updateWholeObject method

Future<bool> updateWholeObject(Object newObject, List<String> whereColumns, List<Object> values, { String whereMcop = 'AND', })

Updates every column of an entity instance except the primary key.

Example:

final ok = await DataAccess.instance.updateWholeObject(
  Person(18, 'M2Sir'),
  ['name'],
  ['Alpha'],
);

Implementation

Future<bool> updateWholeObject(
  Object newObject,
  List<String> whereColumns,
  List<Object> values, {
  String whereMcop = 'AND',
}) async {
  int affected = 0;
  await (await db).transaction((txn) async {
    try {
      affected = await txn.update(
        newObject.runtimeType.toString(),
        mapToUse((newObject as dynamic).toMap() as Map<String, dynamic>),
        where: _preparedColumns(whereColumns, whereMcop),
        whereArgs: _checkForBoolAndDateTime(values),
      );
    } catch (e, s) {
      debugPrint('updateWholeObject failed: $e\n$s');
    }
  });
  return affected > 0;
}
