How to model notes, so I can search them ,after, by dates? like on the picture.
Firstly, I thought about dictionary with key of type Date
; but it didn't work to me.
So I've tried the following String
format:
"04-28-2020" - US calendar
"28-04-2020" - Other calendar
One of the issues - if the telephone changes date style(region dependent), keys remain in dictionary, but aren't accessed any more...
My intuition that it should be the dictionary, but what are the sustainable way to make such a model?
Can it be an array of notes [Note]
, without keys?
struct Note: Codable, Identifiable {
let id = UUID()
var date: Date
var title: String
var description: String
var dateString: String {
let df = DateFormatter()
df.dateStyle = .short
df.timeStyle = .medium
return df.string(from: date)
}
// method returns "key" to be used in dictionary
static func dateKey(for date: Date) -> String {
let df = DateFormatter()
df.dateStyle = .short
return df.string(from: date)
}
}
class NotesOrganizer: ObservableObject {
// @Published var notes = [Note]() - tried initially
@Published var notesDictionary = [String : [Note]]()
}
struct ContentView: View {
@State private var title = ""
@State private var description = ""
@ObservedObject var notesOrganizer = NotesOrganizer()
var body: some View {
NavigationView {
VStack {
Button("Save note") {
let key = Note.dateKey(for: Date())
notesOrganizer.notesDictionary[key]?.append(Note(date: Date(), title: title, description: description))
?? (notesOrganizer.notesDictionary[key] = [Note(date: Date(), title: title, description: description)])
print("Date Key: \(Note.dateKey(for: Date()))")
}
NavigationLink(destination: DetailView(notesOrganizer: notesOrganizer))
{
Text("Log history ->")
.foregroundColor(.purple)
.underline()
}
}
.navigationBarHidden(true)
}
}
init() {
UINavigationBar.appearance().setBackgroundImage(UIImage(), for: .default)
UINavigationBar.appearance().shadowImage = UIImage()
}
}
DetailView()
extension Date {
var tomorrow: Date? {
return Calendar.current.date(byAdding: .day, value: 1, to: self)
}
var yesterday: Date? {
return Calendar.current.date(byAdding: .day, value: -1, to: self)
}
}
struct DetailView: View {
@ObservedObject var notesOrganizer: NotesOrganizer
@State private var dayLabel: String = Note.dateKey(for: Date())
@State private var chosenDate = Date()
var body: some View {
VStack {
HStack {
Button(action: {
chosenDate = chosenDate.yesterday!
dayLabel = Note.dateKey(for: chosenDate)
}, label: {
Image(systemName: "chevron.left")
})
Text(dayLabel)
Spacer()
Button(action: {
chosenDate = chosenDate.tomorrow!
dayLabel = Note.dateKey(for: chosenDate)
}, label: {
Image(systemName: "chevron.right")
})
}
.padding([.horizontal,.bottom])
List{
ForEach(notesOrganizer.notesDictionary[day] ?? []) { note in
HStack {
VStack(alignment:.leading) {
Text(note.title)
Text(note.description)
}.multilineTextAlignment(.leading)
Spacer()
Text(note.dateString)
}
}.onDelete(perform: removeItems)
}
.navigationBarTitle("", displayMode: .inline)
Spacer()
}
