Discover Action Data
Action Data is a suite of backend controls designed to quickly and easily add support for several common databases and data formats (such as SQLite, JSON, XML and CloudKit) to your iOS, tvOS or macOS apps.
Action Data provides both light weight, low-level access to the data sources along with high level Object Relationship Management (ORM) support using Swift 4’s new Codable, Encodable and Decodable protocols and our custom Encoders and Decoders to move data between the data source and your custom data models with minimal code.
Using our Action Data Providers you can either manipulate data directly using SQL (even on data sources that do not typically provide SQL support) or create a Swift Class or Struct conforming to the ADDataTable protocol and have the Data Provider handle all of the heavy lifting for you.
Additionally, we expose our Action SQL Parser to you to provide support for your own custom data sources. The ADSQLParser provides the ability to parse text containing one or more SQL commands into an Action Data SQL Document Object Model (DOM) that can easily be executed against a data source.
Created by developers, for developers. Appracatappra’s controls are designed to be quickly added to your app’s project with a minimum of code and effort, making it easy to add high-quality, professional features and functionality to your app without having to write tons of repetitive, boilerplate code.
What’s Included
Action Data Binding
Our Action Data Binding controls allows you to quickly develop and maintain complex iOS forms and data displays by binding fields in your data model (any Swift class or structure that conforms to the Codeable protocol) to UI elements in your Storyboard in Interface Builder via designable properties.
Read, write and format values, automatically handle the keyboard, respond to user interaction and select from multiple options, all without having to create Outlets or Actions in your Storyboard.
Action Data Providers
Action Data Providers provide light weight, low-level access to several common databases and data formats such as SQLite, JSON, XML, SPON and CloudKit. Results are returned as a key/value dictionary (ADRecord) or as an array of key/value dictionaries (ADRecordSet).
Additionally, Action Data Providers provide high-level Object Relationship Management(ORM) functionality using Action Codable controls and data models conforming to the ADDataTable protocol.
