It seems that certain SwiftUI views create new environment contexts, such as NavigationLink. None of the environment is available in the new view.
As a workaround, I've been just manually forwarding through environment variables, like this:
struct ExampleView: View {
@EnvironmentObject var foo: UserStore
@EnvironmentObject var bar: UserStore
var body: some View {
NavigationLink(destination:
SomeOtherView()
.environmentObject(self.foo)
.environmentObject(self.bar)
) {
Text("Open View")
}
}
}
However this seems broken, as it violates the purpose of the environment. Also, it's confusing because it's not clear (or documented?) where these boundaries are and it causes a runtime error when a view depends on a missing EnvironmentObject.
Is there a better way to do this?
Similarly, I want to create a wrapper UIViewControllerRepresentable that can contain SwiftUI children (via UIHostingController) and I would like those children to have access to the environment as well.
