How to present view controller from right to left in iOS using Swift

by

It doesn’t matter if it is xib or storyboard that you are using. Normally, the right to left transition is used when you push a view controller into presentor’s UINavigiationController.

UPDATE

Added timing function kCAMediaTimingFunctionEaseInEaseOut

Sample project with Swift 4 implementation added to GitHub

Swift 3 & 4.2

let transition = CATransition()
transition.duration = 0.5
transition.type = CATransitionType.push
transition.subtype = CATransitionSubtype.fromRight
transition.timingFunction = CAMediaTimingFunction(name:CAMediaTimingFunctionName.easeInEaseOut)
view.window!.layer.add(transition, forKey: kCATransition)
present(dashboardWorkout, animated: false, completion: nil)

ObjC

CATransition *transition = [[CATransition alloc] init];
transition.duration = 0.5;
transition.type = kCATransitionPush;
transition.subtype = kCATransitionFromRight;
[transition setTimingFunction:[CAMediaTimingFunction functionWithName:kCAMediaTimingFunctionEaseInEaseOut]];
[self.view.window.layer addAnimation:transition forKey:kCATransition];
[self presentViewController:dashboardWorkout animated:false completion:nil];

Swift 2.x

let transition = CATransition()
transition.duration = 0.5
transition.type = kCATransitionPush
transition.subtype = kCATransitionFromRight
transition.timingFunction = CAMediaTimingFunction(name:kCAMediaTimingFunctionEaseInEaseOut)
view.window!.layer.addAnimation(transition, forKey: kCATransition)
presentViewController(dashboardWorkout, animated: false, completion: nil)

Seems like the animated parameter in the presentViewController method doesn’t really matter in this case of custom transition. It can be of any value, either true or false.
