Add Drawer to a None-Main StoryBoard

[Mahan3340]

Hi I'm launching a Storyboard that has a NavigationController inherited from your NavigationController like the code below , how can I initialize left or right controller ?
I've created a RightDrawerVC.swift controller with xib and want to show is as right menu
(I'm so new to ios developing & I've read your examples but there you have initialized them in delegate
which i'm launching something else there

`
let storyBoard:UIStoryboard = UIStoryboard(name: "someStoryBoard", bundle: nil)
let viewController2 = storyBoard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "someStoryBoard")

    self.present(viewController2, animated: true, completion: nil)

`

I mean it seams I can just use this library if the drawer is gonna be added to very first Controller , if not how can I do it then ?

I finally Found out the solution after hours and I'll paste the code bellow and please add it to your documentation so other newbies like me wont get in trouble :)

1. add a NavigationController to your storyboard ( not always the starting storyboard)

2. create a Class for the NavigationController that extends NavigationDrawerController (Material)

3. create the left/right Controller's class

4. create left/right Controller's variable like let drawerVC = MainDrawerVC(nibName: "MainDrawerVC", bundle: nil)

5. let storyBoard:UIStoryboard = UIStoryboard(name: "MainStoryboard", bundle: nil)
   let mainController = storyBoard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "MainStoryboard")

6. let mainNavigationController = MainNavigationDrawer(rootViewController:mainController,rightViewController:drawerVC)
   (Launch From a Controller that doesn't have a NavigationController to a Controller that does have a Navigation Controller)

7. self.present(mainNavigationController, animated: true, completion: nil)

it maybe obvious but took me hours to find it out , you may close this issue as its solved 👍
