A small class that creates a stack view like those seen on Path, Facebook, and more. Closely follows the UINavigationController pattern with push and pop methods.

There are a lot of really nice stack view controllers out there, but I wanted to create something that was simple to use and gave me the ability to push and pop controllers on the navigation list with no real effort.

There are a couple of ways you can use this controller, you can either extend it, so you can design/layout your own navigation list view (which is a tableView, of course). When extending just make sure to only override UITableView datasource methods, and if you override selectRowAtIndexPath, be sure to call super. The other way (as a simple demo in the app delegate shows) is to just drop it in and start using it.

There is a category that adds to items to UIViewController based objects, UIViewController+WCStackNavigationController, I would throw this in your prefetch so all your view controllers can have the added attributes.

The attributes added are:

• stackTitle - This is the title you would like to see displayed on the navigation menu.
• stackIcon - The image you would like to use to display with your stackTitle on the navigation list.

// If Yes, when a controller in navigation is selected, the view will slide closed. - (BOOL)stackControllerWillCloseNavigationWhenSelected; // The size of the visible view when slide to the right - (CGFloat)stackControllerSlideOffset; // Allow for user to swipe the nav open/close - (BOOL)stackControllerEnableSwipeForNavigation; // Called before moving to a new view/view controller. - (void)stackController:(WCStackNavigationController *)stackController willNavigateToViewController:(UIViewController *)viewController; - (void)stackController:(WCStackNavigationController *)stackController willNavigateFromViewController:(UIViewController *)viewController; // Called when navgation to the new controller is complete. - (void)stackController:(WCStackNavigationController *)stackController didNavigateToViewController:(UIViewController *)viewController; - (void)stackController:(WCStackNavigationController *)stackController didNavigateFromViewController:(UIViewController *)viewController;

// Push a controller on to the stack and display as current view - (void)pushViewController:(UIViewController *)viewController; // Remove a controller from the stack, if removing current controller, will move to previous controller - (void)popViewController:(UIViewController *)viewController; // Hides Navigation bar - (void)setNavigationBarHidden:(BOOL)shouldHide; // Hides Navigation bar with some animation - (void)setNavigationBarHidden:(BOOL)shouldHide animated:(BOOL)animated;

If you want to customize the look of your our stack nav controller, you can. If you wish to alter the cells, you just have to extend WCStackNavigationController and simply overwrite:

- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath

• This project uses ARC
• Initial project with many plans to expand.

• Ability to not have/not add item to the navigation list
• Optional Right side menu/nav.
