NSPredicate: Combine CONTAINS with IN

Question

I have a set of users in CoreData and an search field in my application. User has the properties firstname and name.

Currently I have a predicate like \"user.name CO

Answer 1

2.5 years later I can answer my question with a bit more complex example in swift:

var predicateList = [NSPredicate]()

let words = filterText.componentsSeparatedByString(" ")

for word in words{

     if count(word)==0{
           continue
     }

     let firstNamePredicate = NSPredicate(format: "firstName contains[c] %@", word)
     let lastNamePredicate = NSPredicate(format: "lastName contains[c] %@", word)
     let departmentPredicate = NSPredicate(format: "department contains[c] %@", word)
     let jobTitlePredicate = NSPredicate(format: "jobTitle contains[c] %@", word)

     let orCompoundPredicate = NSCompoundPredicate(type: NSCompoundPredicateType.OrPredicateType, subpredicates: [firstNamePredicate, lastNamePredicate,departmentPredicate,jobTitlePredicate])

     predicateList.append(orCompoundPredicate)
}

request.predicate = NSCompoundPredicate(type: NSCompoundPredicateType.AndPredicateType, subpredicates: predicateList)
