Querying a column in Parse - ios

Question

I have an iOS app that allows users to save GeoPoints to a Parse.com database table. Its a Google Maps app that lets users submit Lat/Long coordinates that will be displayed on the map once the Points have been approved by an admin type person.
I created a table called Point on Parse.com to save this information and the table has the following fields in addition the default ones that are created for you:
approved (String)
point (GeoPoints)
When a new row in the table is created (new Point is submitted by a user), "approved" is always set to "0" and "point" will contain the Lat/Long of a point that has been uploaded.
Once the "point" has been approved by an admin, "approved" is set to "1".
I query the table to display all the GeoPoints that have been approved (set to "1").
I can get all the rows that has been set to "1" but I dont know how to access the "point" field. I need to get the "point" for each row to display it to a map.
Here is what I have to query the table for all Points where "approved" is set to "1"
// Query the Database to get Points
PFQuery *query = [PFQuery queryWithClassName:#"Point"];
[query whereKey:#"approved" equalTo:#"0"];
[query findObjectsInBackgroundWithBlock:^(NSArray *objects, NSError *error)
{
if (!error)
{
// The find was successful
NSLog(#"Successfully Retrieved %d Number of Points", objects.count);
// Display the found Points as Markers
for (PFObject *object in objects)
{
NSLog(#"%#", object.objectId);
// Tried to do this but does not work
NSLog(#"%#", object.point);
}
}
else
{
// Show errors
NSLog(#"Error: %# %#", error, [error userInfo]);
}
}];
I tried the following once I had an array of the objects but this does not work.
// Tried to do this but does not work
NSLog(#"%#", object.point);
Can anyone please help?

Answer 1

I think what you want is:
PFGeoPoint *point = object[#"point"];
Refer to the PFGeoPoint class reference for more information.

You can also go with subclassing for ease of use. Refer to iOS Guide Subclassing. Don't forget to register the subclass in your AppDelegate.
//Point.h
#import "Parse/Parse.h"
#interface Point : PFObject <PFSubclassing>
#property (nonatomic) BOOL approved;
#property (nonatomic, strong) PFGeoPoint *geoPoint;
+ (void)findApprovedPointsWithBlock:(PFArrayResultBlock)resultBlock;
#end
//Point.m
#import "Point.h"
#import <Parse/PFObject+Subclass.h>
#implementation Point
#dynamic approved;
#dynamic geoPoint;
+ (NSString *)parseClassName {
return #"Point";
}
+ (void)findApprovedPointsWithBlock:(PFArrayResultBlock)resultBlock {
PFQuery *query = [PFQuery queryWithClassName:#"Point"];
[query whereKey:#"approved" equalTo:#YES];
[query findObjectsInBackgroundWithBlock:^(NSArray *points, NSError *error) {
resultBlock(points, error);
}];
}
#end
// Somewhere in your code
[Point findApprovedPointsWithBlock:^(NSArray *objects, NSError *error) {
if (!error) {
for (Point *object in objects) {
NSLog(#"%#", object.objectId);
NSLog(#"%#", object.geoPoint);
}
}
else {
}
}];
