Document how we do MVVM
Especially how hierarchies work and line up to the view and model layers (or don't).
:+1: for description. Most interesting aspect for me - how screen transition performed, who sit above the view-models. I practicing writing MVVM-like code little more than half of last year, so I want to look how another people will implement it, and have some reliable source for answering: "Why you do this?". :)
I would love to see some real-world examples of MVVM in use, as well as how to appropriately test the various components. :+1: from me as well.
If anyone is interested, I have started building a small demo app (https://github.com/DuneParkSoftware/RAC_MVVMDemo) to explore the MVVM pattern with RAC on iOS. I am fairly new to MVVM and RAC. If you check out the code and notice that I'm doing something inefficiently (or just plain wrong), please make a pull request.
So far, I have a singleton object that "does some work" in the background. Meanwhile, a view model watches the singleton's property and converts it for the view controller. The view controller, in turn, updates the display.
There is also a RACCommand on the view model that is bound to the view, and simulates sending next/error/complete signals based on the singleton's state.
In the past, I have experienced issues with the viewModel not being released when its owning viewController is discarded. Therefore, the code is liberally commented with NSLog's so I can make sure the viewModel gets dealloc'd properly and doesn't leak.
I'm not certain that I'm using the RVMViewModel active property and signals correctly. Also, I don't understand how the forwardSignalWhileActive: and throttleSignalWhileInactive: signals are meant to be used.
I've also gone ahead and opened an app that uses this repo: https://github.com/AshFurrow/C-41 Pull requests welcome :)
Not sure how it relates to how you do MVVM, but if it's similar I wouldn't mind writing the documentation for it for this repo. Let me know.
