Perform Segue Programmatically Without Button Connection?

Question

I have two view controllers in my storyboard and I need to push from view 1 to view 2.

I need to do this without connecting a segue directly from a button in my storyboard, I need to do it programatically.

How can I?

Thanks.

When you click the button call:

[self performSegueWithIdentifier:@"SegueIdentifier" sender:self];

You will need to create the segue in the storyboard but you can do it from view controller to view controller instead of button to viewcontroller.

This make the navigation so weird. It doesn't animate, also the destination view take too long time to layout. Any idea? – Envil Apr 08 '14 at 16:58
What is the difference between this and using the navigation stack? – Subby Jul 19 '14 at 22:24

@Subby you have to use Navigation controller for moving to next view either Segue or Navigation stack. But using Segue controller puts a visual wiring in your storyboard and you can visually see each screen source and destination. This is very helpful when you have 30 to 40 screens in your app – AsifHabib Nov 30 '15 at 09:20

If you want to perform an action without click (or while loading the viewController itself), do this code in either

- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
[self performSegueWithIdentifier:@"NameOfYourSequeIdentifier" sender:self];
 }

or

-(void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated {
[self performSegueWithIdentifier:@"NameOfYourSequeIdentifier" sender:self];
}

Completely w/o segues

[self.navigationController pushViewController:[self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"YourViewControllerIDinStoryBoard"] animated:YES];
