Question 1

How do I handle modal presentations with WAAppRouting?

Accepted Answer

WAAppRouting supports modal presentation using the '!' character in route paths, but it cannot push controllers after a modal is presented. For complex flows, you may need custom handlers or workarounds, as noted in the limitations section.

Question 2

WAAppRouting vs DeepLinkKit: which should I use?

Accepted Answer

WAAppRouting was inspired by DeepLinkKit but adds automatic stack management and protocol-oriented design. Choose WAAppRouting if you need controller stack preservation; DeepLinkKit is better for basic deep linking without navigation stack concerns.

Question 3

Can I use WAAppRouting with SwiftUI?

Accepted Answer

WAAppRouting is designed for UIKit and does not have built-in SwiftUI support. Integrating it with SwiftUI requires bridging to UIKit view controllers, which can be cumbersome in SwiftUI-centric apps.

Question 4

How to integrate WAAppRouting with a tab bar controller?

Accepted Answer

The library supports tab bar controllers by treating each tab as a separate navigation context. Configure presenting controllers appropriately, as demonstrated in the MoreComplexExample sample project.

Question 5

What are WAAppLinkParameters and why should I use them?

Accepted Answer

WAAppLinkParameters provide type-safe parameter management to avoid hardcoding URL keys. They map URL parameters to object properties, making code more maintainable and reducing regressions when URL schemas change.

Question 6

How to create a custom route matcher in WAAppRouting?

Accepted Answer

Implement the WAAppRouteMatcherProtocol with methods for URL matching and parameter extraction, then instantiate the router with your custom matcher, as described in the 'Customize router behavior' section of the README.

Question 7

Does WAAppRouting support complex query parameters?

Accepted Answer

The default route matcher has basic support for query parameters; for advanced needs like key=value1,value2 formats, you must implement a custom route matcher, as mentioned in the customization options.
