I am trying to search my objects on parse.com using a uisearchbar and performing 'findObjectsInBackgroundWithBlock'. I am getting the correct results in my output but they are not showing up in my table.
I was previously doing this without blocks, my code worked, it got the correct results but moved very slowly and I was getting a warning, "Warning: A long-running Parse operation is being executed on the main thread"
I had previously been using the code:
- (void)filterResults:(NSString *)searchTerm {
[self.searchResults removeAllObjects];
PFQuery *query = [PFQuery queryWithClassName: @"Items"];
[query whereKeyExists:@"itemName"];
[query whereKeyExists:@"itemDescription"];
[query whereKey:@"tags" containsString:searchTerm];
NSArray *results = [query findObjects];
NSLog(@"%@", results);
NSLog(@"%u", results.count);
[self.searchResults addObjectsFromArray:results];
}
So now I am trying findObjectsInBackgroundWithBlock instead, I have not worked with blocks before so this is where I need help, here is my new code:
- (void)filterResults:(NSString *)searchTerm {
[self.searchResults removeAllObjects];
PFQuery *query = [PFQuery queryWithClassName: @"Items"];
[query whereKey:@"tags" containsString:searchTerm];
[query findObjectsInBackgroundWithBlock:^(NSArray *objects, NSError *error) {
NSLog(@"%@", objects);
NSLog(@"%u", objects.count);
[self.searchResults addObjectsFromArray:objects];}];
Here is some more of my code
- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section {
if (tableView == self.tableView) {
return self.objects.count;
} else {
return self.searchResults.count;
}
}
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath object:(PFObject *)object {
NSString *uniqueIdentifier = @"cell";
HomeCell *cell = nil;
cell = (HomeCell *) [self.tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:uniqueIdentifier];
if (!cell) {
NSArray *topLevelObjects = [[NSBundle mainBundle] loadNibNamed:@"HomeCell" owner:nil options:nil];
for (id currentObject in topLevelObjects)
{
if([currentObject isKindOfClass:[HomeCell class]])
{
cell = (HomeCell *)currentObject;
break;
}
}
}
if (tableView != self.searchDisplayController.searchResultsTableView) {
NSString *itemName = [object objectForKey:@"itemName"];
NSString *itemDescription = [object objectForKey:@"itemDescription"];
//cell.textLabel.text = last;
cell.cellTitleLabel.text = itemName;
cell.descriptionLabel.text = itemDescription;
cell.priceLabel.text = [object objectForKey:@"price"];
PFFile *thumbnail = [object objectForKey:@"imageFile"];
PFImageView *thumbnailImageView = cell.imageFile;
thumbnailImageView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"Facebook @2x.png"];
thumbnailImageView.file = thumbnail;
[thumbnailImageView loadInBackground];
}
if ([tableView isEqual:self.searchDisplayController.searchResultsTableView]) {
PFObject *obj2 = [self.searchResults objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
PFQuery *query = [PFQuery queryWithClassName:@"Items"];
PFObject *searchedItems = [query getObjectWithId:obj2.objectId];
NSString *itemName = [searchedItems objectForKey:@"itemName"];
NSString *itemDescription = [searchedItems objectForKey:@"itemDescription"];
cell.cellTitleLabel.text = itemName;
cell.descriptionLabel.text = itemDescription;
cell.priceLabel.text = [searchedItems objectForKey:@"itemName"];
PFFile *thumbnail = [searchedItems objectForKey:@"imageFile"];
PFImageView *thumbnailImageView = cell.imageFile;
thumbnailImageView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"Facebook @2x.png"];
thumbnailImageView.file = thumbnail;
[thumbnailImageView loadInBackground];
}
return cell;
Any help would be greatly appreciated, cheers
