Construct navigation stack

[corysullivan]

When opening the app from a deeplink that references a viewcontroller that is 2, 3.. views deep in a UINavigationController stack, how do you build up the stack? In the included repo example if you do a cold start from safari using navigator://user/devxoul url, the user can never get back to the user list.

@Sully73, you should map both URLNavigable and URLOpenHandler to navigator://user/<username>. Use open() in cold-start to construct navigation stack and use push() or present() in navigating between view controllers.

Navigator.map("navigator://user/<username>", UserViewController.self)
Navigator.map("navigator://user/<username>") { url, values in
  gurad let userViewController = Navigator.viewController(for: url) as? UserViewController else {
    return false
  }
  constructNavigationStack(with: userViewController) // your custom function
}

func application(
  _ application: UIApplication,
  didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplicationLaunchOptionsKey: Any]?
) -> Bool {
  if let url = launchOptions?[.url] as? URL {
    Navigator.open(url) // use `open()`
  }
  return true
}
