A request can be executed synchronously and asynchronously:
Synchronous requests. They return values after method execution.
Asynchronous requests. They return no value and the application moves to the next method. The response is generated as soon as available.
To get resource delta, create the HHFWDeltaStream application using a synchronous request, which uses the framework methods:
Method name | Brief description |
initWithCredentials (_: host: environment: project: device:) | The method initializes the framework. |
auth (_: password:) | The method authenticates the user by login and password. |
openBase (_: key:) | The method opens connection with database at the specified path. |
resources (_: handler:) | The method gets schemes of available resources and automatically creates corresponding tables in the database. |
deltaStream (_: deltaStreamCallParams: handler:) | The method loads delta to local database. |
getTablesName (_: resourceName: requestParams: tableName:) | The method returns table name in local database. |
query (_: query:) | The method sends SQL query to local database. |
Auxiliary methods:
Method name | Brief description |
getURL (for:) | The method returns URL for the file with the specified name in the Documents folder. Type of returned data: URL |
getRecords (from:) | The method returns value of the "records" key from JSON result of SQL query to local database. Type of returned data: [[String: Any]]? |
getTableNames (from:) | The method returns the array of values for "name" keys from results of the getRecords method. Type of returned data: [String] |
parseServerJSONResponse (json:) | The method returns the result of converting JSON string into a dictionary. Type of returned data: [String: Any]? |
getResponseStatus (from:) | The method returns value for the "status" key from JSON result of the query. Type of returned data: String? |
getTableNamesInDatabase (_: forResource: originalTableName:) | The method returns the array of table names that satisfy the specified parameters: database location in application directory, resource name, searched table name. Type of returned data: [String] |
The HHFWDeltaStream application includes one screen, the UITextView text view, and UIButton buttons:
Perform DeltaStream. Request resource delta.
Perform SELECT. SQL query to local database.
NOTE. When the application is initialized, authentication is executed, the buttons are not available. If the authentication is executed successfully, the buttons are available, and the text box displays the text "Authentication and resources load success".
To execute the example:
Click the Perform DeltaStream button.
Clicking the button requests delta for the specified resource. Query execution result is automatically written to local database.
Click the Perform SELECT button.
Clicking the button executes the SQL query SELECT * FROM table_name to local database.

To get resource delta using an asynchronous request, create the HHFWDeltaStreamAsync application, which uses the framework methods:
Method name | Brief description |
initWithCredentials (_: host: environment: project: device:) | The method initializes the framework |
auth (_: password:) | The method authenticates the user by login and password |
openBase (_: key:) | The method opens connection with database at the specified path |
resources (_: handler:) | The method gets schemes of available resources and automatically creates corresponding tables in the database. |
deltaStreamAsync (_: withCache: deltaStreamCallParams: handler:) | The method loads delta to local database |
getTablesName (_: resourceName: requestParams: tableName:) | The method returns table name in local database |
query (_: query:) | The method sends SQL query to local database. |
Auxiliary methods of asynchronous getting resource delta are identical to auxiliary methods of getting resource delta.
The HHFWDeltaStreamAsync application includes one screen, the UITextView text view, and UIButton buttons:
Perform DeltaStream Async. Asynchronous request of resource delta.
Perform SELECT. SQL query to local database.
NOTE. When the application is initialized, authentication is executed, the buttons are not available. If the authentication is executed successfully, the buttons are available, and the text box displays the text "Authentication and resources load success".
To execute the example:
Click the Perform DeltaStream Async button.
Clicking the button asynchronously requests delta for the specified resource. Query execution result is automatically written to local database.
Click the Perform SELECT button.
Clicking the button executes the SQL query SELECT * FROM table_name to local database.
