A custom UINavigationController that enables the scrolling of the navigation bar alongside the scrolling of an observed content view

Versioning notes

Version 2.x is written as a subclass of UINavigationController, in Swift.
Version 2.0.0 introduce Swift 2.0 syntax. Checkout 2.0.0.beta for Swift 1.2.
If you are looking for the category implementation in Objective-C, make sure to checkout version 1.x and prior, although the 2.x is recomended.

##Usage

Make sure to use a subclass of ScrollingNavigationController for your UINavigationController. Either set the class of your UINavigationController in your storyboard, or create programmatically a ScrollingNavigationController instance in your code.

Use followScrollView(_: delay:) to start following the scrolling of a scrollable view (e.g.: a UIScrollView or UITableView). ####Swift

override func viewWillAppear(animated: Bool) {
    super.viewWillAppear(animated)

    if let navigationController = self.navigationController as? ScrollingNavigationController {
        navigationController.followScrollView(tableView, delay: 50.0)
    }
}

####Objective-C

- (void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated {
    [super viewWillAppear:animated];

    [(ScrollingNavigationController *)self.navigationController followScrollView:self.tableView delay:50.0f];
}

Use stopFollowingScrollview() to stop the behaviour. Remember to call this function on disappear:

override func viewDidDisappear(animated: Bool) {
    super.viewDidDisappear(animated)

    if let navigationController = self.navigationController as? ScrollingNavigationController {
        navigationController.stopFollowingScrollView()
    }
}

##ScrollingNavigationViewController To DRY things up you can let your view controller subclass ScrollingNavigationViewController, which provides the base setup implementation. You will just need to call followScrollView(_: delay:):

override func viewWillAppear(animated: Bool) {
    super.viewWillAppear(animated)

    if let navigationController = self.navigationController as? ScrollingNavigationController {
        navigationController.followScrollView(tableView, delay: 50.0)
    }
}

##ScrollingNavigationControllerDelegate You can set a delegate to receive a call when the state of the navigation bar changes:

if let navigationController = self.navigationController as? ScrollingNavigationController {
    navigationController.scrollingNavbarDelegate = self
}

Delegate function:

func scrollingNavigationController(controller: ScrollingNavigationController, didChangeState state: NavigationBarState) {
    switch state {
    case .Collapsed:
        print("navbar collapsed")
    case .Expanded:
        print("navbar expanded")
    case .Scrolling:
        print("navbar is moving")
    }
}
