Using ReSwift with a NSFetchResultsController?

[mycroftcanner]

How would you model state in a table view driven by an NSFetchResultsController?

I can let the NSFetchResultsControllerDelegateupdate the table view by inserting, updating, moving and deleting view and when the delegate methodcontrollerDidChangeContent(_:)is called, update the state using the fetch results controller's propertyfetchedObjects`.

That seems like a sensible approach. What does NSFetchResultsController give you on top of ReSwift so you need to use it, though? They kind of serve a similar purpose.

One of the biggest advantages is that a FRC can monitor storage changes for you and notify your provided delegate of said changes. Whether the data set has an entry added, removed or updated.

If I use the FRC fetchedObjects and convert my entities to structs I will lose the benefits of faults (large objects can be represented by a fault instead, until they really are needed.) unless I just map fetchedObjects to their objectIDs and only keep the objectIDs in the state and create a state for a cell lazily when it is needed (when faulting).

My entities are updating continually in the background
