Core Data lightweight migration crashes after App update

问题


Two days ago I released the App. According to feedback on AppStore and crash reports from itunesconnect there are a lot of crashes on launch. But not 100% users suffered, only 30% maybe.

I've read the crash logs and saw a problem. It's crashing on DB migration process. I use lightweight migration of database. Usually I add new datamodel version very carefully. Even before each release I install a previous version of the App, use it for some time and only then I install the latest version above it. So was this time.

I looked through two datamodels (previous and present). Were added:

1) New entities (it's OK for lightweight migration)
2) New fields inside existing entities. All they are optional. (OK for lightweight migration)
3) One new field in existing entity which I made optional AND indexed. (OK?)

None of existing fields and entities were renamed.


What I did wrong?

回答1:


Any chance that those users were more than one .xcversion back? Core Data will not "chain" your upgrades for you. So if you have V1, V2, and V3, and V3 becomes the current version, anyone at V1 will not be upgradable. It is possible to add in your own code that helps "step it through" V1 to V2, then V2 to V3. I believe Marcus Zarra's "Core Data" book had example code that does that.




回答2:


If this was V3 of the data model, you need to also include the V1 and V2 xcdatamodel with the shipped app, in case some of your users are still on V1 and never upgraded to V2. It kind of sounds like you had a V1 data model, but didn't include it - but I'm not sure, you may simply be talking about other apps where you've done this.

Additionally, you'll notice that Xcode does not manage an ordered list of data models, you can only choose which one is the current one. It cannot automatically upgrade V1->...->Vm->Vn, because it doesn't know anything about the order between old versions, simply that they need to become Vn to work. Try poking around in the xcdatamodeld package with a text editor.

If you're relying solely on behavior provided by Core Data, all of your prior versions must be able to directly migrate to the latest, whether that is inferred mapping models, or by you including explicit mapping models: from V1->Vn, V2->Vn, ..., Vm->Vn. That's why some people write their own code to manage this.

I believe this is exactly what Scott described in his answer.

During development of our app, we created ~6 versions of the data model (we took all but the latest out before shipping v1 to the App Store). I found it very helpful to write unit tests that verified that Core Data could create an inferred mapping model, and that lightweight migration would work.

To do this:

NSURL *sourceURL = /* exercise for reader */, *destinationURL = /* exercise */;

NSManagedObjectModel *source = [[NSManagedObjectModel alloc] initWithContentsOfURL:sourceURL];
NSManagedObjectModel *destination = [[NSManagedObjectModel alloc] initWithContentsOfURL:sourceURL];

NSError *mappingError;
NSMappingModel *inferred = [NSMappingModel inferredMappingModelForSourceModel:source destinationModel:destination error:&mappingError];

At the end of this code block, you can assert that inferred != nil, and if it is nil you can print some helpful information by inspecting mappingError.

You may find this helpful to debug your problem. You might move the repetitive parts into a function that takes two strings, the filename of an old data model, and the filename of the latest.
