Core Data Tute 2 (Add / Delete / Search)

Core Data Tute 2 (Add / Delete / Search)

Step 1

Create a project like previous tutorial .... 

http://adrianmobileapplication.blogspot.com/2013/07/core-data-in-ios-for-beginners.html

Step 2

Create Entity & Attribute   like this...

Step 3

Add new Class call "ViewController" Class with ".xib" like Previous tutorial 

http://adrianmobileapplication.blogspot.com/2013/07/core-data-in-ios-for-beginners.html

and Design this UI in ViewControler.xib

Step 4

change the code in "ViewController.h" class . 

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>

@interface ViewController : UIViewController<UITextFieldDelegate>

@property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UITextField *studentNoTextField;

@property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UITextField *studentNameTextField;

@property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UILabel *displayLable;

- (IBAction)add:(id)sender;

- (IBAction)search:(id)sender;

- (IBAction)deleteStudent:(id)sender;

@end

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Step 5

Change the code in  "ViewController.m" class. In here You have to Import AppDelegate class

#import "ViewController.h"

#import "AppDelegate.h"

@interface ViewController ()

{

NSManagedObjectContext *context;

}

@end

@implementation ViewController

- (id)initWithNibName:(NSString *)nibNameOrNil bundle:(NSBundle *)nibBundleOrNil

{

self = [super initWithNibName:nibNameOrNil bundle:nibBundleOrNil];

if (self) {

// Custom initialization

}

return self;

}

// for hide the key board-----------------------------------

-(BOOL)textFieldShouldReturn:(UITextField *)textField

{

return [textField resignFirstResponder];

}

- (IBAction)add:(id)sender {

NSEntityDescription *entityDes=

[NSEntityDescription entityForName:@"Student" inManagedObjectContext:context];

NSManagedObject *newStudent =

[[NSManagedObject alloc]initWithEntity:entityDes insertIntoManagedObjectContext:context];

[newStudent setValue:self.studentNameTextField.text forKey:@"studentName"];

[newStudent setValue:self.studentNoTextField.text forKey:@"studentNo"];

NSError *error;

[context save:&error];

self.displayLable.text=@"Student Added";

_studentNoTextField.text=@"";

_studentNameTextField.text=@"";

}

- (IBAction)deleteStudent:(id)sender{

NSEntityDescription *entityDes=

[NSEntityDescription entityForName:@"Student" inManagedObjectContext:context];

NSFetchRequest *request=[[NSFetchRequest alloc]init];

[request setEntity:entityDes];

//we use "==" to get exact match-------------------------------------------------

NSPredicate *predicate=[NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:@"studentNo == %@",self.studentNoTextField.text];

[request setPredicate:predicate];

NSError *error;

NSArray *machingData=[context executeFetchRequest:request error:&error];

if(machingData.count<=0)

{

self.displayLable.text=@"No Student Deleted";

}

else{

// int count=0;

for(NSManagedObject *obj in machingData){

[context deleteObject:obj];

//++count;

}

[context save:&error];

// self.displayLable.text=[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%d Student deleted : ",count];

self.displayLable.text=[NSString stringWithFormat:@"Student deleted"];

}

}

- (IBAction)search:(id)sender {

NSEntityDescription *entityDes=

[NSEntityDescription entityForName:@"Student" inManagedObjectContext:context];

NSFetchRequest *request=[[NSFetchRequest alloc]init];

[request setEntity:entityDes];

//we use "==" to get exact match-------------------------------------------------

NSPredicate *predicate=[NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:@"studentNo == %@",self.studentNoTextField.text];

[request setPredicate:predicate];

NSError *error;

NSArray *machingData=[context executeFetchRequest:request error:&error];

if(machingData.count<=0)

{

self.displayLable.text=@"No Person Found";

}

else{

NSString *sno;

NSString *sName;

for(NSManagedObject *obj in machingData){

sno=[obj valueForKey:@"studentNo"];

sName=[obj valueForKey:@"studentName"];

}

self.displayLable.text=[NSString stringWithFormat:@"Student No : %@ , Student Name : %@ ",sno,sName];

NSLog(@"display :studentNo %@ ,studentName %@ ",sno,sName);

}

}

- (void)viewDidLoad

{

AppDelegate *appDelegate=[[UIApplication sharedApplication]delegate];

context=[appDelegate managedObjectContext];

[super viewDidLoad];

// Do any additional setup after loading the view from its nib.

[[self studentNameTextField]setDelegate:self];

[[self studentNoTextField]setDelegate:self];

}

- (void)didReceiveMemoryWarning

{

[super didReceiveMemoryWarning];

// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.

}

@end

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Step 6

same like previous tutorial you have to set ViewController as a RootViewController in AppDelegate.

To do that....

"- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions"  method in AppDelegate.h

#import "ViewController.h"

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions

{

self.window = [[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds]];

// Override point for customization after application launch.

ViewController *rootViewController=

[[ViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"ViewController" bundle:nil];

[self.window setRootViewController:rootViewController];

self.window.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];

[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];

return YES;

}

2 . After Click Search Button

Step 7                                                                                     

Run your App

3.After Click the add Button

Good Luck!

Core Data in IOS (for Beginners)

Core Data in IOS (for Beginners)

Introduction
Core Data is a schema-driven object graph management and persistence framework. 
Fundamentally, Core Data helps you to save model objects (in the sense of the model-view-controller design pattern) to a file and get them back again.

Core Data is available on iOS 3.0 and later.

Reference : - http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/DataManagement/Conceptual/iPhoneCoreData01/Introduction/Introduction.html 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What i am going to do is...

Step 1

Create a ARC Project ....

Click the ARC also

Step 2

Click the "CoreDataTute.xdatamodeled"

Click Add Entity icon and type Student(Table name)

 Click the plus Sign to add Attribute

Step 3

click this icon to see the table

Step 4

Add new class for your Project

Step 5

Type this code in your  .h class (which you add new class in above)

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>

@interface InsertDataViewController : UIViewController

{

 IBOutlet UITextField *nameField;

}

-(IBAction)save;

-(IBAction)Fetch;

@end

----------------------------------------------------------------

Step 6

Type this code in your  .m class (which you add new class in above)

Import the "AppDelegate.h"  .m class to your class

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#import "InsertDataViewController.h"

#import "AppDelegate.h"

@interface InsertDataViewController ()

@end

@implementation InsertDataViewController

- (id)initWithNibName:(NSString *)nibNameOrNil bundle:(NSBundle *)nibBundleOrNil

{

self = [super initWithNibName:nibNameOrNil bundle:nibBundleOrNil];

if (self) {

// Custom initialization

}

return self;

}

- (void)viewDidLoad

{

[super viewDidLoad];

// Do any additional setup after loading the view from its nib.

}

-(IBAction)save{

AppDelegate *appDelegate=(AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication]delegate];

//Entity for table name : Team

NSEntityDescription *entity=[NSEntityDescription insertNewObjectForEntityForName:@"Student" inManagedObjectContext:appDelegate.managedObjectContext];

//set value for the column name

[entity setValue:nameField.text forKey:@"name"];

NSError *error;

//its returns true when values inserted in database succesfuly otherwise false

BOOL isSaved= [appDelegate.managedObjectContext save:&error]; 

NSLog(@"Successfully Saved : flags @%d",isSaved);

}

-(IBAction)Fetch{

AppDelegate *appDelegate=(AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication]delegate];

//create Entity object for Table : Student

NSEntityDescription *entity=[NSEntityDescription entityForName:@"Student" inManagedObjectContext:appDelegate.managedObjectContext];

//create fetch request

NSFetchRequest *fetchRqst=[[NSFetchRequest alloc]init];

[fetchRqst setEntity:entity];

//Get all rows in mutable array

NSMutableArray *array=[[appDelegate.managedObjectContext executeFetchRequest:fetchRqst error:nil]mutableCopy];

//Core data return each row as managed object so we can access rows values through key value pair

for(NSManagedObject *obj in array)

{

   NSLog(@"SLIIT Student Names: %@\n",[obj valueForKey:@"name"]);

}

}

- (void)didReceiveMemoryWarning

{

[super didReceiveMemoryWarning];

// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.

}

@end

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Step 7

Design the following Ui and Connect those Method like this.....

Step 8

 go to the AppDelegate.m class and set Above viewController(in my case it is  InsertDataViewController)  as a Root View Controller

 to do that import view controller Header file to the AppDelegate.h class 

and change the code of   

"- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions"  method in AppDelegate.h

#import "InsertDataViewController.h"

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions

{

self.window = [[[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds]] autorelease];

// Override point for customization after application launch.

InsertDataViewController *rootViewController=

[[InsertDataViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"InsertDataViewController" bundle:nil];

[self.window setRootViewController:rootViewController];

self.window.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];

[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];

return YES;

}

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Step 9

Run Your App & insert some data and Click the fetch button ....

• After click Save Button

this mean your successfully  added .................!

• After Click Fetch Button

Good Luck!
