Extending NKIssue - NewsStandKit (iOS)

Question

I'm developing a new magazine app using NewsStandKit and I need to extend NKIssue because my issues have more properties. But i don't know how to do that and store these new properties at the NewsStand content library. I searched in Google, StackOverflow, etc. this question but I didn't find anything. Can anyone tell me how to do that or another solution for my problem?

Thanks in advance!

You don't store data directly on the NKIssue object itself. NKIssue has a contentURL property that is unique for each issue, and points to a writable path that you can use to store your content. How you store it (plist, sqlite db, flat files) is up to you.

You could subclass or add a category on NKIssue to make accessing your app-specific properties easier, but it's still up to you to determine how they are stored on disk.
