`ASViewController` is a subclass of `UIViewController` that adds several useful features for hosting `ASDisplayNode` hierarchies.
|
|
|
|
An `ASViewController` can be used in place of any `UIViewController` - including within a `UINavigationController`, `UITabBarController` and `UISplitViewController` or as a modal view controller.
|
|
|
|
Benefits of using an `ASViewController`:
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li><b>Save Memory</b>. An <code>ASViewController</code> that goes off screen will automatically reduce the size of the <a href="intelligent-preloading.html">fetch data</a> and <a href="intelligent-preloading.html">display ranges</a> of any of its children. This is key for memory management in large applications. </li>
|
|
<li><b><a href="asvisibility.html"><code>ASVisibility</code></a> Feature</b>. When used in an <code>ASNavigationController</code> or <code>ASTabBarController</code>, these classes know the exact number of user taps it would take to make the view controller visible.</li>
|
|
</ol>
|
|
|
|
More features will be added over time, so it is a good idea to base your view controllers off of this class.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
A `UIViewController` provides a view of its own. An `ASViewController` is assigned a node to manage in its designated initializer `-initWithNode:`.
|
|
|
|
Consider the following `ASViewController` subclass, `PhotoFeedNodeController`, from the <a href="https://github.com/texturegroup/texture/tree/master/examples/ASDKgram">ASDKgram example project</a> that would like to use a table node as its managed node.
|
|
|
|
This table node is assigned to the `ASViewController` in its `-initWithNode:` designated initializer method.
|
|
|
|
<div class = "highlight-group">
|
|
<span class="language-toggle"><a data-lang="swift" class="swiftButton">Swift</a><a data-lang="objective-c" class = "active objcButton">Objective-C</a></span>
|
|
<div class = "code">
|
|
<pre lang="objc" class="objcCode">
|
|
- (instancetype)init
|
|
{
|
|
_tableNode = [[ASTableNode alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewStylePlain];
|
|
self = [super initWithNode:_tableNode];
|
|
|
|
if (self) {
|
|
_tableNode.dataSource = self;
|
|
_tableNode.delegate = self;
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
return self;
|
|
}
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
<pre lang="swift" class = "swiftCode hidden">
|
|
init(models: [Model]) {
|
|
let tableNode = ASTableNode(style: .plain)
|
|
|
|
super.init(node: tableNode)
|
|
|
|
self.models = models
|
|
|
|
self.tableNode = tableNode
|
|
self.tableNode.delegate = self
|
|
self.tableNode.dataSource = self
|
|
}
|
|
</pre>
|
|
</div>
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
<div class = "note">
|
|
<b>Conversion Tip</b>: If your app already has a complex view controller hierarchy, it is perfectly fine to have all of them subclass <code>ASViewController</code>. That is to say, even if you don't use <code>ASViewController</code>'s designated initializer <code>-initWithNode:</code>, and only use the <code>ASViewController</code> in the manner of a traditional <code>UIViewController</code>, this will give you the additional node support if you choose to adopt it in different areas your application.
