AllocData

An open data model for financial applications, typically those used by the do-it-yourself investor.

Available as an open source Swift library to be incorporated in other apps.

AllocData is part of the OpenAlloc family of open source Swift software tools.

Data Formats

Dates

In delimited text files, the dates should be in the ISO 8601 / RFC 3339 format (e.g., "2012-12-31T19:00:00Z").

API

Entities in the data model all conform to the following protocols:

Base

Base functionality for all entities. Currently just a schema identifier.

public protocol AllocBase {
    static var schema: AllocSchema { get }
}

Keyed

Used to retrieve and generate the entity's primary key.

This new struct-based implementation replaces the old string-based one.

The emptyKey property can be used for picker tag values, as an example.

public protocol AllocKeyed: Hashable {
    associatedtype Key: Hashable, Codable

    var primaryKey: Key { get }
    static var emptyKey: Key { get }
}

The entities also conform to the Identifiable protocol where the id is the primary key.

Rowed

Used to parse (decode) and generate (encode) delimited data for the entities.

public protocol AllocRowed: AllocKeyed {
    // pre-decoded row, without strong typing
    typealias RawRow = [String: String]

    // decoded row, with stronger typing
    typealias DecodedRow = [String: AnyHashable]

    // create object from row
    init(from row: DecodedRow) throws

    static func decode(_ rawRows: [RawRow], rejectedRows: inout [RawRow]) throws -> [DecodedRow]

    // additive update from row
    mutating func update(from row: DecodedRow) throws

    static func getPrimaryKey(_ row: DecodedRow) throws -> Key
}

Attributable

Used to fetch a description of the entity's attributes.

public protocol AllocAttributable {
    static var attributes: [AllocAttribute] { get }
}

Contributing

Contributions are welcome. You are encouraged to submit pull requests to fix bugs, improve documentation, or offer new features.

The pull request need not be a production-ready feature or fix. It can be a draft of proposed changes, or simply a test to show that expected behavior is buggy. Discussion on the pull request can proceed from there.

Contributions should ultimately have adequate test coverage. See tests for current entities to see what coverage is expected.
