Have RLMResults report query changesets when realm is updated / NSFetchedResultsController alternative

[matthewcheok]

This would be great for animations similar to NSFetchedResultsController.

I really hope there will be one.
In the meantime someone already started a custom one:

We definitely plan to support this. We will most likely create a new class to replace RLMArray for query results which will support change notifications.

Any ETA on this enhancement?

This is really the last nail in the coffin for CoreData, so it would be nice to at least know when in the Release Schedule this is planned so I can chose one technology or the other.

Thanks for this amazing technology!

Also waiting with baited breath on this

What's up with that? What blocked label means? )

[segiddins]

@Just- the blocked able means that we cannot implement this in the Cocoa binding alone -- we need some work to be done in the Core database before we can implement the feature.

@segiddins thanks, for clarification
Do you plan more detail RLMRealmNotification in near builds? (eg name of realm model class which updated)

[iandundas]

Also would like to know, this would be a good alternative

Supporting fine-grain notifications is one of our highest priorities right now, so you'll definitely know as soon as we have something to share.

Cool, wish there was something I could do to help! :)

good news, thank you :)

I am looking forward to this now too, have to do some unsettling state management for making table views not just completely reload themselves when something changes.

Well, not this exact thing, but the idea of it: Granular updates, or information with an update about what actually changed, even if it's just a list of primary keys.

If interested in a NSFetchedResultsController replacement until Realm implements it internally, check out: https://github.com/Roobiq/RBQFetchedResultsController

It was built to be a drop-in replacement, with the only hitch that you have to log your changes through a RBQRealmChangeLogger to broadcast them since Realm isn't reporting changes yet. Feel free to reach out at adam@roobiq.com if you have any questions.

I'd love to use Realm for a new project but this is unfortunately a deal breaker. Hope you get there soon! 👍
