philiprehberger_sync_engine

Offline-first data sync with conflict resolution, retry queues, and local caching

Requirements

• Dart >= 3.5

Installation

Add to your pubspec.yaml:

dependencies:
  philiprehberger_sync_engine: ^0.2.0

Then run:

dart pub get

Usage

import 'package:philiprehberger_sync_engine/sync_engine.dart';

final store = LocalStore();
final resolver = ConflictResolver(strategy: ConflictStrategy.latestWins);
final engine = SyncEngine(store: store, resolver: resolver);

Adding Records

store.put(SyncRecord(
  id: 'user-1',
  data: {'name': 'Alice', 'email': '[e-mail]'},
  updatedAt: DateTime.now(),
));

Running a Sync

final result = await engine.sync(
  push: (records) async {
    // Send records to your API, return ids of successfully pushed records
    final response = await api.push(records);
    return response.successIds;
  },
  pull: () async {
    // Fetch records from your API
    return await api.fetchAll();
  },
);

print('Pushed: ${result.pushed}, Pulled: ${result.pulled}');

Conflict Resolution

// Remote always wins
final resolver = ConflictResolver(strategy: ConflictStrategy.remoteWins);

// Local always wins
final resolver = ConflictResolver(strategy: ConflictStrategy.localWins);

// Latest timestamp wins
final resolver = ConflictResolver(strategy: ConflictStrategy.latestWins);

// Custom logic
final resolver = ConflictResolver(
  strategy: ConflictStrategy.custom,
  customResolver: (local, remote) => remote.version > local.version ? remote : local,
);

Progress Tracking

await engine.sync(
  push: pushFn,
  pull: pullFn,
  onProgress: (completed, total) {
    print('$completed / $total');
  },
);

Tagging Records

store.put(SyncRecord(
  id: 'user-1',
  data: {'name': 'Alice'},
  updatedAt: DateTime.now(),
  tags: {'user', 'priority'},
));

// Query by tag
final userRecords = store.queryByTag('user');

// Update tags on an existing record
final updated = record.withTags({'user', 'priority', 'reviewed'});
store.put(updated);

Selective Sync

// Only push records tagged with 'priority'
final result = await engine.syncWhere(
  (record) => record.tags.contains('priority'),
  push: (records) async {
    final response = await api.push(records);
    return response.successIds;
  },
  pull: () async => await api.fetchAll(),
);

Exponential Backoff

final retryQueue = RetryQueue(
  maxAttempts: 5,
  backoffBase: Duration(seconds: 1),
  backoffMultiplier: 2.0,
);

// Calculate delay for a given attempt
final delay = retryQueue.nextDelay(2); // 4 seconds (1 * 2^2)

Sync Metadata

await engine.sync(push: pushFn, pull: pullFn);

final meta = engine.metadata;
print('Last sync: ${meta.lastSyncAt}');
print('Duration: ${meta.lastDuration}');
print('Total pushes: ${meta.totalPushes}');
print('Total pulls: ${meta.totalPulls}');
print('Total conflicts: ${meta.totalConflicts}');

// Serialize for persistence
final json = meta.toJson();
final restored = SyncMetadata.fromJson(json);

Querying Records

final active = store.query(where: (r) => r.status == SyncStatus.synced);
final stats = store.statistics();
print('Total: ${stats.total}, Synced: ${stats.synced}');
