Swift - Can I use realm in Notification Service Extension?

As the title, can I use realm in Notification Service Extension ?

When I receive a notification, I need to get some data from realm, then edit notification content before showing to user.

I do below in the Podfile

pod 'RealmSwift'

target 'NotificationServiceExtension' do

  inherit! :search_paths

end

Then I import RealmSwift in NotificationService.swift .

But it seems not working because it doesn't use the same database and can not find the scope I've already created.

Solution

  • Yes it works, you need to create an AppGroup in order to share data between your app & the Extension.
