I like the comment from Christos, on iOS;

Using a NSPredicate as the 'filter argument' makes sense for the overal iOS platform, and it should smoothly work with our current impls

JS has implemented a pretty generic and rather useful filter method :

https://github.com/aerogear/aerogear-js/blob/master/src/data-manager/adapters/memory.js#L281-L403

It is currently used in the JS TODO app. I am hesitant to remove it as it is useful and is one of the main useful features of DataManager for 1.0 other than it being a base for future development.

At the same time, I am leery of leaving it in if iOS and Android don't have something similar since this feature was not thoroughly discussed. I would hate to leave this in, only to have to deprecate it in a later release for something that we decide works better for all libs.

Other input would be appreciated.

(I was thinking on using an NSPredicate to match what is offered in Android, but let's revisit this with a proper API)

Thanks,

Hi,

AGStore defines the following func:

-(NSArray*) filter:(id)filterObject;

Right now, there is NO implementation, so I'd vote to remove it.... Otherwise we will have this function around in future releases... 

If (later) we want some filtering (e.g. when more complex stores are around), we can define a proper API - instead of having some 'guess-ware' around...

FWIW, I created this ticket:

https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AEROGEAR-938
