How to set same viewmodel to two views in fresh mvvm in xamarin forms

Question

I have two views Add and Edit view both views are different UI but same viewmodel. By using mvvm i have set binding context to both view as same viewmodel. I am new to fresh mvvm. In fresh mvvm, I don't know how to set same viewmodel to two views. Another one is, I have passing parameter to the viewmodel constructor, how it is possible in fresh mvvm. Please give your valuable suggestion.

Answer 1

Normally, the accompanying view would be inferred by the names. But for this use case, you should explicitly mention which view to use. There is a method for that, you should be able to use it like this:

// For adding
CoreMethods.PushPageModel<AddEditViewModel, AddView>();

// For editing
CoreMethods.PushPageModel<AddEditViewModel, EditView>();

Of course, taking into account the actual parameters that you still need to specify for the PushPageModel method. Also, I have assumed the names of your view model and views here, but I hope it gets the point across.
