iOS 关于KVC的简单知识

KVC(key-value coding)，键值编码。指在iOS开发中，开发者可以通过属性名直接访问属性，给属性赋值或者取值，而不需要显式的调用setter和getter方法，这样就可以在运行时动态的访问和修改对象的属性。

KVC常用的四个方法

- (nullable id)valueForKey:(NSString *)key;                          //直接通过Key来取值
- (void)setValue:(nullable id)value forKey:(NSString *)key;          //通过Key来设值
- (nullable id)valueForKeyPath:(NSString *)keyPath;                  //通过KeyPath来取值
- (void)setValue:(nullable id)value forKeyPath:(NSString *)keyPath;  //通过KeyPath来设值

valueForKey 和 setValue: forKey:的简单用法

我们都知道当一个对象的属性在声明文件（.h）中声明时，是可以用点语法访问并赋值的，但是如果声明在实现文件（.m）中，在外面用点语法是访问不到的，此时KVC就起到作用了

#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
@interface Book : NSObject
@end
#import "Book.h"
@interface Book()
@property (strong, nonatomic) NSString *name;
@property (assign, nonatomic) CGFloat price;
@end
@implementation Book
@end

//在控制器中实现下面代码
Book *book1 = [[Book alloc]init];
[book1 setValue:@"ios" forKey:@"name"];
[book1 setValue:@12 forKey:@"price"];
 NSString *name = [book1 valueForKey:@"name"];
 NSNumber *price = [book1 valueForKey:@"price"];
 NSLog(@"name = %@,price = %@",name,price.floatValue);

//打印结果如下
name = ios,price = 12.000000

这样以后我们自定义一些控件的时候访问私有属性就方便多了。 另外，我们还可以修改系统控件的内部属性，如我们自定义好一个tabbar，可以用下面的方式替换系统本来的UITabbar

 [self setValue:[[CustomTabbar alloc]init] forKey:@"tabBar"];

valueForKeypath 和 setValue:forKeypath: 的简单用法

当一个对象成为另一个对象的属性时，使用KVC就方便的多

#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>

@class Address;
@interface People : NSObject
@property (strong, nonatomic) NSString *name;
@property (strong, nonatomic) Address *address;
@property (assign, nonatomic) NSInteger age;
@end

@interface Address : NSObject
@property (strong, nonatomic) NSString *contry;
@end

#import "People.h"
@interface People ()
@end
@implementation People
@end

@interface Address ()
@end
@implementation Address
@end

//在控制器中实现下面代码
Address *address = [[Address alloc]init];
address.contry = @"China";
People *people = [[People alloc]init];
people.address = address;
NSString *country1 = people.address.contry;
NSString *country2 = [people valueForKeyPath:@"address.contry"];
NSLog(@"1 = %@   2 = %@",country1,country2);
 
[people setValue:@"中国" forKeyPath:@"address.contry"];
country1 = people.address.contry;
country2 = [people valueForKeyPath:@"address.contry"]; NSLog(@"1 = %@   2 = %@",country1,country2);

KVC对于keyPath是搜索机制第一步就是分离key，用小数点.来分割key，然后再像普通key一样按照顺序搜索下去。

KVC 和 字典

常用的两个方法

- (NSDictionary<NSString *, id> *)dictionaryWithValuesForKeys:(NSArray<NSString *> *)keys;
- (void)setValuesForKeysWithDictionary:(NSDictionary<NSString *, id> *)keyedValues;

Addresss *add = [[Addresss alloc]init];
add.country = @"China";
add.province = @"Hebei";
add.city = @"Qinhuangdao";
add.district = @"Yanghedao";
NSArray *keys = @[@"country",@"province",@"city",@"district"];
//把对应key所有的属性全部取出来
NSDictionary *dict = [add dictionaryWithValuesForKeys:keys];
NSLog(@"dict = %@",dict);
    
//字典转模型
NSDictionary *modiDic = @{@"country":@"中国",@"province":@"河北省",@"city":@"秦皇岛市",@"district":@"洋河道"};
[add setValuesForKeysWithDictionary:modiDic];
NSLog(@"%@%@%@%@",add.country,add.province,add.city,add.district);

KVC处理非对象和自定义对象 （这里就不举例了！！！）

不是每一个方法都返回对象，但是valueForKey：总是返回一个id对象，如果原本的变量类型是值类型或者结构体，返回值会封装成NSNumber或者NSValue对象。这两个类会处理从数字，布尔值到指针和结构体任何类型。然后开以者需要手动转换成原来的类型。尽管valueForKey：会自动将值类型封装成对象，但是setValue：forKey：却不行。你必须手动将值类型转换成NSNumber或者NSValue类型，才能传递过去。

对于自定义对象，KVC也会正确地设值和取值。因为传递进去和取出来的都是id类型，所以需要开发者自己担保类型的正确性，运行时Objective-C在发送消息的会检查类型，如果错误会直接抛出异常。

KVC自带的运算

①简单集合运算符
@sum @avg @count @min @max 相信大家都知道这些运算符的意思

②对象运算符 返回值都是NSArray
@distinctUnionOfObjects //获取去重后的元素
@unionOfObjects//获取所有的元素

    Book *book1 = [[Book alloc]init];
    book1.name = @"ios";
    book1.price = 12;

    Book *book2 = [[Book alloc]init];
    book2.name = @"ios2";
    book2.price = 15;

    Book *book3 = [[Book alloc]init];
    book3.name = @"ios3";
    book3.price = 111;

    Book *book4 = [[Book alloc]init];
    book4.name = @"ios1";
    book4.price = 111;

    NSArray *arrBooks = @[book1,book2,book3,book4];
    NSNumber *sum = [arrBooks valueForKeyPath:@"@sum.price"];
    NSLog(@"sum = %f",sum.floatValue);
    NSNumber *avg = [arrBooks valueForKeyPath:@"@avg.price"];
    NSLog(@"avg = %f",avg.floatValue);
    NSNumber *count = [arrBooks valueForKeyPath:@"@count"];
    NSLog(@"count = %f",count.floatValue);
    NSNumber *min = [arrBooks valueForKeyPath:@"@min.price"];
    NSLog(@"min = %f",min.floatValue);
    NSNumber *max = [arrBooks valueForKeyPath:@"@max.price"];
    NSLog(@"max = %f",max.floatValue);
    
    NSLog(@"distinctUnionOfObjects");//获取去重后的元素
    NSArray *arrDistinch = [arrBooks valueForKeyPath:@"@distinctUnionOfObjects.price"];
    NSLog(@"arrDis = %@",arrDistinch);
    NSLog(@"UnionOfObjects");//获取所有元素
    NSArray *arrUnion = [arrBooks valueForKeyPath:@"@unionOfObjects.price"];
    NSLog(@"arrUnion = %@",arrUnion);

总结：KVC常用的两种用法就 对私有变量访问和赋值 和 字典转模型。
