Core Data & iCloud Auto Sync

Since iOS 13 now supports Core Data auto sync with CloudKit, the project will take advantage of that.

Requirement:

Creating the Core Data Stack using NSPersistentCloudKitContainer instead of NSPersistentContainer.
The auto sync feature requires that all properties of NSManagedObject's Entity must be optional in the .xcdatamodeld file.

Resource:

CloudKit Share

Still on the list.

Dark Mode

To support dark mode out of the box, the project makes use of system colors such as Color.primary, .secondary, and .accentColor...

Markdown

Still on the list.

View

Model View View Model (MVVM)

The MVVM is used on most of the top level views to handle view update. Whereas, some of the inner views or views that are part of the top level views might only need @State or @ObservedObject properties.

Most top level views have their own view model either a struct or a class which conforms to ObservableObject.
Property Wrapper @Published is used in the class view model to get will-change signal from the publisher for the properties of interest.

Navigation View Push/Pop

There is a feature in the application to discard any unsaved changes when user tap on the navigation view's back button.

Until there is a native way of doing this, the approach right now is to use NavigationStateHandler object to setup action to perform when the view is pushed or popped.

Create/Read/Update/Delete Core Data Object

The approach right now is the make use of EnvironmentObject. There will be a concrete data source object specific to each type of model object that will handle all the actions.

The concrete data source object will conform to ObjectDataSource protocol. The protocol has all the methods for fetching, creating, reading, updating, deleting, and validating NSManagedObject. The ObjectDataSource protocol works hand in hand with ObjectValidatable protocol.

Therefore, views that have access to the EnvironmentObject will be able to access objects and methods to perform necessary actions.

Concrete classes conform to ObjectDataSource:
Concrete classes conform to ObjectValidatable:
- Store
- Customer
- Order
- OrderItem
- SaleItem
