SDAO 2.5.3

  • By
  • incetro

An implementation of DAO pattern for CoreData and Realm. Now you can think less about database in your applications.

Features

  • CRUD operations for your database based on Monreau
  • Abstraction of database objects (models) from application objects (plains)

Supported frameworks

  • CoreData
  • Realm

Usage

import Monreau
import DAO

/// Create DAO instance
let dao = DAO(
    storage: RealmStorage<UserModelObject>,
    translator: UsersTranslator()
)

// Obtain messages (from backend for example)
let messages = messagesService.obtainMessages()

/// Save messages 
try dao.persist(messages)

/// Obtain some info from database
let count = try dao.read().count

/// Erase all messages from database
try dao.erase()

How it works

  1. Create some database model class
// MARK: - DialogModelObject

final class DialogModelObject: RealmModel {

    // MARK: - Properties

    /// True if the dialog has been pinned
    @objc dynamic var isPinned = false

    /// All available (stored) the dialog's messages
    let messages = List<MessageModelObject>()
}

// MARK: - MessageModelObject

final class MessageModelObject: RealmModel {

    /// Sending date
    @objc dynamic var date = Date()

    /// Message text
    @objc dynamic var text = ""

    /// Receiver's id
    @objc dynamic var receiverId = 0

    /// Sender's id
    @objc dynamic var senderId = 0

    /// Message type
    @objc dynamic var type = 0

    /// True if the message is incoming
    @objc dynamic var isIncoming = false

    /// True if the message has been read
    @objc dynamic var isRead = false
}
  1. Create plain object class/struct
import DAO
import Foundation

// MARK: - MessagePlainObject

struct MessagePlainObject: Plain {

    // MARK: - Plain

    var uniqueId: UniqueID {
        return UniqueID(value: id)
    }
    
    // MARK: - Properties

    /// Unique identifier
    let id: Int

    /// Sending date
    let date: Date

    /// Message text
    let text: String

    /// Sender's id
    let senderId: Int

    /// Receiver's id
    let receiverId: Int

    /// Message type
    let type: Int

    /// True if the message is incoming
    let isIncoming: Bool

    /// True if the message has been read
    let isRead: Bool
}

// MARK: - DialogPlainObject

struct DialogPlainObject: Plain {

    // MARK: - Plain

    var uniqueId: UniqueID {
        return UniqueID(value: id)
    }
    
    // MARK: - Properties

    /// Unique id
    let id: Int

    /// True if the dialog has been pinned
    let isPinned: Bool

    /// All available (stored) the dialog's messages
    let messages: [MessagePlainObject]
}
  1. Create Translator class
// MARK: - MessageTranslator

final class MessageTranslator {

    // MARK: - Aliases

    typealias PlainModel = MessagePlainObject
    typealias DatabaseModel = MessageModelObject
}

// MARK: - Translator

extension MessageTranslator: Translator {

    func translate(model: DatabaseModel) throws -> PlainModel {
        MessagePlainObject(
            id: Int(model.uniqueId) ?? 0,
            date: model.date,
            text: model.text,
            senderId: model.senderId,
            receiverId: model.receiverId,
            type: model.type,
            isIncoming: model.isIncoming,
            isRead: model.isRead
        )
    }
    
    func translate(plain: PlainModel) throws -> DatabaseModel {
        let model = MessageModelObject()
        try translate(from: plain, to: model)
        return model
    }

    func translate(from plain: PlainModel, to databaseModel: DatabaseModel) throws {
        if databaseModel.uniqueId.isEmpty {
            databaseModel.uniqueId = plain.uniqueId.rawValue
        }
        databaseModel.date = plain.date
        databaseModel.isIncoming = plain.isIncoming
        databaseModel.isRead = plain.isRead
        databaseModel.senderId = plain.senderId
        databaseModel.text = plain.text
        databaseModel.type = plain.type
        databaseModel.receiverId = plain.receiverId
    }
}

// MARK: - DialogTranslator

final class DialogTranslator {

    // MARK: - Aliases

    typealias PlainModel = DialogPlainObject
    typealias DatabaseModel = DialogModelObject
}

// MARK: - Translator

extension DialogTranslator: Translator {

    func translate(model: DatabaseModel) throws -> PlainModel {
        DialogPlainObject(
            id: Int(model.uniqueId) ?? 0,
            isPinned: model.isPinned,
            messages: try MessagesTranslator().translate(
                models: Array(model.messages)
            )
        )
    }

    func translate(plain: PlainModel) throws -> DatabaseModel {
        let model = DialogModelObject()
        try translate(from: plain, to: model)
        return model
    }
    
    func translate(from plain: PlainModel, to databaseModel: DatabaseModel) throws {
        if databaseModel.uniqueId.isEmpty {
            databaseModel.uniqueId = plain.uniqueId.rawValue
        }
        databaseModel.isPinned = plain.isPinned
        databaseModel.messages.removeAll()
        databaseModel.messages.append(
            objectsIn: try MessagesTranslator().translate(
                plains: plain.messages
            )
        )
    }
}
  1. Use it
let dao = DAO(
    storage: RealmStorage<DialogModelObject>,
    translator: DialogTranslator()
)

// Obtain messages (from backend for example)
let dialogs = dialogsService.obtainDialogs()

...

/// Obtain messages from your database
let dialogs = try dao.read()

Requirements

  • iOS 10.0+ / macOS 10.12+ / tvOS 10.0+ / watchOS 3.0+
  • Xcode 9.0
  • Swift 5

Communication

  • If you found a bug, open an issue.
  • If you have a feature request, open an issue.
  • If you want to contribute, submit a pull request.

Installation

CocoaPods

CocoaPods is a dependency manager for Cocoa projects. You can install it with the following command:

$ gem install cocoapods

To integrate DAO into your Xcode project using CocoaPods, specify it in your Podfile:

use_frameworks!

target "<Your Target Name>" do
    pod "SwiftyDAO"
end

Then, run the following command:

$ pod install

Manually

If you prefer not to use any dependency managers, you can integrate DAO into your project manually.

Embedded Framework

  • Open up Terminal, cd into your top-level project directory, and run the following command "if" your project is not initialized as a git repository:

    $ git init

  • Add DAO as a git submodule by running the following command:

    $ git submodule add https://github.com/incetro/DAO.git

  • Open the new DAO folder, and drag the DAO.xcodeproj into the Project Navigator of your application's Xcode project.

    It should appear nested underneath your application's blue project icon. Whether it is above or below all the other Xcode groups does not matter.

  • Select the DAO.xcodeproj in the Project Navigator and verify the deployment target matches that of your application target.

  • Next, select your application project in the Project Navigator (blue project icon) to navigate to the target configuration window and select the application target under the "Targets" heading in the sidebar.

  • In the tab bar at the top of that window, open the "General" panel.

  • Click on the + button under the "Embedded Binaries" section.

  • You will see two different DAO.xcodeproj folders each with two different versions of the DAO.framework nested inside a Products folder.

    It does not matter which Products folder you choose from, but it does matter whether you choose the top or bottom DAO.framework.

  • Select the top DAO.framework for iOS and the bottom one for OS X.

    You can verify which one you selected by inspecting the build log for your project. The build target for Nio will be listed as either DAO iOS, DAO macOS, DAO tvOS or DAO watchOS.

  • And that's it!

    The DAO.framework is automagically added as a target dependency, linked framework and embedded framework in a copy files build phase which is all you need to build on the simulator and a device.
