Pass parse.com cloud backend data from TableView to DetailViewController

Question

I have a problem with my parse backend app.

On Parse I have a Class like this: name (string) , imageFile (File) and help (string).

Everything works great except the Images. When I tap on a cell, I am pushed to the DetailViewController the 2 Strings appear but the ImageView (PFImageView) is empty. The ImageView does not show my Images. Maybe there is a problem with passing the image file?

Here is my code:

MechanikViewController.h:

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#import <Parse/Parse.h>

@interface MechanikViewController : PFQueryTableViewController

@end

MechanikViewController.m:

#import "MechanikViewController.h"
#import "MechanikDetailViewController.h"
#import "Mechanik.h"

@interface MechanikViewController ()

@end

@implementation MechanikViewController

{
    self = [super initWithNibName:nibNameOrNil bundle:nibBundleOrNil];
    if (self) {
        // Custom initialization
    }
    return self;
}

-(id)initWithCoder:(NSCoder *)aCoder
{
    self = [super initWithCoder:aCoder];
    if (self) {
        self.parseClassName = @"Mechanik";

        self.textKey = @"name";

        self.pullToRefreshEnabled = YES;

        self.paginationEnabled = NO;
    }
    return self;
}

{
    [super viewDidLoad];
    // Do any additional setup after loading the view.

}

-(PFQuery *)queryForTable
{
    PFQuery *query = [PFQuery queryWithClassName:self.parseClassName];

    if ([self.objects count] == 0) {
    query.cachePolicy = kPFCachePolicyCacheThenNetwork;
    }
    [query orderByAscending:@"name"];

    return query;
}

-(UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath object:(PFObject *)object
{
    static NSString *simpleTableIdentifier = @"MechanikCell";

    UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:simpleTableIdentifier];

    if (cell == nil) {
        cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:simpleTableIdentifier];
    }

    cell.textLabel.text = [object objectForKey:@"name"];

    return cell;
}

- (void) objectsDidLoad:(NSError *)error
{
    [super objectsDidLoad:error];

    NSLog(@"error: %@", [error localizedDescription]);
}

    if ([segue.identifier isEqualToString:@"showDetail"]) {
        NSIndexPath *indexPath = [self.tableView indexPathForSelectedRow];

        PFObject *object = [self.objects objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];

        mechanik.name = [object objectForKey:@"name"];
        mechanik.imageFile = [object objectForKey:@"imageFile"];
        mechanik.help = [object objectForKey:@"help"];


        destViewController.mechanik = mechanik;
    }
}

Please help me.

• Create a PFObject in DetailViewController

  @property (nonatomic, strong)PFObject *object
  

• Pass a PFObject from master to detail

  PFObject *object = [self.objects objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
  destViewController.object = object;
  

• Set data in ViewDidAppear

  pfImageView.imageFile = [object objectForKey:@"imageFile"];
  [pfImageView loadInBackground];
