deleting object from realm database.

I am writing Todo app. My app is simple. I have two pages. One page for showing tasks in table view. And one page for adding new tasks. In this page I post to server and then in main page I get data from server and then save it in realm database.

When I Want to delete them in my main page , my app crashes by this error. 

  Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '-[TodoApp.TodosTableViewController delete:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x7fca7b40b4c0

Anyone knows why? It is my deleting function :

public func delete<T:Object>(_ model: T) {
    let realm = try! Realm()
    
    try! realm.write {
        
        realm.delete(model)
        
        }
}

And this is the place that I use this function to delete from database :

override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, commit editingStyle: UITableViewCellEditingStyle, forRowAt indexPath: IndexPath){
        
        if editingStyle == UITableViewCellEditingStyle.delete {
            rowHere = indexPath.row
            // it crashes the app when I want to delete from database
            
//            delete(self.todos[self.rowHere!])
            
            self.todos.remove(at: indexPath.row)
            tableView.deleteRows(at: [indexPath as IndexPath], with:           UITableViewRowAnimation.automatic)
            
            
            
        }
    }

First get Object model in viewDidLoad()

var DatabaseModel: Results<ObjectClassRealm>!

override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()
    let realm = RealmService.shared.realm
    DatabaseModel = realm.objects(ObjectClassRealm.self)
}


func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, commit editingStyle: UITableViewCellEditingStyle, forRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) { 
    guard editingStyle == .delete else { return }
    let objectData = DatabaseModel[indexPath.row]
    RealmService.shared.delete(objectData)
}

Or you can delete on button click 

@IBAction func DeleteData(_ sender: Any) {
    let realm = try! Realm()
    let deleteData = realm.object(ofType: ObjectClassRealm.self, 
                                  forPrimaryKey: PRIMARYKEY)
    if deleteData == nil {
        print("No data in DB")
    } else {
        RealmService.shared.delete(deleteData!)
    }
}

I implemented something similar in my app, hope it helps you.

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, commit editingStyle: UITableViewCellEditingStyle, forRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
    //deleteRecords()
    delete(index: indexPath.row)
    retrieveFoods()
    tableView.reloadData()
}

func retrieveFoods() {
    let realm = try! Realm()
    myFoodsArray = realm.objects(MyFoods.self).sorted(byKeyPath: "name", ascending: true)
}

func delete(index: Int) {
    let myFood = myFoodsArray[index]
    let realm = try! Realm()
    try! realm.write {
        realm.delete(myFood)
        self.tableView.reloadData()
    }
}

I found out that that problem comes from "delete" word. It seems that this word preserved for Xcode. When I call it , it goes to another delete method in another place not mine. I changed the name to for example deleteSomethings and it worked.

I'm thinking that the error message is deceiving. You haven't shown where you define the class property rowHere (as an integer), but the variable isn't needed here.

delete(self.todos[self.rowHere!])

if todos is an array of your realm Object subclass, then this should work:

   let objectToDelete = self.todos[indexPath.row]
   delete(objectToDelete])

as long as your delete is something like this: (my Realm instance is called realmStore)

func delete(objectToDelete: Object) // use your subclass name
    do {
       try realmStore.write {
          realmStore.delete(record)
       }
    } catch {
       print("Could not delete object.\n\(String(describing: error.localizedDescription))"
}
