start something after PFQuery is finished

Question

Is there a possibility to do something AFTER a query is done? I have a PFQuery that queries objects, the objectIds of these objects will be apendet to an Array. materUserObjects is an PFUser, MatesIdsAndNames is a dictionary, the rest are String `func queryNow(){

    if mateUserObject.isEmpty == false{

        for mateId in mateUserObject{



            let date = NSDate()
            let dateInt = date.timeIntervalSince1970

            let query = PFQuery(className: "calendarEvents")
            query.whereKey("createdBy", equalTo: mateId)
            query.whereKey("StartDate", lessThan: dateInt)
            query.whereKey("EndDate", greaterThan: dateInt)
            query.cachePolicy = .NetworkOnly
            query.findObjectsInBackgroundWithBlock({ (objects:[PFObject]?, error:NSError?) -> Void in

                if error != nil{
                    print(error)
                }else{

                    if objects?.isEmpty == true{
                        self.freeMateIds.append(mateId.objectId!)
                        print(self.freeMateIds)
                        if self.mateUserObject.last == mateId{


                            if self.freeMateIds.isEmpty == false{


                                for freeMate in self.freeMateIds{

                                    let oneFreeMate = self.matesIdsAndNames[freeMate]
                                    self.freeMateNames.append(oneFreeMate!)
                                    print(self.freeMateNames)
                                }

                            }
                            self.MatesTableView.reloadData()

                        }

                    }

                }


            })



        }


    }


}`

Do you use query.findObjectInBackgroundWithBlock? If yes I would suggest you to use a competition handler:

typealias CompletionHandler = (success: Bool) -> Void

//  Ajoute dans le tableau _applications les applications stockées sur Parse
func fetchData(completionHandler: CompletionHandler) {
    let query = PFQuery(className: "Test")
    var supposeObjectCount: Int = 0
    var objectCount: Int  = 0

    //  Ajoute un filtre pour la requete
    query.orderByAscending("Id")

    //  Trouve les objets sur Parse
    query.findObjectsInBackgroundWithBlock { (objects: [PFObject]?, error: NSError?) -> Void in

        //  S'il n'y a pas d'erreur
        if error == nil {

            supposeObjectCount = objects!.count


            if let objects = objects {


                for object in objects {

                    // ..

                    if(supposeObjectCount == ++objectCount) {
                        completionHandler(success: true)
                    }
                }

            }
        }

        else {
            print("Error")
        }
    }
}



//  Call the function

func test() {
    fetchData({ (success) -> Void in


        if success {
            //  Executed when query is completed
        }
    })
}

Hope this help!

start something after PFQuery is finished
