Swift 3 Core Data Delete Object
IosSwiftCore DataSwift3Ios Problem Overview
Unfortunately the new Core Data semantics make me crazy. My previous question had a clean code that didn't work because of incorrect auto generation of header files. Now I continue my work with deleting objects. My code seems to be very simple:
func deleteProfile(withID: Int) {
let fetchRequest: NSFetchRequest<Profile> = Profile.fetchRequest()
fetchRequest.predicate = Predicate.init(format: "profileID==\(withID)")
let object = try! context.fetch(fetchRequest)
context.delete(object)
}
I did a "hard" debug with print(object)
instead of context.delete(object)
and it showed me the right object.
So I need just to delete it.
P.S. there is no deleteObject
. Now NSManagedContext has only public func delete(_ sender: AnyObject?)

The result of a fetch is an array of managed objects, in your case
[Event]
, so you can enumerate the array and delete all matching objects.
Example (using try?
instead of try!
to avoid a crash in the case
of a fetch error):
if let result = try? context.fetch(fetchRequest) {
for object in result {
context.delete(object)
}
}
do {
try context.save()
} catch {
//Handle error
}
If no matching objects exist then the fetch succeeds, but the resulting array is empty.
Note: In your code, object
has the type [Event]
and therefore in
context.delete(object)
the compiler creates a call to the
public func delete(_ sender: AnyObject?)
method of NSObject
instead of the expected
public func delete(_ object: NSManagedObject)
method of NSManagedObjectContext
. That is why your code compiles
but fails at runtime.

The trick here, it is save context after deleting your objects.
let fetchRequest: NSFetchRequest<Profile> = Profile.fetchRequest()
fetchRequest.predicate = Predicate.init(format: "profileID==\(withID)")
let objects = try! context.fetch(fetchRequest)
for obj in objects {
context.delete(obj)
}
do {
try context.save() // <- remember to put this :)
} catch {
// Do something... fatalerror
}
I hope this can help someone.
Solution 3 - Ios
func deleteRecords() {
let delegate = UIApplication.shared.delegate as! AppDelegate
let context = delegate.persistentContainer.viewContext
let deleteFetch = NSFetchRequest<NSFetchRequestResult>(entityName: "nameofentity")
let deleteRequest = NSBatchDeleteRequest(fetchRequest: deleteFetch)
do {
try context.execute(deleteRequest)
try context.save()
} catch {
print ("There was an error")
}
}

Delete core data objects swift 3
// MARK: Delete Data Records
func deleteRecords() -> Void {
let moc = getContext()
let fetchRequest = NSFetchRequest<NSFetchRequestResult>(entityName: "Person")
let result = try? moc.fetch(fetchRequest)
let resultData = result as! [Person]
for object in resultData {
moc.delete(object)
}
do {
try moc.save()
print("saved!")
} catch let error as NSError {
print("Could not save \(error), \(error.userInfo)")
} catch {
}
}
// MARK: Get Context
func getContext () -> NSManagedObjectContext {
let appDelegate = UIApplication.shared.delegate as! AppDelegate
return appDelegate.persistentContainer.viewContext
}
Solution 5 - Ios
Swift 4.1, 4.2 and 5.0
let appDelegate = UIApplication.shared.delegate as! AppDelegate
let context = appDelegate.persistentContainer.viewContext
let requestDel = NSFetchRequest<NSFetchRequestResult>(entityName: "Users")
requestDel.returnsObjectsAsFaults = false
// If you want to delete data on basis of some condition then you can use NSPredicate
// let predicateDel = NSPredicate(format: "age > %d", argumentArray: [10])
// requestDel.predicate = predicateDel
do {
let arrUsrObj = try context.fetch(requestDel)
for usrObj in arrUsrObj as! [NSManagedObject] { // Fetching Object
context.delete(usrObj) // Deleting Object
}
} catch {
print("Failed")
}
// Saving the Delete operation
do {
try context.save()
} catch {
print("Failed saving")
}

Swift 4 without using string for Entity
let fetchRequest: NSFetchRequest<Profile> = Profile.fetchRequest()
fetchRequest.predicate = Predicate.init(format: "profileID==\(withID)")
do {
let objects = try context.fetch(fetchRequest)
for object in objects {
context.delete(object)
}
try context.save()
} catch _ {
// error handling
}

Delete Core Data Object with query in Swift 5, 4.2
let fetchRequest = NSFetchRequest<Your_Model>(entityName: "Your_Entity_Name")
fetchRequest.predicate = NSPredicate(format: "any your_key == %d", your_value)
hope this will help to someone
Solution 8 - Ios
Delete the object from core data
let entity = NSEntityDescription.entity(forEntityName: "Students", in: managedContext)
let request = NSFetchRequest<NSFetchRequestResult>()
request.entity = entity
if let result = try? managedContext.fetch(request) {
for object in result {
managedContext.delete(object as! NSManagedObject)
}
txtName.text = ""
txtPhone.text = ""
txt_Address.text = ""
labelStatus.text = "Deleted"
}
