Aqui estão alguns métodos CoreData genéricos que podem responder à sua pergunta:
import Foundation
import Cocoa
func addRecord<T: NSManagedObject>(_ type : T.Type) -> T
{
let entityName = T.description()
let context = app.managedObjectContext
let entity = NSEntityDescription.entity(forEntityName: entityName, in: context)
let record = T(entity: entity!, insertInto: context)
return record
}
func recordsInTable<T: NSManagedObject>(_ type : T.Type) -> Int
{
let recs = allRecords(T.self)
return recs.count
}
func allRecords<T: NSManagedObject>(_ type : T.Type, sort: NSSortDescriptor? = nil) -> [T]
{
let context = app.managedObjectContext
let request = T.fetchRequest()
do
{
let results = try context.fetch(request)
return results as! [T]
}
catch
{
print("Error with request: \(error)")
return []
}
}
func query<T: NSManagedObject>(_ type : T.Type, search: NSPredicate?, sort: NSSortDescriptor? = nil, multiSort: [NSSortDescriptor]? = nil) -> [T]
{
let context = app.managedObjectContext
let request = T.fetchRequest()
if let predicate = search
{
request.predicate = predicate
}
if let sortDescriptors = multiSort
{
request.sortDescriptors = sortDescriptors
}
else if let sortDescriptor = sort
{
request.sortDescriptors = [sortDescriptor]
}
do
{
let results = try context.fetch(request)
return results as! [T]
}
catch
{
print("Error with request: \(error)")
return []
}
}
func deleteRecord(_ object: NSManagedObject)
{
let context = app.managedObjectContext
context.delete(object)
}
func deleteRecords<T: NSManagedObject>(_ type : T.Type, search: NSPredicate? = nil)
{
let context = app.managedObjectContext
let results = query(T.self, search: search)
for record in results
{
context.delete(record)
}
}
func saveDatabase()
{
let context = app.managedObjectContext
do
{
try context.save()
}
catch
{
print("Error saving database: \(error)")
}
}
Supondo que haja uma configuração NSManagedObject para contato como esta:
class Contact: NSManagedObject
{
@NSManaged var contactNo: Int
@NSManaged var contactName: String
}
Esses métodos podem ser usados da seguinte maneira:
let name = "John Appleseed"
let newContact = addRecord(Contact.self)
newContact.contactNo = 1
newContact.contactName = name
let contacts = query(Contact.self, search: NSPredicate(format: "contactName == %@", name))
for contact in contacts
{
print ("Contact name = \(contact.contactName), no = \(contact.contactNo)")
}
deleteRecords(Contact.self, search: NSPredicate(format: "contactName == %@", name))
recs = recordsInTable(Contact.self)
print ("Contacts table has \(recs) records")
saveDatabase()
