1. Add to pubspec.yaml #

dependencies:
  isar: 0.4.0
  isar_flutter_libs: 0.4.0 # contains the binaries
  isar_connect: 0.4.0 # if you want to use the Isar Inspector

dev_dependencies:
  isar_generator: 0.4.0
  build_runner: any

2. Define a Collection #

@Collection()
class Post {
  int? id; // auto increment id

  @Index(indexType: IndexType.words) // Search index
  String title;

  Links<Comment> comments; // Link to other collection
}

3. Open an instance #

final isar = await openIsar();

Isar Inspector #

The Isar Inspector allows you to inspect the Isar instances & collections of your app in real time. You can execute queries, switch between instances and sort the data.

CRUD operations #

All basic crud operations are available via the IsarCollection.

final newPost = Post()
  ..title = 'Amazing new database'
  ..comments = ['First'];

await isar.writeTxn((isar) {
  await isar.posts.put(newPost); // insert
});

final existingPost = await isar.get(newPost.id!); // get

await isar.writeTxn((isar) {
  await isar.posts.delete(existingPost.id!); // delete
});

Queries #

Isar has a powerful query language that allows you to make use of your indexes, filter distinct objects, use complex and() and or() groups and sort the results.

final isar = await openIsar();

final databasePosts = isar.posts
  .where()
  .titleWordBeginsWith('DaTAb') // use case insensitive search index
  .limit(10)
  .findAll()

final postsWithFirstCommentOrTitle = isar.posts
  .where()
  .filter()
  .commentsAnyEqualTo('first', caseSensitive: false)
  .or()
  .titleEqualTo('first')
  .findAll();

You can easily define relationships between objects. In Isar they are called links and backlinks:

@IsarCollection()
class Teacher {
    int? id;

    String subject;

    @Backlink(to: 'teacher')
    final students = IsarLinks<Student>();
}

@IsarCollection()
class Student {
    int? id;

    String name;

    final teacher = IsarLink<Teacher>();
}

Watchers #

With Isar, you can watch Collections, Objects, or Queries. A watcher is notified after a transaction commits successfully and the target actually changes. Watchers can be lazy and not reload the data or they can be non-lazy and fetch new results in the background.

Stream<void> collectionStream = isar.posts.watch(lazy: true);

Stream<List<Post>> queryStream = databasePosts.watch(lazy: false);

queryStream.listen((newResult) {
  // do UI updates
})
