注意: MagicalRecord 在 ARC 下运作,Core Data 是 ORM 方案,据说带来的麻烦比好处多,且 Core Data 建立的表没有主键,但对于对数据库没有性能要求,进行简单的数据操作完全够用,能简化无数的代码量.
MagicalRecord
In software engineering, the active record pattern is a design pattern found in software that stores its data in relational databases. It was named by Martin Fowler in his book Patterns of Enterprise Application Architecture. The interface to such an object would include functions such as Insert, Update, and Delete, plus properties that correspond more-or-less directly to the columns in the underlying database table.
在软件工程中,对象与数据库中的记录实时映射是一种设计模式,在处理关系型数据库的的软件中多有出现.这种设计模式被记录在 Martin Fowler 的<Patterns of Enterprise Application Architecture> 中.被操作对象的接口应该包含增删改查的方法,基本属性不多不少的刚好与数据库中的一条记录相对应.
Active record is an approach to accessing data in a database. A database table or view is wrapped into a class; thus an object instance is tied to a single row in the table. After creation of an object, a new row is added to the table upon save. Any object loaded gets its information from the database; when an object is updated, the corresponding row in the table is also updated. The wrapper class implements accessor methods or properties for each column in the table or view.
实时映射记录是一种操作数据库的方式,一个数据库的表被封装成一个对象;这个对象中的一个实例会对应着该表中的一条记录.当创建一个对象时,一条记录也被插入到表中并保存起来.任何被加载的对象中的属性信息都从数据库中读取;当一个对象更新时,这个数据库表中对应的记录也会更新.这个被封装的类实现了实时操作的方法,且其属性一一对应于数据库中表的属性.

MagicalRecord was inspired by the ease of Ruby on Rails' Active Record fetching. The goals of this code are:
- Clean up my Core Data related code
- Allow for clear, simple, one-line fetches
- Still allow the modification of the NSFetchRequest when request optimizations are needed
MagicalRecord 灵感来自于简洁的Ruby语言中 Rails' Active Record 查询方式. MagicalRecord 这个开源库的核心思想是:
- 清除 Core Data 相关的代码
- 简洁的清除,简单的一行搜索记录的功能
- 当然允许使用NSFetchRequest,当存在着复杂的搜索条件时
拙劣的翻译请勿见怪,以下是我在最新的 Xcode 5.1 开 ARC 的环境下的使用教程.
1. 将 MagicalRecord 文件夹拖入到工程文件中,引入 CoreData.frame 框架
2. 在 .pch 文件中引入头文件 CoreData+MagicalRecord.h
注:只能在.pch文件中引头文件,否则无法通过编译
3. 创建 Model.xcdatamodeld 文件,并创建一个 Student 的 ENTITIES,最后创建出 Student 类
4. 在 Appdelete.m 文件中写以下代码
以下是增删改查的基本操作,但注意一点,在做任何的数据库操作之前,请先初始化以下,在Appdelete载入时初始化一次即可,否则找不到数据库而崩溃,你懂的.
//设置数据库名字
[MagicalRecord setupCoreDataStackWithStoreNamed:@"Model.sqlite"];
增加
增加一条记录
Student *person = [Student MR_createEntity];
person.name = @"Y.X.";
[[NSManagedObjectContext MR_defaultContext] MR_saveToPersistentStoreAndWait];
注意:创建了对象后是需要执行存储操作的
查询
查询所有的记录
NSArray *students = [Student MR_findAll];
根据某个属性某个条件查询
NSArray *students = [Student MR_findByAttribute:@"name" withValue:@"Y.X."];
根据排序取得搜索结果
NSArray *students = [Student MR_findAllSortedBy:@"name" ascending:YES];
我不一一列举了,查看一下头文件就知道了.
查询所有记录
+ (NSArray *) MR_findAll;
根据上下文句柄查询所有记录
+ (NSArray *) MR_findAllInContext:(NSManagedObjectContext *)context;
根据某个属性排序查询所有记录
+ (NSArray *) MR_findAllSortedBy:(NSString *)sortTerm ascending:(BOOL)ascending;
根据某个属性排序以及上下文操作句柄查询所有记录
+ (NSArray *) MR_findAllSortedBy:(NSString *)sortTerm ascending:(BOOL)ascending inContext:(NSManagedObjectContext *)context;
根据某个属性排序用谓词来查询记录
+ (NSArray *) MR_findAllSortedBy:(NSString *)sortTerm ascending:(BOOL)ascending withPredicate:(NSPredicate *)searchTerm;
根据某个属性排序以及上下文操作句柄用谓词来查询记录
+ (NSArray *) MR_findAllSortedBy:(NSString *)sortTerm ascending:(BOOL)ascending withPredicate:(NSPredicate *)searchTerm inContext:(NSManagedObjectContext *)context;
根据谓词查询
+ (NSArray *) MR_findAllWithPredicate:(NSPredicate *)searchTerm;
根据谓词以及上下文操作句柄来查询
+ (NSArray *) MR_findAllWithPredicate:(NSPredicate *)searchTerm inContext:(NSManagedObjectContext *)context;
以下都是查询一个对象时的操作,与上面重复,不一一赘述
+ (instancetype) MR_findFirst;
+ (instancetype) MR_findFirstInContext:(NSManagedObjectContext *)context;
+ (instancetype) MR_findFirstWithPredicate:(NSPredicate *)searchTerm;
+ (instancetype) MR_findFirstWithPredicate:(NSPredicate *)searchTerm inContext:(NSManagedObjectContext *)context;
+ (instancetype) MR_findFirstWithPredicate:(NSPredicate *)searchterm sortedBy:(NSString *)property ascending:(BOOL)ascending;
+ (instancetype) MR_findFirstWithPredicate:(NSPredicate *)searchterm sortedBy:(NSString *)property ascending:(BOOL)ascending inContext:(NSManagedObjectContext *)context;
+ (instancetype) MR_findFirstWithPredicate:(NSPredicate *)searchTerm andRetrieveAttributes:(NSArray *)attributes;
+ (instancetype) MR_findFirstWithPredicate:(NSPredicate *)searchTerm andRetrieveAttributes:(NSArray *)attributes inContext:(NSManagedObjectContext *)context;
+ (instancetype) MR_findFirstWithPredicate:(NSPredicate *)searchTerm sortedBy:(NSString *)sortBy ascending:(BOOL)ascending andRetrieveAttributes:(id)attributes, ...;
+ (instancetype) MR_findFirstWithPredicate:(NSPredicate *)searchTerm sortedBy:(NSString *)sortBy ascending:(BOOL)ascending inContext:(NSManagedObjectContext *)context andRetrieveAttributes:(id)attributes, ...;
+ (instancetype) MR_findFirstByAttribute:(NSString *)attribute withValue:(id)searchValue;
+ (instancetype) MR_findFirstByAttribute:(NSString *)attribute withValue:(id)searchValue inContext:(NSManagedObjectContext *)context;
+ (instancetype) MR_findFirstOrderedByAttribute:(NSString *)attribute ascending:(BOOL)ascending;
+ (instancetype) MR_findFirstOrderedByAttribute:(NSString *)attribute ascending:(BOOL)ascending inContext:(NSManagedObjectContext *)context;
修改
NSArray *students = [Student MR_findByAttribute:@"name" withValue:@"Y.X."];
for (Student *tmp in students) {
tmp.name = @"Jane";
}
[[NSManagedObjectContext MR_defaultContext] MR_saveToPersistentStoreAndWait];
注意:既然要修改首先得需要找到记录,根据条件匹配找到记录,然后修改,然后保存
删除
NSArray *students = [Student MR_findByAttribute:@"name" withValue:@"Frank"];
for (Student *tmp in students) {
[tmp MR_deleteEntity];
}
[[NSManagedObjectContext MR_defaultContext] MR_saveToPersistentStoreAndWait];
注意:既然要删除首先得需要找到记录,根据条件匹配找到记录,然后删除,然后保存
心得体会
如果项目中对于操作数据库没有性能要求请使用 CoreData 相关的开源库吧.
CoreData 操作较为复杂, MagicalRecord 有着很多的特性,比如可以根据设置在主线程或者子线程中进行操作,方便快捷,能入榜最佳10大开源库自有其独到的地方,会使用 MagicalRecord 需要具备一定的 CoreData 相关知识,本人也只是现学现用,但深知其可以为开发带来的好处,使用数据库的朋友有着如下的一些选择.
1. SQLite3 C函数形式(本人之前做过干嵌入式开发,即使是这样也不推荐使用面向过程毫无对象概念的SQLite3,有更好的方式为什么不用呢?)
2. FMDB 对SQLite3的封装,有着对象的概念,熟悉SQ语句的朋友可以使用,但还没有做到对象与记录实时对应
3. CoreData 他做到了对象与记录实时对应关系,使用其自身的搜索体系(不用SQ语言),但其基本的操作以及配置让人望而却步
4. MagicalRecord 对 CoreData 官方的用法进行了人性化的封装,用过 CoreData 基本操作再使用 MagicalRecord 会深有体会
5. ObjectiveRecord 也是对 CoreData 的人性化封装,使用更加傻瓜,但傻瓜的代价就是牺牲了一些更强大的功能,在Github上搜索关键字即可
附录:
1.默认的就是在后台存储的,不会阻塞主线程
我在 CoreData+MagicalRecord.h 文件中定义了宏 MR_SHORTHAND ,所以在方法中不需要 MR_ 前缀了
以下为代码(提供block来通知存储成功,异步操作)
以下为打印信息

2.如何关闭 MagicalRecord 提供的打印信息?
修改 MagicalRecord.h 23 行处的值,把 0 改为 1 即可.
