Get all results from a Full Text Search without searching

[daniesy]

Hey everybody. I'm using Full Text Search to search for items in a table with UISearchController. When i first load the view, i want to display all results, without actually doing any searches. What's your recommendation for the best way of doing this?

I tried using 2 mappings and using a different ViewController for displaying results but they didn't seem like good enough solutions.

At the moment, i created a fixed constant column in the YapDatabaseFullTextSearch that every item will have and search for that. But i think it's kind of slow.

let handler = YapDatabaseFullTextSearchHandler.withObjectBlock({ (dict, collection, key, obj) in
        dict["each"] = "em0" // flag for each one
    }
})

We use two mappings with separate tableViews managed by UISearchController+UITableViewController

I saw this variant in sample file, but this way leads to lots of code duplication in the results UITableViewController....isn't there another way?

you can point both tableView delegates at the same VC and then make a method like mappingsForTableView that you use in each delegate method
