Rollback pre-process changes, now we added additional unit tests to ensure that working functionality such as syncing ordered relationships or custom keys don't break again.

We've moved to using modules, this means that Sync goes iOS 8 and above. This helps for example giving access to better batch update APIs released on iOS 8 but not much more, so if you really need iOS 7 support, please let us know.

Make sure to add use_frameworks! to your Podfile and be happy!

• Before the provide NSPredicate only filtered local items, now it will also filter the elements in the changes array. (https://github.com/hyperoslo/Sync/pull/128)
• Also we updated the dependency NSManagedObject-HYPPropertyMapper to 3.3.2 which improves support for using hyp_dictionary, this will convert your NSManagedObjects (and it's childs) back to JSON! (https://github.com/hyperoslo/NSManagedObject-HYPPropertyMapper/releases/tag/3.3.2)
• Finally we updated DATAStack to 3.1.2, which improves support for the disposable context, this is useful when you want to do a bunch of CoreData work that it's not meant to be persisted, look at it as a clean bridge when you're trying to move things from the main thread into a background thread. (https://github.com/3lvis/DATAStack/releases/tag/3.1.2)

• Rollback changes preprocessing using NSPredicate.

• Updated dependencies
  • DATAStack now on 3.1.1, latest update includes improvements for the drop method

• Updated dependencies

Now Sync uses NSManagedObject-HYPPropertyMapper 3.3.0. This release improves how hyp_dictionary works. More details here.

• Updated dependencies

Now Sync uses NSManagedObject-HYPPropertyMapper 3.2.1. Handling of dates with miliseconds has been improved. Also using hyp_dictionary would return the NSDates correctly formatted in ISO 8601.

• Preprocess changes before inserting them. This improves how the predicate works on Sync. More details on https://github.com/hyperoslo/Sync/issues/119

• Update dependencies

• Updated dependencies

• Fix bug with many-to-many relationships where the remote name would be used instead of the local one. We didn't detected this one earlier because our relationships didn't had more than one letter, duh.

Thanks to @Nik09 who helped pointing out this error 👏

This release of Sync improves how many-to-many relationships work.

We added two use cases to our suite of tests:

• Improved uniquing (this is perfect for entities that share a child) => Fixed on #96

• Fixed an issue with recursive entities => Fixed on #97

We also fixed a bug in our DesignerNews demo, the Comment entity is a recursive entity and didn't had a parentComment relationship which is needed in this cases => Fixed on #100

We also want to thanks @kostiakoval who pointed out the first two bugs, his input was key to make this release possible, so a big round of applause for him.

When we switched to SQLite in our automatic tests we saw a bunch of failures (we were using In-memory before). We fixed those issues in this release.

• Updated dependencies, now many to many relationships with custom primary keys should "just work" (#85)

• Improved one-to-one mapping (#72)

Thanks a lot to @Tif-tof for his contributions on Sync, he's awesome.

• Fixes an issue where Sync wouldn't support Entities that had custom mapping on a custom primary key (#59)

For example:

In Core Data Model:

Map ImageId in the JSON to imageId:

imageId => hyper.remoteKey : ImageId

Make imageId the primary key:

imageId => hyper.isPrimaryKey : YES

JSON:

[
  {
    "ImageId": 0,
    "url": "http://sample.com/sample0.png"
  }
]

Thanks to @bmnick for his contributions on this release. Be careful if you find him walking around the streets this week, looks like he's on his kicking all asses week. 🏃

• 1.0.0 release, over this point releases will use http://semver.org

🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉

• Update dependencies

More from 0.7.0

• Added support for custom primary keys, before it was inferred that the primary key would be remoteID, now you can add hyper.isPrimaryKey to your attribute to mark it as primary key
• Added support for Binary Data types, in this way you can use NSDictionary and NSArray, read more in HYPPropertyMapper 3.0.0
• [BREAKING CHANGE] Improved API, now it should be simpler to use and more consistent

+ (void)changes:(NSArray *)changes
  inEntityNamed:(NSString *)entityName
      dataStack:(DATAStack *)dataStack
     completion:(void (^)(NSError *error))completion;

• [BREAKING CHANGE] Improved Core Data user info keys to be more consistent

static NSString * const SyncCustomPrimaryKey = @"hyper.isPrimaryKey";
static NSString * const SyncCustomRemoteKey = @"hyper.remoteKey";

Thanks a lot to @RamonGilabert for his contributions on this release. Don't even try to get him, we already made him sign for his soul.
