ObjectBox Swift

ObjectBox is a superfast, light-weight object persistence framework.
This Swift API seamlessly persists objects on-device for iOS and macOS.

let santa = Person(firstName: "Santa", lastName: "Claus")
try personBox.put(santa)

let query: Query<Person> = personBox.query {
    return (Person.firstName.contains("Santa") || Person.age > 100)
           && Person.lastName.isEqual(to: "Claus") 
}
let oldClauses = query.find()

Note: This beta version is subject to change (details below).

Installation

ObjectBox is available through CocoaPods.
To install the pod, simply add the following line to your Podfile:

pod 'ObjectBox'

Then run

cd /path/to/your/project/folder/ # whatever folder your Podfile is in.
pod install
Pods/ObjectBox/setup.rb myproject.xcodeproj # whatever your Xcode project is named

afterwards to install the framework and its dependencies, and set up the code generator in your project.

If pod install fails, try updating CocoaPods first:

gem update xcodeproj && gem update cocoapods && pod repo update

Example

In the Example directory, you find a notes example app demonstrating ObjectBox’s Swift API.
The example comes with two apps: one for iOS and one for macOS.

To setup the example, use CocoaPods to acquire the framework:

cd Example/
pod install # if that fails, update CocoaPods (see Installation)
Pods/ObjectBox/setup.rb

This will generate a NotesExample.xcworkspace that you can launch to try out ObjectBox.

How can ObjectBox Help You?

Background: Code generation

ObjectBox Swift generates code at build time for optimal performance at runtime by avoiding reflection etc.
This is automatically done for you and should be transparent. Internally, we use Sourcery for this.

Other languages/bindings

ObjectBox is a multi platform database supporting multiple languages:

ObjectBox C API: native speed with zero copy access to FlatBuffer objects;
also enables porting ObjectBox to other languages.
ObjectBox Java: runs on Android, desktop and even servers.
