Create custom classes by custom classes inheriting from NSFNanoObject

Person.h

#import "NSFNanoObject.h"

@interface Person : NSFNanoObject

@property (nonatomic, strong) NSString *name;
@property (nonatomic, strong) NSString *location;

@end

Person.m

#import "Person.h"
#import "NanoStore.h"

@implementation Person

@synthesize name;
@synthesize location;

- (id)initFromDictionaryRepresentation:(NSDictionary *)theDictionary
{
  [self clearNulls:theDictionary];
  
  self = [super initFromDictionaryRepresentation:theDictionary];

  if (self) {
    self.name = [theDictionary objectForKey:@"name"];
    self.location = [theDictionary objectForKey:@"location"];
  }
  
  return self;
}

@end

SomeController.m

#import "Person.h"

@interface SomeController ()

@end

@implementation SomeController

-(void)awakeFromNib
{
  // ...

  NSString *thePath = @"~/Desktop/peopleApp.database";
  NSFNanoStore *nanoStore = [NSFNanoStore createAndOpenStoreWithType:NSFPersistentStoreType path:thePath error:nil];
  
  // Obtain the engine
  NSFNanoEngine *nanoStoreEngine = [nanoStore nanoStoreEngine];
  
  // Set the synchronous mode setting
  [nanoStoreEngine setSynchronousMode:SynchronousModeOff];
  [nanoStoreEngine setEncodingType:NSFEncodingUTF16];
  
  // Open the document store
  [nanoStore openWithError:nil];


  // This should initialize a newly created NanoObject for Person as the NanoObject.h suggest
  // + (NSFNanoObject*)nanoObjectWithDictionary:(NSDictionary *)theDictionary;
  // /** * Initializes a newly allocated NanoObject with the given dictionary.

  Person *aPerson = [[Person alloc] initFromDictionaryRepresentation:personDict];
  // ...
}

@end

@tciuro it works!!! Thanks a lot!
