NSPersistentCloudKitContainer

For a bit of context, I store binary files of about 50KB in my Core Data. I noticed that enabling the Allows External Storage option doesn't seem to make any difference. Additionally, how does this setting work with CloudKit when using NSPersistentCloudKitContainer? Does this setting affect how the data is loaded into memory when accessed in Core Data in the app? Thank you very much!

sample code let modelConfiguration = ModelConfiguration() // 1. create mom guard let mom = NSManagedObjectModel.makeManagedObjectModel(for: [Attachment.self]) else { fatalError(====> makeManagedObjectModel error) } // 2. create description with config url and setting let description = NSPersistentStoreDescription(url: modelConfiguration.url); description.shouldAddStoreAsynchronously = false; container = NSPersistentCloudKitContainer(name: swiftDataCloudTest, managedObjectModel: mom); container.persistentStoreDescriptions = [description] // 3. get modelContainer let modelContainer = try! ModelContainer(for: Attachment.self, configurations: self.modelConfiguration) this code works fine on MacOS(14.4.1) and previous iOS 17.x.（iOS 17.2 is OK） but on iOS 17.5, the app crashes with message A Core Data error occurred. UserInfo={NSLocalizedFailureReason=Unable to find a configuration named 'default' in the specified managed object model how can I fix these?

Hi, does someone knows about the bug, that the NSPersistentCloudKitContainer doesn't return CKShares at the first time? Is this an intended behavior? My current fix: let container: NSPersistentCloudKitContainer = .... // Fix begin let managedObject = .... // Object which is in a share let record = container.record(for: managedObject.objectID) // Fix end let shares = (try? container.fetchShares(in: nil)) ?? [] If I execute exactly the same code without the fix that I fetch the record first, then it returns 0 shares. With the fix it is currently 9 shares (the actual count of the shares). Another fix: let container: NSPersistentCloudKitContainer = .... // Fix begin let _ = try? container.fetchShares(in: nil) Thread.sleep(forTimeInterval: 0.1) // Fix end let shares = (try? container.fetchShares(in: nil)) ?? [] For that fix it also returns at the second time the expected count of shares. But without the delay it returns also at the second time zero shares. Anyone had the same problem and

It's 2024, and it still seems like the only sure way to cleanly restart cloud sync on an app using NSPersistentCloudKitContainer is to uninstall and reinstall the app. No need to describe how bad that solution is... Am I missing something? Is there a better way to safely trigger such a restart of the sync (even if it means losing unsaved data and overwriting with what's in the cloud - which is what a reinstall does anyway)?

Recently, I have made quite extensive changes to my schema and need to migrate my CoreData + CloudKit model to a new version. The changes require me to use a custom NSEntityMigrationPolicy because I have a rather complex mapping between some old entities and new entities. I have added a new model version. Deleted some entities, and added some entities. I have defined the NSEntityMigrationPolicy with createDestinationInstances(forSource:in:manager:) and createRelationships(forDestination:in:manager:). I have created a new Core Data Mapping Model. This was probably unnecessary. Within the Core Data Mapping Model, I have specified Custom Policy for all entities. In my container setup, I added two options, as below: storeDescription.setOption(false as NSNumber, forKey: NSMigratePersistentStoresAutomaticallyOption) storeDescription.setOption(false as NSNumber, forKey: NSInferMappingModelAutomaticallyOption) I mostly followed a Core Data Heavyweight Migration guide. I'm unable to share the link, but it can be quite

I am following this document from Apple to implement sharing with CloudKit. In it, Apple says NSPersistentCloudKitContainer uses CloudKit zone sharing to share objects. Each share has its own record zone on the CloudKit server. CloudKit has a limit on how many record zones a database can have. What is the record zone limit for a private CloudKit database? I can find information about record and participant limits but not on record zone limits.

The Statement I have a SwiftUI app that uses CoreData and iCloud with NSPersistentCloudKitContainer prepared for beta testing via TestFlight. The app utilizes iCloud solely as a private database for user data across different devices. The app doesn't use any public or shared database. According to Apple's guidelines, deploying the development schema to production is necessary before submitting to the App Store: Before you publish your app, you must deploy the development schema to the production environment to copy over its record types, fields, and indexes. I am aware that once deployed to production, it's impossible to delete or modify any types or fields: To prevent conflicts, you can’t delete record types or fields that are already in production. Every time you deploy the development schema, its additive changes merge into the production schema. The Questions: When is the appropriate time to deploy the schema to production? Should it be done before beta testing via TestFlight, or is it sufficient
