How to update existing object in core data ? [Swift]

Question

I have preloaded data from a .csv file into coredata. I am fetching the data in the following way

var places:[Places] = []

in viewDi

Answer 1

This is simple as this:

• Find the entry you want to modify in places then save the core data context.

  func saveContext () {
      if let moc = self.managedObjectContext {
          var error: NSError? = nil
          if moc.hasChanges && !moc.save(&error) {
              // Replace this implementation with code to handle the error appropriately.
              // abort() causes the application to generate a crash log and terminate. You should not use this function in a shipping application, although it may be useful during development.
              println("Unresolved error \(error), \(error!.userInfo)")
              abort()
          }
      }
  }
  

I suggest you used a manager to insert, fetch and delete entry in your core data.

import Foundation
import CoreData

class CoreDataHelper: NSObject {

    class var shareInstance:CoreDataHelper {
        struct Static {
            static let instance:CoreDataHelper = CoreDataHelper()
        }
        return Static.instance
    }

    //MARK: - Insert -
    func insertEntityForName(entityName:String) -> AnyObject {
        return NSEntityDescription.insertNewObjectForEntityForName(entityName, inManagedObjectContext: self.managedObjectContext!)
    }

    //MARK: - Fetch -
    func fetchEntitiesForName(entityName:String) -> NSArray {
        ...
    }

    //MARK: - Delete -
    func deleteObject(object:NSManagedObject) {
        self.managedObjectContext!.deleteObject(object)
    }

    // MARK: - Core Data Saving support -
    func saveContext () {
        if let moc = self.managedObjectContext {
            var error: NSError? = nil
            if moc.hasChanges && !moc.save(&error) {
                // Replace this implementation with code to handle the error appropriately.
                // abort() causes the application to generate a crash log and terminate. You should not use this function in a shipping application, although it may be useful during development.
                println("Unresolved error \(error), \(error!.userInfo)")
                abort()
            }
        }
    }

Hop this can help you
