ECSlidingViewController 2

ECSlidingViewController is a view controller container that manages a layered interface. The top layer anchors to the left or right side of the container while revealing the layer underneath it. This is most commonly known as the "Side Menu", "Slide Out", "Hamburger Menu/Drawer/Sidebar", etc...

Supports all screen sizes and orientations.

Features

The philosophy behind ECSlidingViewController is to provide simple defaults while being customizable. It may not work or look the way you want out of the box, but it doesn't get in the way when customizing it.

Well Behaved View Controller Container

Your view controllers will receive the appropriate view life cycle and rotation methods at the right time. Their layouts will be appropriately updated on rotation or bound changes while respecting their edgesForExtendedLayout property. This means you have control over how your view controllers position themselves under or below the status bar, navigation bar, or any other container that sets a topLayoutGuide.

ECSlidingViewController tries its best to feel like it is a part of the UIKit view controller container family, and it works when nesting any combination of them together.

Storyboards Support

Basic configuration can be done by using User Defined Runtime Attributes. ECSlidingViewController comes with a custom segue and supports unwind segues for transitioning between view controllers.

This feature is optional and everything can be done programmatically if you wanted. Just like any other view controller container, you will most likely use Storyboards with some programmatic customizations.

Custom Transitions

If the default sliding animation or swiping interaction to move the top view doesn't suit your needs, then you can customize them by providing your own.

Custom transitions use the new protocols introduced in iOS 7 while exposing an API similar to the API that the UIKit containers expose for custom transitions. You should feel right at home if you are familiar with the custom transition API in iOS 7.

Requirements

iOS 7
Xcode 5

Note: For iOS 5-7 support, ECSlidingViewController version 1.x is available on this branch.

Installation

Install with CocoaPods by adding the following to your Podfile:

platform :ios, '7.0'
pod 'ECSlidingViewController', '~> 2.0.3'

Note: We follow http://semver.org for versioning the public API.

Or copy the ECSlidingViewController/ directory from this repo into your project.

Documentation

Header Files

The public API is documented in the header files. It will automatically show up in Xcode 5's quick help, or you can view it online:

ECSlidingViewController Reference at cocoadocs.org

Sample Code

A good way to learn how to use ECSlidingViewController is to go through the example apps in Examples.xcworkspace. Each example has a README with an explanation of how things are done.

BasicMenu. Complete example using Storyboards with minimal code.
LayoutDemo. This is a universal app showcasing the layout.
TransitionFun. See how custom transitions are done.

Note: There is a problem with the simulator flashing the animation when cancelling an interactive transition. This does NOT happen on the device.
