RTRootNavigationController

Introduction

More and more apps use custom navigation bar for each different view controller, instead of one common, global navigation bar.

This project just help develops to solve this problem in a tricky way, develops use this navigation controller in a farmilar way just like you used to be, and you can have each view controller a individual navigation bar.

越来越多的应用为每一个 VC 设置单独的导航条，而不是之前那样使用一个全局统一的导航条，因为不同的 VC 有不同的视觉样式，前一个是蓝色的，后一个也许要做成红色、透明，或者干脆没有导航条。

虽然开发者可以在每个 VC 的 - (void)viewWillAppear （想想为什么不是 - (void)viewDidLoad）方法中设置自己所需的样式，但是在同一个导航条上来回修改，稍不注意就会导致样式混乱。另一种实现方式，是隐藏全局那个导航条，每个 VC 自己通过 addSubview:(UIView *)view 的方式自己设置导航条。这种实现是可行的，但是使用不方便了，如：

无法使用 self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem 等来设置导航按钮，而必须自己手动往 navigationBar 上加；
无法使用 self.title 来修改导航标题，而必须自己添加监听；
无法方便地设置 navigationBarHidden；
无法方便地自动调整 contentInsets。

等等。

本项目提供一种透明的方式，让开发者像以前一样使用导航器，同时，每个 push 进来的 VC 有自己独立的导航条。

Usage

As an advise, please set RTRootNavigationController as your rootViewController:

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{

    UIViewController *yourController = ...;
    self.window.rootViewController = [[RTRootNavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:yourController];
    return YES;
}

you can implement following method to customize back bar button item (Recommended):

- (UIBarButtonItem *)rt_customBackItemWithTarget:(id)target
                                          action:(SEL)action
{
    return [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:NSLocalizedString(@"Back", nil)
                                            style:UIBarButtonItemStylePlain
                                           target:target
                                           action:action];
}

or just set useSystemBackBarButtonItem to YES and use the default one.

To run the example project, clone the repo, and run pod install from the Example directory first.

Notice

Your ViewController hierarchy will change to:

RTRootNavigationController
    `- RTContainerViewController
    |       `- RTContainerNavigationController
    |               `- YourViewController1
    `- RTContainerViewController
            `- RTContainerNavigationController
                    `- YourViewController2

So, if you access self.navigationController it returns a container navigation controller, and its viewControllers will always be 1, i.e. self. Instead, your have to use self.rt_navigationController.rt_viewController to get all siblings, as metioned Here and Here.

Requirements
