I get this Error -> Thread 1: EXC_BAD_INSTRUCTION (code=EXC_I386_INVOP, subcode=0x0)
randomly. I don’t quite understand when exactly it happens. Most of the times it is when the view refreshes. The Error appears at the line where group.leave()
gets executed.
What am I trying to do:
I want to fetch albums with their image, name and songs that also have a name and image from my firebase database. I checked for the values and they’re all right as far as I can tell. But when trying to show them it is random what shows. Sometimes everything is right, sometimes one album gets showed twice, sometimes only one album gets showed at all, sometimes one album has the songs of the other album.
My firebase database has albums stored as documents, each document has albumimage/name and 2 subcollections of "unlocked" with documents(user uid) that store "locked":Bool and "songs" with a document for each song that stores image/name
This is the function that fetches my albums with their songs:
let group = DispatchGroup()
@State var albums: [Album] = []
@State var albumSongs: [AlbumSong] = []
func fetchAlbums() {
FirebaseManager.shared.firestore.collection("albums").getDocuments { querySnapshot, error in
if let error = error {
print(error.localizedDescription)
return
}
guard let documents = querySnapshot?.documents else {
return
}
let uid = FirebaseManager.shared.auth.currentUser?.uid
documents.forEach { document in
let data = document.data()
let name = data["name"] as? String ?? ""
let artist = data["artist"] as? String ?? ""
let releaseDate = data["releaseDate"] as? Date ?? Date()
let price = data["price"] as? Int ?? 0
let albumImageUrl = data["albumImageUrl"] as? String ?? ""
let docID = document.documentID
FirebaseManager.shared.firestore.collection("albums").document(docID)
.collection("songs").getDocuments { querySnapshot, error in
if let error = error {
return
}
guard let documents = querySnapshot?.documents else {
return
}
self.albumSongs = documents.compactMap { document -> AlbumSong? in
do {
return try document.data(as: AlbumSong.self)
} catch {
return nil
}
}
group.leave()
}
FirebaseManager.shared.firestore.collection("albums").document(docID)
.collection("unlocked").document(uid ?? "").getDocument { docSnapshot, error in
if let error = error {
return
}
guard let document = docSnapshot?.data() else {
return
}
group.enter()
group.notify(queue: DispatchQueue.global()) {
if document["locked"] as! Bool == true {
self.albums.append(Album(name: name, artist: artist,
songs: albumSongs, releaseDate: releaseDate, price: price, albumImageUrl: albumImageUrl))
print("albums: ",albums)
}
}
}
}
}
}
I call my fetchAlbums()
in my view .onAppear()
My AlbumSong:
struct AlbumSong: Identifiable, Codable {
@DocumentID var id: String? = UUID().uuidString
let title: String
let duration: TimeInterval
var image: String
let artist: String
let track: String
}
My Album:
struct Album: Identifiable, Codable {
@DocumentID var id: String? = UUID().uuidString
let name: String
let artist: String
let songs: [AlbumSong]
let releaseDate: Date
let price: Int
let albumImageUrl: String
}
I tried looking into how to fetch data from firebase with async function but I couldn’t get my code to work and using dispatchGroup worked fine when I only have one album. I would appreciate answers explaining how this code would work with async, I really tried my best figuring it out by myself a long time. Also I would love to know what exactly is happening with DispatchGroup and why it works fine having one album but not with multiple ones.

Just use them in the correct order:
I think you are over complicating something that is very simple with
async await
First, your Models need some adjusting, it may be the source of some of your issues.
Then you can create a service that does the heavy lifting with the Firestore.
Then you can implement it with just a few lines in your presentation layer.
If you get any decoding errors make the variables optional by adding the question mark to the type like I did with the array.
