Automatically generate a ContentProvider backed by an SQLite database.
First create a class that contains the columns of a database table.
public interface ListColumns {
@DataType(INTEGER) @PrimaryKey @AutoIncrement String _ID = "_id";
@DataType(TEXT) @NotNull String TITLE = "title";
}Then create a database that uses this column
@Database(version = NotesDatabase.VERSION)
public final class NotesDatabase {
public static final int VERSION = 1;
@Table(ListColumns.class) public static final String LISTS = "lists";
}And finally define a ContentProvider
@ContentProvider(authority = NotesProvider.AUTHORITY, database = NotesDatabase.class)
public final class NotesProvider {
public static final String AUTHORITY = "net.simonvt.schematic.sample.NotesProvider";
@TableEndpoint(table = NotesDatabase.LISTS) public static class Lists {
@ContentUri(
path = "lists",
type = "vnd.android.cursor.dir/list",
defaultSort = ListColumns.TITLE + " ASC")
public static final Uri LISTS = Uri.parse("content://" + AUTHORITY + "/lists");
}@AutoIncrement
@DataType
@DefaultValue
@NotNull
@PrimaryKey
@References
@UniqueThe @ContentUri annotation is used when the Uri does not change.
@ContentUri(
path = "lists",
type = "vnd.android.cursor.dir/list",
defaultSort = ListColumns.TITLE + " ASC")
public static final Uri LISTS = Uri.parse("content://" + AUTHORITY + "/lists");If the Uri is created based on some value, e.g. an id, @InexactContentUri is used.
@InexactContentUri(
path = Path.LISTS + "/#",
name = "LIST_ID",
type = "vnd.android.cursor.item/list",
whereColumn = ListColumns._ID,
pathSegment = 1)
public static Uri withId(long id) {
return Uri.parse("content://" + AUTHORITY + "/lists/" + id);
}dependencies {
annotationProcessor 'net.simonvt.schematic:schematic-compiler:{latest-version}'
compile 'net.simonvt.schematic:schematic:{latest-version}'
