I want to be able to have my CoreData persistent store in a folder which is a package. The idea is I want the app data to be able to be opened, saved, or copied by the user as a single file (think .pages, .numbers, etc) as opposed to having to dig through ~/library/Application Support/app-name/... to get the three SQLLite files and move them someplace.

Can anyone say if this is even possible? So far all my attempts to figure this out have ended in CoreData throwing error during initialization of the Persistent Store.

The problem I am having is trying to telling PersistentContainer that the store should be inside the package instead of a folder.

Suggestions?

If this isn't possible (seems like it should be) then I will need to change my design to use a Document store instead, but I would like to stay with coredata if possible.
