Getting Started with MMDrawerController

ios, objective-c

Solution

EDIT: Sorry I initially misunderstood your app structure. The MMDrawerController should be the root view controller of your application. You should move this code from viewDidLoad to `application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:`. Add an MMDrawerController property to your app delegate, init the drawer controller with your appropriate views, and set the drawer controller to the `rootViewController` on your UIWindow. Do this along with setting the gesture modes as I described below and the drawer should work.

To get the basic open/closing gestures, set this properties on your drawer controller:

self.drawerController.openDrawerGestureModeMask = MMOpenDrawerGestureModeAll;
self.drawerController.closeDrawerGestureModeMask = MMCloseDrawerGestureModeAll;

These properties default to `MMOpenDrawerGestureModeNone` which is why you couldn't make anything slide. You can have a look at the MMOpenDrawerGestureMode and MMCloseDrawerGestureMode bitmasks to get finer grained settings if you desire.

You can also create UI controls that toggle the drawer by calling `toggleDrawerSide: animated: completion:`.

Problem

I'm trying to get MMDrawerController to work, and I'm having trouble. Here's is how much app is structured in my storyboard: Here's how I'm attempting to initialize it from within my root view controller: ``` //LCViewController.m #import "LCViewController.h" #import "MMDrawerController.h" @interface LCViewController () @property (nonatomic,strong) MMDrawerController * drawerController; @end @implementation LCViewController - (void)viewDidLoad { [super viewDidLoad]; self.drawerController = [[MMDrawerController alloc] initWithCenterViewController:[self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"centerNav"] leftDrawerViewController:[self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"menu"] rightDrawerViewController:nil]; } ... @end ``` When I build my app, all I see is my root view controller. Is there something else I'm supposed to do to implement the drawer functionality? I created a demo project to show how I'm trying to set up my app. You can download the Xcode workspace here. Thanks in advance for your help! I'm using Xcode 5 and iOS 7
