Usage
Just like any UIViewController, SwiftWebVC can be pushed into a UINavigationController stack:
let webVC = SwiftWebVC(urlString: "http://google.com")
self.navigationController?.pushViewController(webVC, animated: true)It can be presented modally using SwiftModalWebVC:
let webVC = SwiftModalWebVC(urlString: "http://google.com")
self.presentViewController(webVC, animated: true, completion: nil)Note: the above code to present modally uses the default Light-Blue theme. The other modal themes Light-Black and Dark may be chosen using one of the following instead:
let webVC = SwiftModalWebVC(urlString: "http://google.com", theme: "Light-Black")
let webVC = SwiftModalWebVC(urlString: "http://google.com", theme: "Dark")SwiftWebVCActivity
Starting in iOS 6 Apple uses UIActivity to let you show additional sharing methods in share sheets. SwiftWebVC comes with "Open in Safari" and "Open in Chrome" activities. You can easily add your own activity by subclassing SwiftWebVCActivity which takes care of a few things automatically for you. Have a look at the Safari and Chrome activities for implementation examples.Typed
