在iOS开发过程中,通常我们会使用UINavigationController,UITabbarController等苹果提供的视图控制器来切换我们的视图。在iOS5之前,如果要自定义容器视图控制器很麻烦,比如你要考虑到子视图的生命周期,当设备旋转时的情况等,好在iOS5中苹果提供了添加视图控制器(addChildViewController)等管理视图控制器的API,这样我们就能使用此API来自定义自己的视图控制器了,这篇文章只要介绍如何使用此API实现UITabbarController的基本功能。
开始
使用过UITabbarController的都知道,UITabbarController可以在多个UIViewController中切换,来显示多个界面,先来看一下层级关系:
TabbarController作为根视图,然后添加了一个ChildViewController,最后用户看到内容是ChildViewController的视图内容和底部的TabBar
首先我们新建一个新的工程,选择Single View Application,启用StoryBoard,将其默认的ViewController作为ContainerViewController,然后创建两个新的ViewController,分别作为两个childViewController,这样目录中就有这些文件:
我们先进入StoryBoard拖入两个UIButton,给两个button设置tag:
然后创建两个ViewController,这里我启用了xib,设置一下ViewController的背景色:
这里我一个设置了绿色,还有个设置了棕色,还分别在每个ViewController上添加了UILabel,用于区分
然后进入ContainerViewController.m,声明以下私有变量和方法:
@interface ContainerViewController () { FirstViewController *_firstViewController; SecondViewController *_secondViewController; NSMutableArray *_viewControllers; }
- (IBAction)buttonTouched:(id)sender;
FirstViewController和SecondViewController是两个ChildViewController,_viewControllers则是保存ChildViewController的数组,再去StoryBoard关联下点击事件
在viewDidLoad中初始化:
- (void)viewDidLoad { [super viewDidLoad]; _viewControllers = [@[] mutableCopy]; _firstViewController = [[FirstViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"FirstViewController" bundle:nil]; _secondViewController = [[SecondViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"SecondViewController" bundle:nil]; [_viewControllers addObject:_firstViewController]; [_viewControllers addObject:_secondViewController]; [self loadViewControllerAtIndex:0]; }
实例化了两个ViewController,然后将两个ViewController添加至数组中
关键部分来了,loadViewControllerAtIndex用于切换视图控制器,以下是实现:
- (void)loadViewControllerAtIndex:(NSInteger)index { NSInteger nextIndex = 0; if (index == 0) { nextIndex = 1; } else if (index == 1) { nextIndex = 0; } UIViewController *fromViewController = _viewControllers[nextIndex];// 获取当前viewController UIViewController *toViewController = _viewControllers[index];// 获取将要切换的viewController
// if (self.childViewControllers.firstObject == toViewController) { return; } if (self.childViewControllers.count > 0) { self.view.userInteractionEnabled = NO;// 切换过程中禁用操作,等切换动画结束后恢复 [fromViewController willMoveToParentViewController:nil];// fromViewController将要移除 [self addChildViewController:toViewController];// 将toViewController添加至ContainerViewController
// 设置view的frame if (index == 1) { toViewController.view.frame = [self nextViewStartFrame]; } else { toViewController.view.frame = [self preViewStartFrame]; }
// 官方提供的切换动画API,在这里执行切换动画 [self transitionFromViewController:fromViewController toViewController:toViewController duration:0.25 options:UIViewAnimationOptionCurveEaseInOut animations:^{
// 执行动画 if (index == 1) { fromViewController.view.frame = [self preViewStartFrame]; toViewController.view.frame = [self newViewStartFrame]; } else { fromViewController.view.frame = [self nextViewStartFrame]; toViewController.view.frame = [self newViewStartFrame]; } } completion:^(BOOL finished) {
// 动画执行完毕,从父视图添加或移除层级关系 if (finished) { [toViewController didMoveToParentViewController:self]; [fromViewController removeFromParentViewController]; self.view.userInteractionEnabled = YES; } }]; } else { [self addChildViewController:toViewController]; [self.view addSubview:toViewController.view]; [toViewController didMoveToParentViewController:self]; } }
- (CGRect)newViewStartFrame {
returnCGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, 320.0, 500.0);
}
- (CGRect)nextViewStartFrame {
returnCGRectMake(320.0, 0.0, 320.0, 500.0);
}
- (CGRect)preViewStartFrame {
returnCGRectMake(-320.0, 0.0, 320.0, 500.0);
}
这个函数用于切换视图,使用addChildViewController把要添加的ViewController添加至ContainerViewController,移除不需要显示的。添加一个ViewController有几个步骤:
1. [self addChildViewController:toViewController]; 添加至当前viewController
2. [self.view addSubView:toViewController.view]; 添加view至self.view中
3. [toViewController didMoveToParentViewController:self]; 当添加完成后要调用此方法来告知已经移动到父视图控制器中
移除一个ViewController也有几个步骤:
1. [fromViewController willMoveToParentViewController:nil]; 参数传入nil说明将要移除视图
2. [fromViewController.view removeFromSuperView]; 从父视图中移除fromViewController.view
3. [fromViewController removeFromParentViewController]; 将fromViewController从父视图层级中移除
想要添加和移除ViewController这几个步骤是必要的,但是这里由于使用了transitionFromViewController:toViewController:duration:options:animations:completion:这个方法,它会先将toViewController.view添加至superView,然后执行动画,所以省略了[self.view addSubView:toViewController.view]
这样切换函数就算完成了,然后我们实现按钮事件函数:
- (IBAction)buttonTouched:(id)sender { if (((UIButton *)sender).tag == 1) { [self loadViewControllerAtIndex:0]; } else { [self loadViewControllerAtIndex:1]; } }
点击不同的按钮切换不同的界面,最后运行效果如下:
这里只是大致实现了下切换效果,在iOS7中新增的UIViewControllerContextTransitioning和UIViewControllerAnimatedTransitioning增强了对自定义的切换,这篇文章做了详细说明http://objccn.io/issue-12-3/
