NSPersistentCloudKitContainer

Hello,I'm working on refactoring an existing app to use the new NSPersistentCloudKitContainer.Our app is managing different Projects items which consist of a mix of structured data and files.Files are stored locally and only their path are stored in one core data store at the moment.Enabling NSPersistentCloudKitContainer did the job as now the db syncs between devices as expected.As we would like to segregate each project into its own CoreData store, my question is: Is it possible to leverage NSPersistentCloudKitContainer to sync multiple core data stores within the same app and have all of those stores synced?Can you point me to any documentation that demonstrate this use case?Thanks for the feedback.Best regardsSantiago

I've got a few quetsions about designing an acceptable user experience involving migrating from legacy Core Data store to a CloudKit+CoreData store.Given the user can have a legacy data store on all of their devices and only one of those sets of data will be considered supreme, I need a means to effectively merge all this data in a non-destructive way.1) Does NSPersistentCloudKitContainer provide a means of opting into or out of CLoudKit storage for the user? Is it fully reliant on the user going into settings and flipping the iCloud-Data switch? Or can I maintain a local app settings flag? Can I tell a NSPersistentCloudKitContainer to no longer sync during it's lifecycle? 2)

The Apple Demo, which is very thorough, doesn't prune persistent history?And the Forum Thread seems to suggest that persistent history is integral to how NSPersistentCloudKitContainer works.Are we supposed to explicitly prune persistent history ourselves or is it handled for us by NSPersistentCloudKitContainer?Apple Demo: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/coredata/synchronizing_a_local_store_to_the_cloudForum Thread: https://forums.developer.apple.com/message/373336#373336

I'm trying to call CKFetchRecordZoneChangesOperation to get the latest changes from the shared database.But when I run that operation from inside didFinishLaunchingWithOptions, NSPersistentCloudKitContainer will break. It will save to coredata, but it will no longer sync to Cloudkit. It's as if it's paused. When I restart the app, the sync resumes.But if I call CKFetchRecordZoneChangesOperation later in the app lifecycle, say in viewDidLoad, everything works fine. Why is this?

Hello,I have an issue in an app which is yet unreleased.The app uses Core Data, and I recently added CloudKit integration.Whenever I start the app data get automatically downloaded by CloudKit and I get this log: <NSCloudKitMirroringDelegate: 0x600001da61b0> - Never successfully initialized and cannot execute request '<NSCloudKitMirroringImportRequest: 0x6000024c88a0> D3FB21AB-94ED-40B7-859B-6CBEE6149473' due to error: Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=134404 (null) UserInfo={NSDetailedErrors=( Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=133021 (null) UserInfo={NSExceptionOmitCallstacks=true, conflictList=(n NSConstraintConflict (0x600003f40e00) for constraint (n namen): database: 0x8143748c0004e8e1 <x-coredata://272191BB-7D10-41DD-8E4B-56F4ECE4AB9F/Ingredient/p195>, conflictedObjects: (n 0x8143748c181ce8e1 <x-coredata://272191BB-7D10-41DD-8E4B-56F4ECE4AB9F/Ingredient/p1733>n),n NSConstraintConflict (0x600003f42fc0) for constraint (n namen): database: 0x8143748c029ce8e1 <x-coredata://27

I have a model that has already been pushed to production, and I would like to move an attribute to a new entity as a relationship.From This:extension Note { @NSManaged public var drawingData: Data? .... }To This: extension Note { @NSManaged public var drawing: Drawing? .... } extension Drawing { @NSManaged public var drawingData: Data? .... }According to the Apple Docs under the Update your Production Schema section, I will need to migrate to a new CloudKit Container, since we can't delete attributes on production CKRecords.What is the proper workflow to do this?I have come up with the following, but I believe it is wrong.lazy var oldPersistentContainer: NSPersistentCloudKitContainer = { let container = NSPersistentCloudKitContainer(name: Model) let storeLocation = URL(fileURLWithPath: /path/to/cloud.store) let storeDescription = NSPersistentStoreDescription(url: storeLocation) // Set the container options on the cloud store cloudStoreDescription.cloudKitContainerOptions = NSPersistentCloud

Let's suppose I want to provide a new user with some sample data which they can use to familiarize themselves with my app. In the NSPersistentContainer (i.e., local-only) case, I use one-time initialization logic to manually populate my app with this sample data. Then, over time, the user can keep that data, modify it, or delete it, as they choose.Now if I want to do the same thing with NSPersistentCloudKitContainer, this should be fine with my user's first device. But let's further suppose that (after using my app [and changing the CoreData database contents), my user load my app on a second device and runs it. On the second device, it will ALSO build an initial database containing sample data.What happens now? Does the content of the second device superceed the contents of the first? Suppose the user deleted a same record on device 1, but that sample record is loaded onto device 2 (as part of it's one-time initialization). Does that record reappear on device 1? And if a sample record is modified on

For the past two days I've been trying to figure out how to get the notification when the iCloud data has changed. I use a NSPersistentCloudKitContainer and am able to see my changes from one device in another. I just added local notifications to my app and I save the notification to an iCloud entity whenever a user sets it.Since I'm adding this notification in iCloud, a remote notification with iCloud changes will be sent to the users devices with iCloud enabled. What I would like to do is when the device gets this notification, read from the new data and set a local notification on the current device if a notification entity is found.But I can not seem to figure out how to intercept this change notification. I tried using didReceive and didReceiveRemoteNotification from the AppDelegate, but none of these functions fired when the device received the iCloud changes. In the Xcode console I can see that the device is notified with the data.How can I intercept the background notification that contains t

I am using NSPersistentCloudKitContainer. All data sync in iCloud. And when uninstalled the app, its sync correctly. However, it's required to encrypt sensitive data. I made my password attribute Transformable. Thus work fine locally. However when I delete the app. Install again. All other attributes(String, Int) sync correctly but transformable attribute does not export/synced.Here is my Modelhttps://i.stack.imgur.com/emA4m.pngpublic class EmployeeEntity: NSManagedObject { @NSManaged public var password: NSObject? @NSManaged public var firstName: String? @NSManaged public var lastName: String? @NSManaged public var idNumber: String? @NSManaged public var modifiedDate: Date? @NSManaged public var password: String? @NSManaged public var title: String? static var entityName: String { return EmployeeEntity }}extension EmployeeEntity { static func getListItemFetchRequest() -> NSFetchRequest<EmployeeEntity>{ let request = EmployeeEntity.fetchRequest() as!
