Creating a transparent NavigationBar using Titanium Style Sheets

Appcelerator Titanium offers many ways to style the navigation bar for iOS apps, from changing out the title view all together, or just using simple colors. However, one of the most frequent requests I hear is how to make a truly transparent NavigationBar. This tutorial will cover that.

Getting started

Lets start with a pretty simple window style in the app.tss. This will ensure that the window style is applied globally.

Note: This can be used in a specific controller *.tss file if you only want this effect on a particular window.

If you want to use latest alloy with appc CLI command:

1. Update Alloy: [sudo] npm install -g alloy

2. Create file in your project <project root>/plugins/global.alloy/1.0/hooks/global_alloy_hook.js with content:

exports.init = function (logger, config, cli, appc) {
	delete process.env.ALLOY_PATH;
};

$.index.open();

var subViews = [];

function _doSomething(){
    alert('Something!');
}

Custom Alloy Tags based on Appcelerator Hyperloop modules

With Alloy and Hyperloop, you can quickly and easily expose native UI as Custom Alloy tags by leveraging the namespace (ns) attribute and commonjs modules.

Alloy allows you to create your own UI element that can be included into the XML View heirarchy in one of two ways, an Alloy Widget or through the use of Custom Tags.

To create your own custom tag, you link the tag to the commonjs module with the namespace attribute (ns). Here is an example using a custom tag to render a standard Titanium View:

exports.image = function(url, callback, directory) {
	
	if (directory === undefined) {
		var directory = 'cachedImages';
	}

	var filename = Ti.Utils.md5HexDigest(url);
	var file = Ti.Filesystem.getFile(Ti.Filesystem.applicationDataDirectory, directory, filename);
