我使用Core Data在本地持久化Web服务调用的结果。web服务返回完整的对象模型,比如说,“Cars”——可能有2000辆车(我不能让web服务返回小于1辆或ALL辆的任何东西。

下次打开应用程序时,我希望通过再次调用所有汽车的Web服务来刷新Core Data持久化副本,但是为了防止重复,我需要首先清除本地缓存中的所有数据。

是否有一种更快的方法来清除管理对象上下文中特定实体的所有实例(例如,类型为“CAR”的所有实体),或者我需要查询它们调用,然后遍历结果删除每个,然后保存?

理想情况下,我可以说删除实体所在的所有地方等等。

iOS 9及以上版本:

iOS 9添加了一个名为NSBatchDeleteRequest的新类,允许您轻松删除匹配谓词的对象,而无需将它们全部加载到内存中。下面是你如何使用它:

斯威夫特5

let fetchRequest: NSFetchRequest<NSFetchRequestResult> = NSFetchRequest(entityName: "Car")
let deleteRequest = NSBatchDeleteRequest(fetchRequest: fetchRequest)

do {
    try myPersistentStoreCoordinator.execute(deleteRequest, with: myContext)
} catch let error as NSError {
    // TODO: handle the error
}

objective - c

NSFetchRequest *request = [[NSFetchRequest alloc] initWithEntityName:@"Car"];
NSBatchDeleteRequest *delete = [[NSBatchDeleteRequest alloc] initWithFetchRequest:request];

NSError *deleteError = nil;
[myPersistentStoreCoordinator executeRequest:delete withContext:myContext error:&deleteError];

关于批量删除的更多信息可以在WWDC 2015的“Core Data新内容”会议中找到(开始时间约为14:10)。

iOS 8及更早版本:

获取并删除它们:

NSFetchRequest *allCars = [[NSFetchRequest alloc] init];
[allCars setEntity:[NSEntityDescription entityForName:@"Car" inManagedObjectContext:myContext]];
[allCars setIncludesPropertyValues:NO]; //only fetch the managedObjectID

NSError *error = nil;
NSArray *cars = [myContext executeFetchRequest:allCars error:&error];
[allCars release];
//error handling goes here
for (NSManagedObject *car in cars) {
  [myContext deleteObject:car];
}
NSError *saveError = nil;
[myContext save:&saveError];
//more error handling here

在Swift 3中重置实体:

func resetAllRecords(in entity : String) // entity = Your_Entity_Name
    {

        let context = ( UIApplication.shared.delegate as! AppDelegate ).persistentContainer.viewContext
        let deleteFetch = NSFetchRequest<NSFetchRequestResult>(entityName: entity)
        let deleteRequest = NSBatchDeleteRequest(fetchRequest: deleteFetch)
        do
        {
            try context.execute(deleteRequest)
            try context.save()
        }
        catch
        {
            print ("There was an error")
        }
    }

为什么不将接收到的数据与现有缓存一起折叠呢?否则它就不是真正的“刷新”,而是“重新开始”,你也可以删除SQLLite文件并重新开始(假设你没有持久化其他数据)。

更干净和通用一点:添加这个方法:

- (void)deleteAllEntities:(NSString *)nameEntity
{
    NSFetchRequest *fetchRequest = [[NSFetchRequest alloc] initWithEntityName:nameEntity];
    [fetchRequest setIncludesPropertyValues:NO]; //only fetch the managedObjectID

    NSError *error;
    NSArray *fetchedObjects = [theContext executeFetchRequest:fetchRequest error:&error];
    for (NSManagedObject *object in fetchedObjects)
    {
        [theContext deleteObject:object];
    }

    error = nil;
    [theContext save:&error];
}

当最小iOS为9.0时,使用NSBatchDeleteRequest删除多条记录。如果是后台线程,执行NSManagedObjectContext save,否则使用NSFetchRequest获取记录并删除for循环中的所有记录,删除完成后保存。

在Swift 3.0中

 func deleteAllRecords() {
        //delete all data
        let context = appDelegate.persistentContainer.viewContext

        let deleteFetch = NSFetchRequest<NSFetchRequestResult>(entityName: "YourClassName")
        let deleteRequest = NSBatchDeleteRequest(fetchRequest: deleteFetch)

        do {
            try context.execute(deleteRequest)
            try context.save()
        } catch {
            print ("There was an error")
        }
    }
