How to open another xamarin forms page form a item-click in a list view

Question

Hello I have a List View that I made in Xamarin forms and all I want it to do is when the user clicks a option in the List View it take them to another Xamarin forms page in my case it would be ContactInfo

heres my xaml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ContentPage xmlns="http://xamarin.com/schemas/2014/forms" xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml" x:Class="WebSearch.CountySelect" Title="ReadyMo">
  <StackLayout Padding="0,20,0,0">
   <Label Text="ReadyMo" FontAttributes="Bold" HorizontalOptions="Center" />
    <ListView x:Name="listView">
      <ListView.ItemTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
          <ViewCell>
            <Grid>
              <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
                <ColumnDefinition Width="0.5*" />
                <ColumnDefinition Width="0.2*" />
                <ColumnDefinition Width="0.3*" />
              </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
              <Label Text="{Binding Name}" FontAttributes="Bold" HorizontalOptions="Center">
              </Label>
            </Grid>
          </ViewCell>
        </DataTemplate>
      </ListView.ItemTemplate>

            Content = listView;


        }


    }
}

I very new to Xamarin Forms so any help would be amazing :) Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

so I figured it out my code in my app.cs was: public class App :

Application

    {
        public App()
        {
            MainPage = new MyFirstPage();
        }
    }

when it needed to be:

public class App : Application
{
    public App()
    {
        MainPage = new NavigationPage(new MyFirstPage());
    }
}

A little more research went a long way! :)

Answer 2

Application Class

public class App: Application
{
    public static NavigationPage MyNavigationPage;

    public App()
    {
        MyNavigationPage = new NavigationPage();
        MainPage = MyNavigation;
        MyNavigation.PushAsync(new Page_Countries, true);
    }
}

Custom ListView With BindableProperty Item Clicked

 public class MyListView : ListView
    {


        public MyListView()
        {
            this.ItemTapped += this.OnItemTapped;

        }

        public static BindableProperty ItemClickCommandProperty = BindableProperty.Create<MyListView, ICommand>(x => x.ItemClickCommand, null);

        public ICommand ItemClickCommand {
            get { return (ICommand)this.GetValue(ItemClickCommandProperty); }
            set { this.SetValue(ItemClickCommandProperty, value); }
        }


        private void OnItemTapped(object sender, ItemTappedEventArgs e) {
            if (e.Item != null && this.ItemClickCommand != null && this.ItemClickCommand.CanExecute(e)) {
                this.ItemClickCommand.Execute(e.Item);
                this.SelectedItem = null;
            }
        }

    }

ViewModel

class ViewModel_Countries

    private ObservableCollection<Models.Country> Countries;
    public ObservableCollection<Models.Country> PropertyCountries
    {
            set { SetProperty(ref Countries, value); }
            get { return Countries; }

    private ICommand countryItemClickCommand;
    public ICommand CountryItemClickCommand;

        }
    }

private async Task ExecuteCountryClickCommand()
{
    App.MyNavigation.PushAsync(MyNewPage, true);
}

}
