ios - RestKit 与主键的关系映射

Question

当 JSON 响应仅包含主键而不包含用于创建新对象的完全嵌套数组时，我在映射关系时遇到了问题。

我有 2 个类 - Shop 和 Item，正如您所期望的那样，Shop->Item 具有一对多关系。

我有一个商店(和商品)的本地核心数据存储，每个商店都有一个主键。然后我希望下载一个项目列表作为 JSON 并映射到核心数据实体，但只包括商店的主键，而不是所有商店详细信息作为嵌套数组 - 这将是网络流量的巨大浪费，因为我正在下载 500 多个项目的详细信息。

这是来自两个请求的 JSON:

/shops

{
    "id" : 1,
    "shop" : "Shop A",
    "city" : "New York"
},
{
    "id" : 2,
    "shop" : "Shop B",
    "city" : "London"
},
...

/items

{
    "id" : 1,
    "name" : "Shoes",
    "manufacturer" : "Vans",
    "shopId" : 1
},
{
    "id" : 2,
    "name" : "T-shirt",
    "manufacturer" : "Animal",
    "shopId" : 2
},
{
    "id" : 3,
    "name" : "Scarf",
    "manufacturer" : "Ted Baker",
    "shopId" : 1
},
{
    "id" : 4,
    "name" : "Sunglasses",
    "manufacturer" : "Ray-Ban",
    "shopId" : 3
},
...

这是我目前的代码。

                                                       inManagedObjectStore:objectManager.managedObjectStore];

shopMapping.identificationAttributes = @[@"objectId"];
[shopMapping addAttributeMappingsFromDictionary:shopMappingAttributes];

                                                                             pathPattern:@"/shops"
                                                                                 keyPath:nil
                                                                             statusCodes:RKStatusCodeIndexSetForClass(RKStatusCodeClassSuccessful)]];

                                                       inManagedObjectStore:objectManager.managedObjectStore];
NSDictionary *itemMappingAttributes = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:@"objectId",@"id",@"name", @"name",@"manufacturer",@"manufacturer",nil];

[itemMapping addAttributeMappingsFromDictionary:itemMappingAttributes];

// Define the relationship mapping

[objectManager addResponseDescriptor:[RKResponseDescriptor responseDescriptorWithMapping:itemMapping
                                                                             pathPattern:@"/items"
                                                                                 keyPath:nil
                                                                             statusCodes:RKStatusCodeIndexSetForClass(RKStatusCodeClassSuccessful)]];

    [super viewDidLoad];

    // Update Shops

                                       parameters:nil

                                                                             path:@"/items"
                                                                       parameters:parameters];

    RKManagedObjectRequestOperation *operation = [[RKObjectManager sharedManager] managedObjectRequestOperationWithRequest:request managedObjectContext:[RKManagedObjectStore defaultStore].mainQueueManagedObjectContext
                                                                  success:^(RKObjectRequestOperation *operation, RKMappingResult *mappingResult) {
                                                                      Item *item = [mappingResult firstObject];
                                                                      NSLog(@"Mapped the Item: %@", item);
                                                                  } failure:^(RKObjectRequestOperation *operation, NSError *error) {
                                                                      NSLog(@"Error: %@",error);
                                                                  }];
    NSOperationQueue *operationQueue = [NSOperationQueue new];
    [operationQueue addOperation:operation];
}

编辑:Wain，我在应用程序委托(delegate)的相关位置有这个但是得到了一个 NSException

NSEntityDescription *itemEntity = [NSEntityDescription entityForName:@"Item" inManagedObjectContext:managedObjectStore.mainQueueManagedObjectContext];
NSRelationshipDescription *shopRelationship = [itemEntity relationshipsByName][@"shop"];
RKConnectionDescription *connection = [[RKConnectionDescription alloc] initWithRelationship:shopRelationship attributes:@{ @"shopId": @"objectId" }];
[itemMapping addConnection:connection];

NS异常

*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '+entityForName: nil is not a legal NSManagedObjectContext parameter searching for entity name 'Item''

我错过了什么？

您需要向项目添加一个 transient 属性(称为 shopId)和关联的映射。

使用外键映射将关系配置为:

NSEntityDescription *itemEntity = [NSEntityDescription entityForName:@"Item" inManagedObjectContext:managedObjectContext];
NSRelationshipDescription *shopRelationship = [itemEntity relationshipsByName][@"shop"];
RKConnectionDescription *connection = [[RKConnectionDescription alloc] initWithRelationship:shopRelationship attributes:@{ @"shopId": @"id" }];

然后使用 addConnection: 将其添加到您的映射中。
