NavigationViewControllerDelegate

public protocol NavigationViewControllerDelegate : VisualInstructionDelegate

The NavigationViewControllerDelegate protocol provides methods for configuring the map view shown by a NavigationViewController and responding to the cancellation of a navigation session.

For convenience, several location-related methods in the NavigationServiceDelegate protocol have corresponding methods in this protocol.

  • Called when the navigation view controller is dismissed, such as when the user ends a trip.

    Default Implementation

    UnimplementedLogging prints a warning to standard output the first time this method is called.

    Declaration

    Swift

    func navigationViewControllerDidDismiss(_ navigationViewController: NavigationViewController, byCanceling canceled: Bool)

    Parameters

    navigationViewController

    The navigation view controller that was dismissed.

    canceled

    True if the user dismissed the navigation view controller by tapping the Cancel button; false if the navigation view controller dismissed by some other means.

  • Called when movement of the user updates the route progress model.

    Default Implementation

    UnimplementedLogging prints a warning to standard output the first time this method is called.

    Declaration

    Swift

    func navigationViewController(_ navigationViewController: NavigationViewController, didUpdate progress: RouteProgress, with location: CLLocation, rawLocation: CLLocation)

    Parameters

    navigationViewController

    The ViewController that received the new locations.

    progress

    the RouteProgress model that was updated.

    location

    the guaranteed location, possibly snapped, associated with the progress update.

    rawLocation

    the raw location, from the location manager, associated with the progress update.

  • Called as the user approaches a waypoint.

    This message is sent, once per progress update, as the user is approaching a waypoint. You can use this to cue UI, to do network pre-loading, etc.

    Note

    This method will likely be called several times as you approach a destination. To respond to the user’s arrival only once, your delegate can define a property that keeps track of whether this method has already been called for the given waypoint.

    Default Implementation

    UnimplementedLogging prints a warning to standard output the first time this method is called.

    Declaration

    Swift

    func navigationViewController(_ navigationViewController: NavigationViewController, willArriveAt waypoint: Waypoint, after remainingTimeInterval: TimeInterval, distance: CLLocationDistance)

    Parameters

    navigationViewController

    The Navigation VC that is detecting the users’ approach.

    waypoint

    The waypoint that the service is arriving at.

    remainingTimeInterval

    The estimated number of seconds until arrival.

    distance

    The current distance from the waypoint, in meters.

  • Called when the user arrives at the destination waypoint for a route leg.

    This method is called when the navigation view controller arrives at the waypoint. You can implement this method to prevent the navigation view controller from automatically advancing to the next leg. For example, you can and show an interstitial sheet upon arrival and pause navigation by returning false, then continue the route when the user dismisses the sheet. If this method is unimplemented, the navigation view controller automatically advances to the next leg when arriving at a waypoint.

    Postcondition

    If you return false within this method, you must manually advance to the next leg: obtain the value of the navigationService and its NavigationService.routeProgress property, then increment the RouteProgress.legIndex property.

    Default Implementation

    UnimplementedLogging prints a warning to standard output the first time this method is called.

    Declaration

    Swift

    func navigationViewController(_ navigationViewController: NavigationViewController, didArriveAt waypoint: Waypoint) -> Bool

    Parameters

    navigationViewController

    The navigation view controller that has arrived at a waypoint.

    waypoint

    The waypoint that the user has arrived at.

    Return Value

    True to automatically advance to the next leg, or false to remain on the now completed leg.

  • Returns whether the navigation view controller should be allowed to calculate a new route.

    If implemented, this method is called as soon as the navigation view controller detects that the user is off the predetermined route. Implement this method to conditionally prevent rerouting. If this method returns true, navigationViewController(_:willRerouteFrom:) will be called immediately afterwards.

    Default Implementation

    UnimplementedLogging prints a warning to standard output the first time this method is called.

    Declaration

    Swift

    func navigationViewController(_ navigationViewController: NavigationViewController, shouldRerouteFrom location: CLLocation) -> Bool

    Parameters

    navigationViewController

    The navigation view controller that has detected the need to calculate a new route.

    location

    The user’s current location.

    Return Value

    True to allow the navigation view controller to calculate a new route; false to keep tracking the current route.

  • Called immediately before the navigation view controller calculates a new route.

    This method is called after navigationViewController(_:shouldRerouteFrom:) is called, simultaneously with the RouteControllerWillReroute notification being posted, and before navigationViewController(_:didRerouteAlong:) is called.

    Default Implementation

    UnimplementedLogging prints a warning to standard output the first time this method is called.

    Declaration

    Swift

    func navigationViewController(_ navigationViewController: NavigationViewController, willRerouteFrom location: CLLocation?)

    Parameters

    navigationViewController

    The navigation view controller that will calculate a new route.

    location

    The user’s current location.

  • Called immediately after the navigation view controller receives a new route.

    This method is called after navigationViewController(_:willRerouteFrom:) and simultaneously with the RouteControllerDidReroute notification being posted.

    Default Implementation

    UnimplementedLogging prints a warning to standard output the first time this method is called.

    Declaration

  • Called when the navigation view controller fails to receive a new route.

    This method is called after navigationViewController(_:willRerouteFrom:) and simultaneously with the RouteControllerDidFailToReroute notification being posted.

    Default Implementation

    UnimplementedLogging prints a warning to standard output the first time this method is called.

    Declaration

    Swift

    func navigationViewController(_ navigationViewController: NavigationViewController, didFailToRerouteWith error: Error)

    Parameters

    navigationViewController

    The navigation view controller that has calculated a new route.

    error

    An error raised during the process of obtaining a new route.

  • Returns an MGLStyleLayer that determines the appearance of the route line.

    If this method is unimplemented, the navigation view controller’s map view draws the route line using an MGLLineStyleLayer.

    Default Implementation

    UnimplementedLogging prints a warning to standard output the first time this method is called.

    Declaration

    Swift

    func navigationViewController(_ navigationViewController: NavigationViewController, routeStyleLayerWithIdentifier identifier: String, source: MGLSource) -> MGLStyleLayer?
  • Returns an MGLStyleLayer that determines the appearance of the route line’s casing.

    If this method is unimplemented, the navigation view controller’s map view draws the route line’s casing using an MGLLineStyleLayer whose width is greater than that of the style layer returned by navigationViewController(_:routeStyleLayerWithIdentifier:source:).

    Default Implementation

    UnimplementedLogging prints a warning to standard output the first time this method is called.

    Declaration

    Swift

    func navigationViewController(_ navigationViewController: NavigationViewController, routeCasingStyleLayerWithIdentifier identifier: String, source: MGLSource) -> MGLStyleLayer?
  • navigationViewController(_:shapeFor:) Default implementation

    Returns an MGLShape that represents the path of the route line.

    If this method is unimplemented, the navigation view controller’s map view represents the route line using an MGLPolylineFeature based on route’s coordinates property.

    Default Implementation

    UnimplementedLogging prints a warning to standard output the first time this method is called.

    Declaration

    Swift

    func navigationViewController(_ navigationViewController: NavigationViewController, shapeFor routes: [Route]) -> MGLShape?
  • Returns an MGLShape that represents the path of the route line’s casing.

    If this method is unimplemented, the navigation view controller’s map view represents the route line’s casing using an MGLPolylineFeature identical to the one returned by navigationViewController(_:shapeFor:).

    Default Implementation

    UnimplementedLogging prints a warning to standard output the first time this method is called.

    Declaration

    Swift

    func navigationViewController(_ navigationViewController: NavigationViewController, simplifiedShapeFor route: Route) -> MGLShape?
  • Returns an MGLStyleLayer that marks the location of each destination along the route when there are multiple destinations. The returned layer is added to the map below the layer returned by navigationViewController(_:waypointSymbolStyleLayerWithIdentifier:source:).

    If this method is unimplemented, the navigation view controller’s map view marks each destination waypoint with a circle.

    Default Implementation

    UnimplementedLogging prints a warning to standard output the first time this method is called.

    Declaration

    Swift

    func navigationViewController(_ navigationViewController: NavigationViewController, waypointStyleLayerWithIdentifier identifier: String, source: MGLSource) -> MGLStyleLayer?
  • Returns an MGLStyleLayer that places an identifying symbol on each destination along the route when there are multiple destinations. The returned layer is added to the map above the layer returned by navigationViewController(_:waypointStyleLayerWithIdentifier:source:).

    If this method is unimplemented, the navigation view controller’s map view labels each destination waypoint with a number, starting with 1 at the first destination, 2 at the second destination, and so on.

    Default Implementation

    UnimplementedLogging prints a warning to standard output the first time this method is called.

    Declaration

    Swift

    func navigationViewController(_ navigationViewController: NavigationViewController, waypointSymbolStyleLayerWithIdentifier identifier: String, source: MGLSource) -> MGLStyleLayer?
  • Returns an MGLShape that represents the destination waypoints along the route (that is, excluding the origin).

    If this method is unimplemented, the navigation map view represents the route waypoints using navigationViewController(_:shapeFor:legIndex:).

    Default Implementation

    UnimplementedLogging prints a warning to standard output the first time this method is called.

    Declaration

    Swift

    func navigationViewController(_ navigationViewController: NavigationViewController, shapeFor waypoints: [Waypoint], legIndex: Int) -> MGLShape?
  • Called when the user taps to select a route on the navigation view controller’s map view.

    Declaration

    Swift

    func navigationViewController(_ navigationViewController: NavigationViewController, mapViewUserAnchorPoint mapView: NavigationMapView) -> CGPoint
  • Allows the delegate to decide whether to ignore a location update.

    This method is called on every location update. By default, the navigation view controller ignores certain location updates that appear to be unreliable, as determined by the CLLocation.isQualified property.

    Default Implementation

    The navigation view controller that discarded the location.

    location

    The location that will be discarded.

    Return Value

    If true, the location is discarded and the NavigationViewController will not consider it. If false, the location will not be thrown out.

  • Called to allow the delegate to customize the contents of the road name label that is displayed towards the bottom of the map view.

    This method is called on each location update. By default, the label displays the name of the road the user is currently traveling on.
