AppIntents

Overview

• I have a custom type Statistics that has 3 properties inside it
• I am trying to return this as part of the AppIntent's perforrm method

struct Statistics {
    var countA: Int
    var countB: Int
    var countC: Int
}

I would like to implement the AppIntent to return Statistics as follows:

func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult & ReturnsValue<Statistics> {
...
...
}

Problem

• It doesn't make much sense to make Statistics as an AppEntity as this is only computed as a result.
• Statistics doesn't exist as a persisted entity in the app.

Questions

1. How can I implement Statistics?
2. Does it have to be AppEntity (I am trying to avoid this)? (defaultQuery would never be used.)
3. What is the correct way tackle this?
