SQLiteManager

SQLiteManager is a manager of SQL statements for iOS projects in objective-c. SQLiteManager follows the Singleton design pattern to simplify its use throughout the project. In an MVC design pattern, SQLiteManager can be regarded as the parent class of the Model layer.

Install

Drag and drop files SQLiteManager.h and SQLiteManager.m in your project in Xcode.

Add to your frameworks list libsqlite3.dylib to your project.

Add your database to your project eg datables.sqlite . To create a sqlite database, you can use the sqlite manager firefox addon.

Edit SQLiteManager.h and enter the name of your database to the constant databaseName with its extension.

When you want to use SQLiteManager, #import "SQLiteManager.h" in your code file:

You can now access method SQLiteManager this way [SQLiteManager singleton]:

All

-(NSArray *)findAllFrom:(NSString *)table;

Reads all rows from a table.

  • @ param1: table name

  • @ param1: (optional) fields required

Example 1

NSString *sql = @"SELECT * FROM tableName WHERE id=3 OR id=7";
NSArray *result =[[SQLiteManager singleton] executeSql:sql];
