let navVC = segue.destinationViewController as? UINavigationController{
if let historyVC = navVC.viewControllers[0] as? HistoryController{
historyVC.detailItem = barcodeInt as AnyObject
}
}
}
See if that works for you.
EDIT: Updated the code above.
Solution 2
You should use show
segue instead of push
segue.
The show segue will push the next viewController into the first viewcontroller's navigationController stack whenever possible, otherwise it will use modalPresent
to show the next viewController.
If you embed your 1st viewController into a UINavigationController, and still keep your Navigation Controller,then you use push
segue, you will get a exception:
*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: 'Pushing a navigation controller is not supported'
Simple change your segue from push
to show
should fit in your case.
Solution 3
Your problem is not in your code, that is fine, it is in your storyboard.
If you would like to push to HistoryVC from ViewController, ViewController should be embedded in a UINavigationController, not HistoryVC (it would be embedded implicitly by it's relationship with ViewController).
The reason for this is that the VC that is pushing must be embedded in a UINavigationController, the vc that is being pushed is inherently embedded because it is added to the UINavigationController's stack.
If the initial ViewController is not within a UINavigationController, there is no stack for the pushed ViewController (HistoryVC) to be pushed onto. Basically, you embed your starting point for your stack (Your first ViewController) in the UINavigationController.
If you want to start a new stack a few VCs down the line you can embed the next view controller in a new UINavigationController, that however you would need to segue to modally.
Solution 4
Try this one:
override func prepare(for segue: UIStoryboardSegue, sender: Any?) {
if let navVC = segue.destinationViewController as? UINavigationController{
if let historyVC = navVC.childViewControllers[0] as? HistoryController{
historyVC.detailItem = barcodeInt as AnyObject
}
}
}

In my storyboard I have a View Controller, I also have a Navigation Controller and another View Controller called HistoryController. The Navigation Controller and the HistroyController have a relationship "root view controller"
I have a button on my 1st View Controller and that button has a push segue to the Navigation Controller.
I have this code in the 1st View Controller to to prepare the segue:
override func prepare(for segue: UIStoryboardSegue, sender: Any?) { if let viewController = segue.destination as? HistoryController { viewController.detailItem = barcodeInt as AnyObject } }
my problem is when I run my code and push the button in my first controller, I get this error:
Could not find a navigation controller for segue 'HistorySegue'. Push segues can only be used when the source controller is managed by an instance of UINavigationController.'
My question is, why am I getting this error and how can I fix it?
I have tried the following
override func prepare(for segue: UIStoryboardSegue, sender: Any?) { if let navVC = segue.destinationViewController as? UINavigationController{ if let historyVC = navVC.viewControllers[0] as? HistoryController{ historyVC.detailItem = barcodeInt as AnyObject } } }
I have also tried
override func prepare(for segue: UIStoryboardSegue, sender: Any?) { if let nav = segue.destination as? UINavigationController { if let vc = nav.visibleViewController as? HistoryController { vc.detailItem = barcodeInt as AnyObject } } }
and I still get the same error:
Could not find a navigation controller for segue 'HistorySegue'. Push segues can only be used when the source controller is managed by an instance of UINavigationController.'
