DriftIsolate.fromConnectPort constructor
Creates a DriftIsolate talking to another isolate by using the connectPort.
Internally, drift uses ports from dart:isolate
to send commands to an
internal server dispatching database actions.
In most setups, those ports can send and receive almost any Dart object.
In special cases though, the platform only supports sending simple types
across send types. In particular, isolates across different Flutter
engines (such as the ones spawned by the workmanager
package) are
unable to handle most objects.
To support those setups, drift can serialize its internal communication
channel to only send simple types across isolates. The serialize
parameter, which is enabled by default, controls this behavior.
In most scenarios, serialize can be disabled for a considerable performance improvement.
Implementation
DriftIsolate.fromConnectPort(this.connectPort, {this.serialize = true});
