SqliteMagic

Simple yet powerful SQLite database layer for Android that makes database handling feel like magic.

Overview:

Simple, intuitive & typesafe API
Minimal setup needed
Built in RxJava support with reactive stream semantics on queries and operations
Built in AutoValue immutable objects support
Built in kotlin support
Full support for complex columns
Support for SQLite views
Persist any third party object with fully customizable object transformers
Support for migrations
No reflection
Compile time annotation processing
Probably the fastest library for Android SQLite database operations (without memory caching)

Getting Started

Install IntelliJ Plugin (for non-kotlin project):

The Intellij plugin can be installed from Android Studio by navigating Android Studio -> Preferences -> Plugins -> Browse repositories -> Search for SqliteMagic

Add SqliteMagic to Project:

buildscript {
  repositories {
    jcenter()
  }
  dependencies {
    classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:<latest version>'
    classpath 'com.siimkinks.sqlitemagic:sqlitemagic-plugin:0.25.1'
  }
}

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
apply plugin: 'com.siimkinks.sqlitemagic'

Initialize Library:

SqliteMagic.builder(applicationContext)
    .sqliteFactory(new FrameworkSQLiteOpenHelperFactory())
    .openDefaultConnection();

Note: any place with a reference to Application context is ok to use for initialization, but it must happen before a database is accessed. During initialization default db connection is opened, db schema is created and migration scripts are executed - no other hidden runtime performance costs.

Define Database:

Note that there is no need to extend or implement any base classes or interfaces

POJO	AutoValue
```java @Table(persistAll = true) public class Author { @Id(autoIncrement = false) long id; String firstName; String lastName; ... } @Table(persistAll = true) public class Book { @Id(autoIncrement = false) long id(); String title; Author author; ... } ```	```java @Table(persistAll = true) @AutoValue public abstract class Author { @Id(autoIncrement = false) public abstract long id(); public abstract String firstName(); public abstract String lastName(); ... } @Table(persistAll = true) @AutoValue public abstract class Book { @Id(autoIncrement = false) public abstract long id(); public abstract String title(); public abstract Author author(); ... } ```
Kotlin
```kotlin @Table(persistAll = true, useAccessMethods = true) data class Author( @Id(autoIncrement = false) val id: Long, val firstName: String, val lastName: String ) @Table(persistAll = true, useAccessMethods = true) data class Book( @Id(autoIncrement = false) val id: Long, val title: String, val author: Author ) ```

Database operation builder methods for Java are "automagically" generated during compile time on objects with @Table annotation using bytecode manipulation and AST transformations. These methods may seem like "magic", but actually they are only glue methods that call corresponding table generated class methods. This way one can still see human readable code during debugging - just press "step into" when magic method is encountered.

For kotlin, database operation builder methods are generated as extensions functions.

Do Operations With Objects:

Synchronous	RxJava
```java Author author = new Author(73, "Foo", "Bar"); Book book = new Book(77, "Bar", author); // insert -- NOTE: author object also gets // inserted and the whole operation // is wrapped in transaction long id = book .insert() .execute(); // update boolean success = author .update() .execute(); // update or insert id = author .persist() .execute(); // update or insert but ignore null values id = author .persist() .ignoreNullValues() .execute(); // delete int nrOfDeletedRows = author .delete() .execute(); // Bulk operations are also supported success = Author .persist(someAuthors) .ignoreNullValues() .execute(); ```	```java Author author = new Author(73, "Foo", "Bar"); Book book = new Book(77, "Bar", author); // insert -- NOTE: author object also gets // inserted and the whole operation is // wrapped in transaction when result // object gets subscribed Single insert = book .insert() .observe(); // update Completable update = author .update() .observe(); // update or insert Single persist = author .persist() .observe(); // update or insert but ignore null values persist = author .persist() .ignoreNullValues() .observe(); // delete Single delete = author .delete() .observe(); // Bulk operations are also supported Completable bulkPersist = Author .persist(someAuthors) .ignoreNullValues() .observe(); ```

Synchronous

RxJava

```java Author author = new Author(73, "Foo", "Bar"); Book book = new Book(77, "Bar", author); // insert -- NOTE: author object also gets // inserted and the whole operation // is wrapped in transaction long id = book .insert() .execute(); // update boolean success = author .update() .execute(); // update or insert id = author .persist() .execute(); // update or insert but ignore null values id = author .persist() .ignoreNullValues() .execute(); // delete int nrOfDeletedRows = author .delete() .execute(); // Bulk operations are also supported success = Author .persist(someAuthors) .ignoreNullValues() .execute(); ```

```java Author author = new Author(73, "Foo", "Bar"); Book book = new Book(77, "Bar", author); // insert -- NOTE: author object also gets // inserted and the whole operation is // wrapped in transaction when result // object gets subscribed Single insert = book .insert() .observe(); // update Completable update = author .update() .observe(); // update or insert Single persist = author .persist() .observe(); // update or insert but ignore null values persist = author .persist() .ignoreNullValues() .observe(); // delete Single delete = author .delete() .observe(); // Bulk operations are also supported Completable bulkPersist = Author .persist(someAuthors) .ignoreNullValues() .observe(); ```

(All database operations trigger RxJava notifications on active queries that listen to table that is being modified)

Use Typesafe Operation Builders:

Synchronous	RxJava
```java import static com.siimkinks.sqlitemagic .BookTable.BOOK; ... int nrOfUpdatedRows = Update .table(BOOK) .set(BOOK.TITLE, "Foo") .where(BOOK.ID.is(77L)) .execute(); int nrOfDeletedRows = Delete .from(BOOK) .where(BOOK.ID.isNot(77L) .and(BOOK.TITLE.is("Foo"))) .execute(); ```	```java import static com.siimkinks.sqlitemagic .BookTable.BOOK; ... Single update = Update .table(BOOK) .set(BOOK.TITLE, "Foo") .where(BOOK.ID.is(77L)) .observe(); Single delete = Delete .from(BOOK) .where(BOOK.ID.isNot(77L) .and(BOOK.TITLE.is("Foo"))) .observe(); ```

Query Data:

SqliteMagic ships with its own DSL (or Domain Specific Language) that emulates SQL in Java (inspired by JOOQ).

Synchronous	RxJava
```java import static com.siimkinks.sqlitemagic .AuthorTable.AUTHOR; ... List authors = Select .from(AUTHOR) .where(AUTHOR.FIRST_NAME.like("Foo%") .and(AUTHOR.LAST_NAME.isNot("Bar"))) .orderBy(AUTHOR.LAST_NAME.desc()) .limit(10) .execute(); ```	```java import static com.siimkinks.sqlitemagic .AuthorTable.AUTHOR; ... // QueryObservable is an rx.Observable of Query // which offers query-specific convenience // operators. QueryObservable> observable = Select .from(AUTHOR) .where(AUTHOR.FIRST_NAME.like("Foo%") .and(AUTHOR.LAST_NAME.isNot("Bar"))) .orderBy(AUTHOR.LAST_NAME.desc()) .limit(10) .observe(); ```

Query Complex Data:

Synchronous	RxJava
```java import static com.siimkinks.sqlitemagic .AuthorTable.AUTHOR; import static com.siimkinks.sqlitemagic .BookTable.BOOK; ... // the resulting Book objects also contain // Author objects List books = Select .from(BOOK) .where(BOOK.TITLE.is("Bar") .and(AUTHOR.is(someAuthorObject))) .orderBy(AUTHOR.LAST_NAME.asc()) .limit(10) // this tells to query all complex data // which is queried in a single // SELECT statement .queryDeep() .execute(); ```	```java import static com.siimkinks.sqlitemagic .AuthorTable.AUTHOR; import static com.siimkinks.sqlitemagic .BookTable.BOOK; ... // the resulting Book objects also contain // Author objects QueryObservable> observable = Select .from(BOOK) .where(BOOK.TITLE.is("Bar") .and(AUTHOR.is(someAuthorObject))) .orderBy(AUTHOR.LAST_NAME.asc()) .limit(10) // this tells to query all complex data // which is queried in a single // SELECT statement .queryDeep() .observe(); ```

Synchronous

RxJava

```java import static com.siimkinks.sqlitemagic .AuthorTable.AUTHOR; import static com.siimkinks.sqlitemagic .BookTable.BOOK; ... // the resulting Book objects also contain // Author objects List books = Select .from(BOOK) .where(BOOK.TITLE.is("Bar") .and(AUTHOR.is(someAuthorObject))) .orderBy(AUTHOR.LAST_NAME.asc()) .limit(10) // this tells to query all complex data // which is queried in a single // SELECT statement .queryDeep() .execute(); ```

```java import static com.siimkinks.sqlitemagic .AuthorTable.AUTHOR; import static com.siimkinks.sqlitemagic .BookTable.BOOK; ... // the resulting Book objects also contain // Author objects QueryObservable> observable = Select .from(BOOK) .where(BOOK.TITLE.is("Bar") .and(AUTHOR.is(someAuthorObject))) .orderBy(AUTHOR.LAST_NAME.asc()) .limit(10) // this tells to query all complex data // which is queried in a single // SELECT statement .queryDeep() .observe(); ```

There is so much more to querying data like SQL functions, views, more type safety, selecting columns, querying only the first result, counting, RxJava convenience operators, etc. Take a deeper look at the wiki.
