Pass Object details to another view [SwiftUI]

Question

Facing problem to understand how to move Object details to another view using NavigationLink, I have read many articles and watched video, they all do the same as I do except for the Preview struct, they use local data and easily they map the view to the first item of the data like data[0]. While in my case, I fetch the data online, hence the above way did not help me to overcome the issue with the Preview struct, ERROR: Missing argument for parameter

Answer 1

The error you get "Preview struct, ERROR: Missing argument for parameter", typically is because you did not provide the required parameters to the Preview.

ViewPostView expect to be passed "var post: Posts", so in ViewPostView_Previews you need to provide that, for example:

    struct ViewPostView_Previews: PreviewProvider {
    static var previews: some View {
        ViewPostView(post: Posts(id: 1, title: "title", ... ))
    }
}
