One of the first questions people ask about TTNavigator is how to pass native objects around, rather than encoding them somehow in a URL. There is a simple pattern for this, using the query property of TTURLAction (or its equivalent convenience function, applyQuery:). For example, imagine you wanted to pass along an NSArray of items to show in the new view:

NSArray *arr = [...load up with data...];
[[TTNavigator navigator] openURLAction:[[TTURLAction actionWithURLPath:@"tt://restaurant/Chotchkie's"]
  applyQuery:[NSDictionary dictionaryWithObject:arr forKey:@"arrayData"]]];

In this example, the array is passed directly to the initWithName: but only if there is a matching selector that accepts the query:

-(id) initWithName: (NSString*)name query:(NSDictionary*)query {
  for (MyObject* item in [query objectForKey:@"arrayData"])
    //... do something with item ...
  }

  // ...
}
