Different content view controllers

[prakashmaharjan]

How can we set content view controller with different view controllers for different index?

Hi, @prakashmaharjan

You can use any kind of class inheriting UIViewController to return value in PagingContentViewControllerDataSource
https://github.com/kazuhiro4949/PagingKit#1-prepare-data

Example:

Declaring the values as UIViewController

let data: [(menu: String, content: UIViewController)] = [
    (menu: "menu1", content: FooViewConotrller()),
    (menu: "menu2", content: BarViewController())
]

Declaring an associated value-type Enum for arbitrary typed UIViewControllers.

enum ContentViewController {
    case foo(vc: FooViewConotrller)
    case bar(vc: BarViewConotrller)

    var vc: UIViewController {
        switch data[index].vc {
           case .foo(let vc):
                return vc
           case .bar(let vc):
               return vc
        }
    }
}

let data: [(menu: String, content: ContentViewController)] = [
    (menu: "menu1", content: .foo(vc: FooViewConotrller())),
    (menu: "menu2", content: .bar(vc: BarViewController()))
]


func numberOfItemsForContentViewController(viewController: PagingContentViewController) -> Int {
    return data.count
}
    
func contentViewController(viewController: PagingContentViewController, viewControllerAt index: Int) -> UIViewController {
    return data.content.vc
}

If you have any question, feel free to ask me :)

Hello, following this issue, I was able to load different viewcontrollers as datasource. But is there a way to replace the UI for the storyboard scene related to that ViewController in the PagingContentViewController? sorry if the question is too obvious. Thanks.
