CBLMutableDictionary

@protocol CBLMutableDictionary <CBLDictionary, CBLMutableDictionaryFragment>

CBLMutableDictionary protocol defines a set of methods for writing dictionary data.

Type Setters

  • Set a CBLArray object for the given key. A nil value will be converted to an NSNull.

    Declaration

    Objective-C

    - (void)setArray:(nullable CBLArray *)value forKey:(nonnull NSString *)key;

    Parameters

    value

    The CBLArray object.

  • Set a CBLBlob object for the given key. A nil value will be converted to an NSNull.

    Declaration

    Objective-C

    - (void)setBlob:(nullable CBLBlob *)value forKey:(nonnull NSString *)key;

    Parameters

    value

    The CBLBolb object.

  • Set a boolean value for the given key.

    Declaration

    Objective-C

    - (void)setBoolean:(BOOL)value forKey:(nonnull NSString *)key;

    Parameters

    value

    The boolean value.

  • Set a Date object for the given key. A nil value will be converted to an NSNull.

    Declaration

    Objective-C

    - (void)setDate:(nullable NSDate *)value forKey:(nonnull NSString *)key;

    Parameters

    value

    The Date object.

  • Set a CBLDictionary object for the given key. A nil value will be converted to an NSNull.

    Declaration

    Objective-C

    - (void)setDictionary:(nullable CBLDictionary *)value
               forKey:(nonnull NSString *)key;

    Parameters

    value

    The CBLDictionary object.

  • Set a double value for the given key.

    Declaration

    Objective-C

    - (void)setDouble:(double)value forKey:(nonnull NSString *)key;

    Parameters

    value

    The double value.

  • Set a float value for the given key.

    Declaration

    Objective-C

    - (void)setFloat:(float)value forKey:(nonnull NSString *)key;

    Parameters

    value

    The float value.

  • Set an integer value for the given key.

    Declaration

    Objective-C

    - (void)setInteger:(NSInteger)value forKey:(nonnull NSString *)key;

    Parameters

    value

    The integer value.

  • Set a long long value for the given key.

    Declaration

    Objective-C

    - (void)setLongLong:(long long)value forKey:(nonnull NSString *)key;

    Parameters

    value

    The long long value.

  • Set an NSNumber object for the given key. A nil value will be converted to an NSNull.

    Declaration

    Objective-C

    - (void)setNumber:(nullable NSNumber *)value forKey:(nonnull NSString *)key;

    Parameters

    value

    The NSNumber object.

  • Set an object value for the given key. Allowed value types are CBLMutableArray, CBLBlob, CBLMutableDictionary, NSArray, NSDate, NSDictionary, NSNumber, NSNull, NSString. The NSArrays and NSDictionaries must contain only the above types. An NSDate value will be converted to an ISO-8601 format string. A nil value will be converted an NSNull.

    Declaration

    Objective-C

    - (void)setObject:(nullable id)value forKey:(nonnull NSString *)key;

    Parameters

    value

    The object value.
    key

    The key.

  • Set an String object for the given key. A nil value will be converted to an NSNull.

    Declaration

    Objective-C

    - (void)setString:(nullable NSString *)value forKey:(nonnull NSString *)key;

    Parameters

    value

    The String object.

Setting content with an NSDictionary

  • Set a dictionary as a content. Allowed value types are CBLMutableArray, CBLBlob, CBLMutableDictionary, NSArray, NSDate, NSDictionary, NSNumber, NSNull, NSString. The NSArrays and NSDictionaries must contain only the above types. Setting the new dictionary content will replace the current data including the existing CBLMutableArray and CBLMutableDictionary objects.

    Declaration

    Objective-C

    - (void)setDictionary:(nullable NSDictionary<NSString *, id> *)dictionary;

    Parameters

    dictionary

    The dictionary.

Removing Entries

  • Removes a given key and its value from the dictionary.

    Declaration

    Objective-C

    - (void)removeObjectForKey:(nonnull NSString *)key;

    Parameters

    key

    The key.

Getting dictionary and array object

  • Get a property’s value as a CBLMutableArray, which is a mapping object of an array value. Returns nil if the property doesn’t exists, or its value is not an array.

    Declaration

    Objective-C

    - (nullable CBLMutableArray *)arrayForKey:(nonnull NSString *)key;

    Parameters

    key

    The key.

    Return Value

    The CBLMutableArray object or nil if the property doesn’t exist.

  • Get a property’s value as a CBLMutableDictionary, which is a mapping object of a dictionary value. Returns nil if the property doesn’t exists, or its value is not a dictionary.

    Declaration

    Objective-C

    - (nullable CBLMutableDictionary *)dictionaryForKey:(nonnull NSString *)key;

    Parameters

    key

    The key.

    Return Value

    The CBLMutableDictionary object or nil if the key doesn’t exist.

Subscript

  • Subscripting access to a CBLMutableFragment object that represents the value of the dictionary by key.

    Declaration

    Objective-C

    - (nullable CBLMutableFragment *)objectForKeyedSubscript:
    (nonnull NSString *)key;

    Parameters

    key

    The key.

    Return Value

    The CBLMutableFragment object.
