Highlights

Example:

final class WeatherService {

  private enum Keys: Namespace {
    static let id = "weather-service"
    static let temperature = Key<Keys, Double>(id: "temp", defaultValue: 0.0)
  }

  private let store: UserDefaultsStore
  
  var temperature: Double {
    return store.get(Keys.temperature)
  }

  init(store: UserDefaultsStore) {
    self.store = store
  }

  func weatherUpdate(temperature: Double) {
    store.set(Keys.temperature, temperature)
  }
}

Features

Available Stores

StoreBackendSubspec
UserDefaultsStoreNSUserDefaultsStorez/UserDefaults
CacheStoreNSCacheStorez/Cache

For all stores, simply use pod "Storez"

Type-safe, store-agnostic, nestable Key definitions

// Entries must belong to a "group", for namespacing
struct Animals: Namespace {
    static let id = "animals"
}

let kingdom = Key<Animals, Void?>(id: "mammals", defaultValue: nil)
kingdom.stringValue // "animals:mammals"

// Nesting
struct Cats: Namespace {
    typealias parent = Animals
    static let id = "cats"

    // Namespaces also have pre and post commit hooks
    func preCommitHook() { /* custom code */ }
    func postCommitHook() { /* custom code */ }
}

let cat = Key<Cats, Void?>(id: "lion", defaultValue: nil)
cat.stringValue // "animals:cats:lion"

Initialize the store you want

// Use UserDefaultsStore for this example
let store = UserDefaultsStore(suite: "io.kitz.testing")
let key = Key<GlobalNamespace, Int?>(id: "key", defaultValue: nil)

// With three simple functions
store.set(key, value: 8)
store.get(key) // 8
store.clear() // Start fresh every time for testing

Optionality is honored throughout

let nullable = Key<GlobalNamespace, String?>(id: "nullable", defaultValue: nil)
store.get(nullable)?.isEmpty   // nil
store.set(nullable, value: "")
store.get(nullable)?.isEmpty   // true

let nonnull = Key<GlobalNamespace, String>(id: "nonnull", defaultValue: "!")
store.get(nonnull).isEmpty  // false
store.set(nonnull, value: "")
store.get(nonnull).isEmpty  // true

Custom objects easily supported

NEW Simply conform to Codable!

(You can still use UserDefaultsConvirtable if needed)

struct CustomObject: Codable {
    var strings: [String]
}

// custom objects properly serialized/deserialized
let customObject = CustomObject(
    strings: ["fill", "in", "the"]
)

// let's add a processing block this time
let CustomValue = Key<GlobalNamespace, CustomObject?>(id: "custom", defaultValue: nil) {

    var processedValue = $0
    processedValue?.strings.append("blank!")
    return processedValue
}

store.set(CustomValue, value: customObject)
store.get(CustomValue)?.strings.joinWithSeparator(" ") // fill in the blank!

Make your own KeyType

// For example, make an key that emits NSNotifications
struct MyKey<G: Namespace, V>: KeyType {

    typealias NamespaceType = G
    typealias ValueType = V

    var stringValue: String
    var defaultValue: ValueType

    func didChange(oldValue: ValueType, newValue: ValueType) {
        NSNotificationCenter.defaultCenter().postNotificationName(stringValue, object: nil)
    }
}

Getting Started

Swift Package Manager

You can add Storez to an Xcode project by adding it as a package dependency.

Depending on how your project is structured:

To use Storez in a Package.swift file, add this to the dependencies: section.

.package(url: "https://github.com/SwiftKitz/Storez.git", .upToNextMinor(from: "3.0.0")),

CocoaPods

CocoaPods is fully supported. You can choose which store you want to use (see above). Simply add the following line to your Podfile:

pod 'Storez/UserDefaults'

Motivation

I've seen a lot of great attempts at statically-types data stores, but they all build a tightly coupled design that limits the end-developer's freedom. With this framework, you can start prototyping right away with the shipped features, then replace the persistence store and KeyType functionality with your heart's content and keep your code the way it is!
