“NSPersistentCloudKitContainer”

I am working on an interactive widget and merging changes provided by a user over it with the app. I store my data, using Core Data. However, I noticed an issue with sync between other user's devices after that person made a change over the widget (in my case, it is completing a task). Here is my schema: Main app: it looks for relevant transactions (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/coredata/consuming_relevant_store_changes). When it found that one, the app merges changes: if transaction.author == widget { if let userInfo = transaction.objectIDNotification().userInfo { NSManagedObjectContext.mergeChanges(fromRemoteContextSave: userInfo, into: [taskContext]) } } Widget: If the user clicks on the checkbox in order to complete a task, using an AppIntent class, app creates an identical NSPersistentCloudKitContainer and completes the task. However, in that case, the NSPersistentCloudKitContainer of the widget does not look for changes. That works correctly. However, only in a local enviro

Hi, I'm building a habit tracking app for iOS and macOS. I want to use up to date technologies, so I'm using SwiftUI and SwiftData. I want to store user data locally on device and also sync data between device and iCloud server so that the user could use the app conveniently on multiple devices (iPhone, iPad, Mac). I already tried SwiftData + NSPersistentCloudKitContainer, but I need to control when to sync data, which I can't control with NSPersistentCloudKitContainer. For example, I want to upload data to server right after data is saved locally and download data from server on every app open, on pull-to-refresh etc. I also need to monitor sync progress, so I can update the UI and run code based on the progress. For example, when downloading data from server to device is in progress, show Loading... UI, and when downloading finishes, I want to run some app business logic code and update UI. So I'm considering switching from NSPersistentCloudKitContainer to CKSyncEngine, because it

Hello, I'm running into an odd error. I'm trying to add a composite attribute called period to a Core Data Entity named Report, but I'm getting a compile-time error that points to my xcdatamodel file: Report.period cannot use an attribute type of Composite. In my model configuration I have Used with CloudKit box checked. If I uncheck this box, the error goes away and everything builds fine. But the documentation for NSCompositeAttributeDescription says: You may use composite attributes anywhere you use standard attributes, including lightweight migrations and CloudKit, through NSPersistentCloudKitContainer. So it seems like I should be able to use composite attributes in Core Data with CloudKit syncing enabled. What am I missing here? Is this a bug, or am I doing something wrong?

I can't seem to figure out how to get a one-to-many relationship working with a NSPersistentCloudKitContainer. Has anyone been able to do this successfully? I see the relationship that is one-to-one on the other end, but not the relationship which is supposed to be many to many.I've been trying to use the information here https://developer.apple.com/documentation/coredata/mirroring_a_core_data_store_with_cloudkit/creating_a_core_data_model_for_cloudkit#3191035and am unsure if this is a limitation of CloudKit and CoreData, if the data is there and just not showing in the dashboard or any other option.I've put my code here on Github https://github.com/jknlsn/testcloudkit and would love any help or thoughts. I would also be very keen to hear of any better ways to be debugging and visualising this data I am trying to write apart from the CloudKit dashboard, I don't know yet how to retrieve and display the data with SwiftUI.

I'm attempting to write to the public container of CloudKit, but I keep getting the error message: CKError 0x281ff9ec0: Network Unavailable (3/NSURLErrorDomain:-1009); The Internet connection appears to be offline. only when I'm accessing the container through the cellular network. When I try on a wifi network, however, it works perfectly fine and can confirm the presence of the uploaded data on the dashboard. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the cellular connectivity of my device. let publicCloudDatabase = CKContainer.default().publicCloudDatabase let operation = CKModifyRecordsOperation(recordsToSave: [exampleRecord], recordIDsToDelete: nil) let operationConfiguration = CKOperation.Configuration() operationConfiguration.allowsCellularAccess = true operationConfiguration.qualityOfService = .userInitiated operation.configuration = operationConfiguration operation.perRecordProgressBlock = {(record, progress) in ttprint(progress) } operation.perRecordCompletionBlock = {(record, error) in ttprint(Upload co

I'm encountering the error 'Operation could not be completed 'Foundation_GenericObjError error 0'' when loading my canvas on my SignupView. No errors are showing in my code, I've tried all sorts of fixes and nothing seems to work. Any help would be appreciated, if you need more code I will update post. SignupView @Environment(.managedObjectContext) private var viewContext @FetchRequest( sortDescriptors: [NSSortDescriptor(keyPath: Account.userSince, ascending: true)], animation: .default) private var savedAccounts: FetchedResults .onAppear(perform: userData) .fullScreenCover(isPresented:$showHomeView, content: { HomeView().environment(.managedObjectContext, viewContext) func userData() { Auth.auth().addStateDidChangeListener { auth, user in if let currentUser = user { if savedAccounts.count == 0 { // Add data to Core Data let userDataToSave = Account(context: viewContext) userDataToSave.name = currentUser.displayName userDataToSave.userID = currentUser.uid userDataToSave.numberOfCertificates = 0 userDataToSave

What interfaces do I use to propagate a CloudKit change in a shared zone to a notification/badge to all participants in the shared zone? Assume I have a 'League' that is the root object in a shared zone and that N Players are members of the league. One of the players, the 'organizer', schedules a 'Game' that is open to any of the players. When the organizer creates the game (in the league's shared zone) and it is mirrored in CloudKit, how can the other players see it (as a timely notification)? I already observe .NSPersistentStoreRemoteChange on NSPersistentStoreCoordinator and NSPersistentCloudKitContainer.eventChangedNotification on NSPersistentCloudKitContainer. Are these delivered in the background? Can/Should they generate a 'local/remote' notification for handling at the AppDelegate level? How? Do I need to use a CKDatabaseSubscription looking for CD_Game records directly? (I'd rather not; because then I'd have a potential race between the remote iCloud database(s) and the local CoreData)

My use case is the following: Every user of my app can create as an owner a set of items. These items are private until the owner invites other users to share all of them as participant. The participants can modify the shared items and/or add other items. So, sharing is not done related to individual items, but to all items of an owner. I want to use CoreData & CloudKit to have local copies of private and shared items. To my understanding, CoreData & CloudKit puts all mirrored items in a special zone „com.apple.coredata.cloudkit.zone“. So, this zone should be shared, i.e. all items in it. In the video it is said that NSPersistentCloudKitContainer uses Record Zone Sharing optionally in contrast to hierarchically record sharing using a root record. But how is this done? Maybe I can declare zone „com.apple.coredata.cloudkit.zone“ as a shared zone?

I have an iOS and iPadOS app that use iCloud to sync. They are in the App Store and the database was pushed to production. They work as advertised. I wrote also a macOS app that uses Cloudkit, the container it set as NSPersistentCloudKitContainer and the merge policies are set ok. I also checked that the profile for the app and certificates are good to go, as well as the permissions of the app. Apple signed the app, but, it doesn't sync with iCloud and I can't figure out why. I checked iCloud on my Mac and the app is there, set to be syncing. I have already read a few articles and have tried all the possible solutions, including signing out and back in, rebuilding the app, etc. One thing, thought, when I delete an item, the app takes sometime to react to it, as if it's trying to connect. I tried with TCPDump, and other things to check for connection issues, but I can't find that app trying to connect. I took a few screenshots of the different configs, etc so you can see as well, but has anyone run in

I've set up a Core Data mirroring to CloudKit using NSPersistentCloudKitContainer. My simplified data structure consists of List and Item. List have one-to-many relationship items with many Items, Item has parentList property. When I am getting CKRecord associated with List NSManagedObject and sharing it, I expect all child Items to be shared too. I know, I can set parentRecord property for each CKRecord associated with the List childRecord.setParent(parentRecord) But I believe there is some smart way to avoid doing that manually, because everything is mirroring automatically and it looks not nice to start handling each single property manually to only set parentRecord. Is there any way to do that for NSManagedObjects? Because my custom relationship does not mean for CloudKit that the List is parent for the Item.

I'm using NSPersistentCloudKitContainer and I'm getting warnings in the console saying: CoreData: CloudKit: CoreData+CloudKit: -[NSCloudKitMirroringDelegate _scheduleAutomatedExportWithLabel:activity:completionHandler:]_block_invoke(3457): - Finished automatic export - AppActivationExport - with result: storeIdentifier: F2C60E7A-CEC4-44F2-B467-7324C065AD33 success: 0 madeChanges: 0 error: Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=134406 Request '1FA53D40-43FB-4751-8719-0D26393D5301' was aborted because the mirroring delegate never successfully initialized due to error: UserInfo={NSLocalizedFailureReason=Request '1FA53D40-43FB-4751-8719-0D26393D5301' was aborted because the mirroring delegate never successfully initialized due to error: } I have added indexes for recordName and modifiedTimestamp to all my records as queryable as per the instructions.

I have a SwiftUI app where I would like to enable NSPersistentCloudKitContainer to start using CloudKit and be able to sync the content of the app between multiple devices, but I'm not sure how to handle the user experience. Should this be a feature that the user turns On and Off in the app settings screen or does the user expects the syncing mechanism to work by default without having to do anything, can someone please share your experience on how you implemented CloudKit/Sync in your app. Do I need to offer a login mechanism so the user logs in? Should I include an On/Off option so the user decides if they want the sync option or not? In general, can someone be so kind and explain what the user experience should be when an app provides ClouldKit/sync? FYI - I'm not asking how to implement CloudKit sync I already know what it is and how it works. I just need to know what the expedition is from an app the provides that feature. Thanks!

I am trying to save to Core Data so when the App is reopened the data will be there. I have a single ViewController, within that VC I have 10 Text Fields which the user inputs their data (numbers). I have a function where I add all the data for the 7 days (sun - sat) and it shows the total value. I have most in place (xcdatamodeld)... Is it possible to have CoreData fill text fields? Is there a good tutorial on completing core data? Most I have read and watched all use table views for the example.What I want to do is have the same data show up after closing and re-opening the App. // MARK: - Core Data stack lazy var persistentContainer: NSPersistentCloudKitContainer = { let container = NSPersistentCloudKitContainer(name: Numbers) container.loadPersistentStores(completionHandler: { (storeDescription, error) in if let error = error as NSError? { // Replace this implementation with code to handle the error appropriately. // fatalError() causes the application to generate a crash log and termina

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?
