UINavigationController that implements swipe to push/pop in an interactive animation. Just implement the InteractiveNavigation protocol on your ViewControllers you add to the nav stack to get custom transitions. Or implement a single animation and return it instead of the nil's in the UIViewControllerTransitioningDelegate and all transitions wil…

My code doesn't have this line animation = currentViewController.presentAnimation!. So I'm guessing that is code that you wrote, and the problem that you are having is that you are doing a force unwrap on presentAnimation and in your currentViewController its nil. The ! (force unwrap) operator in Swift is very dangerous and will cause this crash if the property you are unwrapping is actually nil.

Could you provide an example of how a ViewController would implement the InteractiveNavigation protocol ?

Just added TutorialViewController.swift and TutorialAnimation.swift files to show how I've used this. No guarantee that they work since they are just copy/pasted from a project I implemented them in.

@eoghain awesome, thanks a lot !

I just set my root view controller on CustomInteractiveAnimationNavigationController. So now can you please let me know, on root view controller how can i push my second with just using swipe. I don't want to use segue or button click to go into next view controller ?

@MiteshiOS The CustomInteractiveAnimationNavigationController will call either the showPrevious or showNext methods when the user swipes. So you'll need to implement those methods to do the correct pushing/popping of the viewControllers. I used Segues because when I build this it was easiest to setup all of my screens in IB and just link them all together via segues. You should be able to do programatic push/pop calls just like any other NavigationController in those methods.

@ eoghain Ok thanks for the information. Just let me know is there any way so i can derived showPrevious or showNext methods into my root view controller ?

try this - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ccrama/Slide-iOS/dc77f57db0173e49a24f5c0a7987bead063b152e/Slide%20for%20Reddit/SwipeForwardNavigationController.swift

@eoghain this works really well, thank you.
However, if you have say a UITableView on the underlying view controller, then cell row swipes will not work. Ideally you want the cell swipe (actually a pan) to be recognized and handled before the nav controller. I've experimented with shouldBeRequiredtoFailBy etc. but without luck. Thoughts on how to support this?
