FaunaDB Driver Example Project

This is a simple CRUD-style application that shows how to use the Swift driver in an iOS project.

Requirements

• CocoaPods

Running the example

• Run pod install to setup the project
• Using XCode 8+, open the workspace Example.xcworkspace
• Edit (or duplicate) the scheme "Example", and set your FaunaDB key's secret in the environment variable FAUNA_ROOT_KEY

Implementation

This demo is a simple blog post manager. It has a basic model called Post, instances of which must have a title and may optionally have a body.

Most of the interaction with FaunaDB is located in the Posts.swift file. It contains the base model Post as well as the code needed to store, update, delete, and show posts saved at FaunaDB.

Database.swift contains the database setup for this demo. In a real life application, that code would live somewhere else, such as a separated provisioning script. For the purpose of this example it is easier to let the application setup the database on launch.

The rest of the files are UI related code to present the views that are used to create, update, delete, and show the blog posts.
