没有Storyboard的TableView Cell中的iOS Swift Segue

Question

I am having trouble on performing a segue when you click on a tableView's cell. I am not using storyboard at all in the application (deleted the storyboard file), and was wondering how I could perform this segue. Note:

1. My tableView is in a different file than the viewController that displays it. So in my ViewController i have this line:

   let tableView = MyTableView(restaurants_data: restaurants, frame: CGRect(), style: .Plain) view.addSubview(tableView)

2. So since MyTableView.swift is the file where the didSelectRowAtIndexPath function is located at I cant do something like

   self.navigationController?.showViewController(destinationVC, sender:nil)

So, how do I perform a segue when the user clicks on the cell, given that I am using a custom TableView and my application is not using StoryBoard? Thanks a lot in advance

Add a reference for the viewController inside your tableView

and initialise it in the viewController init var controller : UIViewController

controller.presentViewController(viewControllerToPresent: UIViewController, animated: Bool, completion: block?>)
