Added UIBarButtonItem and code handlers to take action when they are clicked.

override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()

    // MARK:- UIBarButtonItem
    self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = UIBarButtonItem(
        barButtonSystemItem: .search,
        target: self,
        action: #selector(handleLeftBarButton))

Storyboard

Added a UINavigationBar, which is done by Embedding the view controller in Navigation Controller
- Click your view controller
- Editor > Embed In > Navigation Controller

Mapbox-Search

A Mapbox map with UISearchBar added using Swift, with minimal use of the storyboard.

Features

Built upon Mapbox UIBarButtonItem
Made with Xcode Version 9.1 (9B55), and Swift 4
Mapbox map disappears when searching and a UITableView pops up with filtered search results
The Search portion is based on the tutorial called UISearchController Tutorial: Getting Started from RayWenderlich.com. Please see the license file in each file for information.
Integrating UISearchController is a mixture of Storyboards and Swift code.
Based on event handlers for when the search is started or ended, the Mapbox mapView is hidden or displayed.

MapKit Starter

To make a MapKit view without a storyboard

In Info.plist, delete the key Main Storyboard file base name
Be sure to add the Maps Capability in Project > Capabilities
In your AppDelegate.swift, ``` func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {

window = UIWindow(frame: UIScreen.main.bounds)

if let window = window { window.backgroundColor = UIColor.white window.rootViewController = ViewController() window.makeKeyAndVisible() }

return true }
