Recently I mentioned a tool for migrating your SQLite databases to Core Data, and I’ve mentioned the high level wrapper for working with SQLite databases called FMDB.
Here’s an interesting open source library called FCModel providing an alternative to Core Data for those who like direct access using SQL.
FCModel uses the FMDB wrapper, and automatically maps your SQLite tables to FCModel subclasses for easy access.
In addition there are other methods for easy schema creation, and migration, creating, retrieving and updating the database and more.
You can find FCModel on Github here.
Be sure to look in the FCModel.h file as there are a number of not yet documented features.
