sql_engine 2.0.6

A thin yet powerful SQLite layer for Dart & Flutter.

2.0.6 – 2025-08-09

Updated

• dependencies are updated

2.0.5 – 2025-07-05

Added

• Binary Serialization Helpers (toBytes / fromBytes)
  Every generated model now includes a zero‑allocation binary codec:

  final bytes = user.toBytes();          // → Uint8List
  final user2 = UserBinary.fromBytes(bytes);
  

  • Column order follows the latest @SqlSchema.
  • Little‑endian layout with compact variable‑length encoding for String and BLOB.
  • Nullable columns use a one‑byte presence flag (0 / 1).
  • Fully type‑safe – DateTime stored as int64 milliseconds, bool as 0/1.
  • Thorough test‑suite (test/binary_codec_test.dart) covers:
    • Round‑trip of all field types
    • Nullable vs non‑nullable columns
    • Edge‑cases: empty strings/blobs, max/min numeric values, very long payloads.

  Example

  final order = Order(
    id: 9,
    customerId: 42,
    orderDate: DateTime.utc(2025, 7, 1, 18),
    total: 123.45,
  );
  
  final data = order.toBytes();          // serialize
  final copy = OrderBinary.fromBytes(data);
  
  assert(copy.total == 123.45);          // 
  

2.0.4 – 2025-06-29

Added

• Soft Delete Support

  • You can now enable soft deletion using @SqlTable(softDelete: true).

    @SqlTable(tableName: 'users', version: 1, softDelete: true)
    class User { ... }
    

  • When enabled:
    • All deleteById() operations update deleted_at = CURRENT_TIMESTAMP instead of removing rows.
    • All findAll() and findWhere() queries automatically exclude soft-deleted rows by default.
    • Use includeDeleted: true to include them.
    • A new helper restoreById() is generated to restore soft-deleted rows.
  • Supports:
    • Nullable deleted_at column (added automatically if missing)
    • Standard SQLite timestamp
    • Reversible deletes via restoreById()

  Example

  await UserCrudHelpers.deleteById(db, 5); // sets deleted_at
  await UserCrudHelpers.findAll(db); // excludes deleted
  await UserCrudHelpers.findAll(db, includeDeleted: true); // includes deleted
  await UserCrudHelpers.restoreById(db, 5); // restores record
  

  Fully tested under test/soft_delete_test.dart — including restore and manual inspection via raw SQL.

2.0.3 - 2025-06-12

Added

• Initial Seed Data Support
  • @SqlSchema now accepts a seedData field:

    @SqlSchema(
      version: 1,
      columns: [...],
      seedData: [
        {'name': 'Alice', 'male': false},
        {'name': 'Bob', 'male': true},
      ],
    )
    

  • Seed rows are automatically inserted into the table on first creation only.
  • Supports:
    • DateTime (use millisecondsSinceEpoch)
    • bool (stored as 0/1)
    • null values
  • Automatically skipped if the table already exists.
  • Available during db.open() lifecycle — no extra config required.

Example

@SqlSchema(
  version: 1,
  columns: [...],
  seedData: [
    {
      'name': 'Ada',
      'male': true,
      'created_at': DateTime(2024, 1, 1).millisecondsSinceEpoch,
    }
  ],
)

2.0.2 - 2025-06-10

• updated documentation for models

2.0.1 - 2025-06-08

✨ Added

• Strongly-Typed CRUD Code Generation
  New generator methods now create full CRUD extensions for each model/table:

  • insert<Entity>()
  • update<Entity>()
  • upsert<Entity>()
  • delete<Entity>ById()
  • delete<Entity>Where()
  • flush<Entity>s()
  • findAll<Entity>s()
  • find<Entity>sWhere()

  These methods are emitted as extension <Entity>Crud on SqlEngineDatabase, with support for:

  • Named parameter helpers (<Entity>CrudHelpers)
  • Automatic conversion of DateTime → millisecondsSinceEpoch
  • Nullable field safety
  • Strongly-typed model mapping with <Entity>Mapper.fromRow

  Example

  await User.insert(
    db,
    id: 1,
    name: 'Jane Smith',
    male: true,
    createdAt: DateTime.now(),
  );
  
  final users = await User.findWhere(db, 'name = ?', 'Jane Smith');
  

2.0.0 - 2025-06-01

⚠️ Breaking Changes

• SqlColumn.type is now required to be a SqlType enum instead of a string. This improves type safety and autocompletion.

  • Before:

    SqlColumn(name: 'id', type: 'INTEGER')
    

  • After:

    SqlColumn(name: 'id', type: SqlType.integer)
    

• Code generators have been updated to map SqlType to proper SQL keywords in CREATE TABLE, ALTER TABLE, and index creation.

1.0.6 - 2025-05-04

Added

• enableLog parameter to SqlEngineDatabase constructor. This allows consumers of the package to disable or control logging, instead of relying on a global compile-time flag.

  final db = SqlEngineDatabase(enableLog: false);
  

[1.0.5] – 2025‑05‑03

Fixed

• Mapper code‑gen
  • Removed illegal trailing ? in toRow() for nullable fields (e.g. now emits
    'locationLat': locationLat, instead of 'locationLat': locationLat?,).
  • Null‑safe write for DateTime (createdAt?.millisecondsSinceEpoch) and for bool (male == true ? 1 : null).

Added

• @SqlIndex annotation
  • Define one or more indexes per table.

    @SqlIndex(name: 'idx_user_email', columns: ['email'])
    

  • Generator now outputs a createIndexes list inside each *Table class.
  • _onCreate() automatically executes all CREATE INDEX statements after tables are created.

Migration

No breaking API changes. Re‑run build_runner to regenerate code and indexes will be created automatically the next time the database is initialized.

1.0.4 - 2025-05-03

Added

• Introduced @SqlIndex annotation for defining named indexes on tables.
• Generator now reads and embeds indexes as part of the generated table class.
• Database applies all defined indexes automatically during open() on initial creation.
• Added createIndexes override in SqlEngineTable to allow per-table index registration.
• Added test support:
  • Verify index creation using PRAGMA index_list.
  • Verify index usage via EXPLAIN QUERY PLAN.

Tests

• New tests verify:
  • Index is present (PRAGMA index_list)
  • Index is used (EXPLAIN QUERY PLAN … USING INDEX)

Example usage

@SqlTable(tableName: 'users', version: 1)
@SqlIndex(name: 'idx_user_name', columns: ['name'])
class User { ... }

1.0.3

• Fixed analysis error.
• Added license
