Monaka
Overview
Monaka convert custom struct and fundamental values to NSData (also nested array and dictionary).
Purpose
You can persistent store of your defined struct. Your defined struct is for example 'latest selected tab index', 'array of struct fetched from API' or 'current application state'. I think these should be represented as simple struct and can be stored in application. Converted data can be written in file or NSUserDefault.
Installation
Carthage
github "naru-jpn/Monaka"
CocoaPods
pod 'Monaka'
Usage
For Standard Variables
Packable
variable ⇄ NSData.
// Pack
let value: Int = 10
let data: NSData = Monaka.pack(value)
// Unpack
let unpacked = Monaka.unpack(data) as? Int
For Custom Struct
CustomPackable
1.Make a custom struct confirming protocol struct Sample: CustomPackable {
let id: String
// Return new struct from applied properties.
static var restoreProcedure: ([String : Packable] -> Packable?) = { (properties: [String : Packable]) -> Packable? in
guard let id = properties["id"] as? String else {
return nil
}
return Sample(id: id)
}
}
2.Activate your custom struct.
func application(application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [NSObject: AnyObject]?) -> Bool {
Monaka.activate(Sample)
// Other codes...
return true
}
3.Pack/Unpack
You can Pack/Unpack as standard types.
// Pack
let value: SampleStruct = SampleStruct(id: NSUUID().UUIDString)
let data: NSData = Monaka.pack(value)
// Unpack
let unpacked = Monaka.unpack(data) as? SampleStruct
