How to save file in the documents folder?

Question

I am trying to save data in the documents folder on iPhone 5.1 simulator.

 NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDo         


        

Answer 1

get document directory path

+(NSURL *)getDocumentsDirectoryPath
{
    return [[[NSFileManager defaultManager]URLsForDirectory:NSDocumentDirectory inDomains:NSUserDomainMask]lastObject];
}

write data to end of file

+(void)saveText:(NSString *)textTobeSaved atPath:(NSString*)fileName
{
    NSString *filePath = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@.text",fileName];

    NSString *path = [[self getDocumentsDirectoryPath].path
                      stringByAppendingPathComponent:filePath];
    NSFileHandle *fileHandler = [NSFileHandle fileHandleForWritingAtPath:path];
    if(fileHandler == nil) {
        [[NSFileManager defaultManager] createFileAtPath:path contents:nil attributes:nil];
        fileHandler = [NSFileHandle fileHandleForWritingAtPath:path];
    } else {
        textTobeSaved = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"\n-----------------------\n %@",textTobeSaved];
        [fileHandler seekToEndOfFile];
    }

    [fileHandler writeData:[textTobeSaved dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
    [fileHandler closeFile];
}
