Can I still use xcdatamodel core data model relationships with Restkit?

As I understand it RestKit provides integration with Apple’s Core Data framework, making and populating Core Data associations for you, allowing natural property based traversal of your data model.

However, I am unsure if I can still use xcdatamodel with RestKit, and cannot find any references, tutorials on whether RestKit can use xcdatamodel (Core data modelling tool) or not.

My prototype app is a company structure app; ie:

Company -< Departme开发者_C百科nts -< Employees
Company -< Suppliers
..etc

In addition, I have set up some simple Fetched Properties/Templates to gather specific data; however I am unsure if I start using RestKit whether I can still use these tools/techniques via xcdatamodel, or rather I will have to code them manually.

My question therefore is, can I still model my complex app/data using xcdatamodel, complete with the fetched properties, etc and then make RestKit talk to it; and if so, can someone help point to a tutorial site about this?

Thanks.

Yes, you can use xcdatamodel. Look at RKCatalog example app - RKCoreDataExample uses it without any problems.

You can also use mogenerator tool. Where in "machine" files will be all the CoreData mechanics, and in "humain" files will be configuration of RestKit-related stuff.
