Update progress with MRProgress

Question

I'm looking for help with trying to update a progress indicator using the MRProgress framework. I was able to set up the progress indicator, but I have no idea how to calculate and update its progress. I'm using CloudKit and trying to show the progress when saving a CKRecord. Could someone provide me some direction? Thanks in advance!

self.hud = [MRProgressOverlayView showOverlayAddedTo:self.myCollectionView animated:YES];
self.hud.mode = MRProgressOverlayViewModeDeterminateCircular;
self.hud.titleLabelText = @"Uploading...";

// prepare the CKRecord and save it
[self.ckManager saveRecord:[self.ckManager createCKRecordForImage:self.imageDataAddedFromCamera] withCompletionHandler:^(CKRecord *record, NSError *error) {
      if (!error && record) {
             NSLog(@"INFO: Record saved successfully for recordID: %@", record.recordID.recordName);
             // need to get the recordID of the just saved record before adding the CID to the CIDArray
             self.imageDataAddedFromCamera.recordID = record.recordID.recordName;
             [self.imageLoadManager addCIDForNewUserImage:self.imageDataAddedFromCamera]; // update the model with the new image
             // update number of items since array set has increased from new photo taken
             self.numberOfItemsInSection = [self.imageLoadManager.imageDataArray count];
             //[MRProgressOverlayView dismissAllOverlaysForView:self.view animated:YES];
             [self.hud dismiss:YES];
             [self.hud removeFromSuperview];
      } else {
             NSLog(@"ERROR: Error saving record to cloud...%@", error.localizedDescription);
             [self alertWithTitle:@"Yikes!" andMessage:@"We encountered an issue trying to upload your photo to the cloud."];
            }
}];

Update: Converted cloudkit methods from convenience API to CKOperations in my CKManager class. I can see the progress updating through logging, but I don't see how to get it back to the viewcontroller. If I were to add it to the completion handler, wouldn't that only send it back once everything is completed? Here's my updated code...

CKManager.h - (void)saveRecord:(NSArray *)records withCompletionHandler:(void (^)(NSArray *records))completionHandler;

CKManager.m - (void)saveRecord:(NSArray *)records withCompletionHandler:(void (^)(NSArray *))completionHandler {

NSLog(@"INFO: Entered saveRecord...");
CKModifyRecordsOperation *saveOperation = [[CKModifyRecordsOperation alloc] initWithRecordsToSave:records recordIDsToDelete:nil];

saveOperation.perRecordProgressBlock = ^(CKRecord *record, double progress) {
    if (progress <= 1) {
        NSLog(@"Save progress is: %f", progress);
    }
};

saveOperation.completionBlock = ^ {
    NSLog(@"Save operation completed!");
    completionHandler(records);
};

[self.publicDatabase addOperation:saveOperation];

}

if you want to show the progress of an operation, then you have to use the CKModifyRecordsOperation and use perRecordProgressBlock method.
