⚠️ This repository is a fork of the original project, focusing primarily on bug fixes and small updates for version 3. Our objective is to enhance the stability and reliability of the codebase while implementing minor improvements to refine the user experience. See details below on how to use this community fork.

Isar Database

Quickstart β€’ Documentation β€’ Sample Apps β€’ Support & Ideas β€’ Pub.dev

Isar [ee-zahr]:

  1. River in Bavaria, Germany.
  2. Crazy fast NoSQL database that is a joy to use.

Features

  • πŸ’™ Made for Flutter. Easy to use, no config, no boilerplate
  • πŸš€ Highly scalable The sky is the limit (pun intended)
  • 🍭 Feature rich. Composite & multi-entry indexes, query modifiers, JSON support etc.
  • ⏱ Asynchronous. Parallel query operations & multi-isolate support by default
  • πŸ¦„ Open source. Everything is open source and free forever!

Isar database can do much more (and we are just getting started)

  • πŸ•΅οΈ Full-text search. Make searching fast and fun
  • πŸ“± Multiplatform. iOS, Android, Desktop
  • πŸ§ͺ ACID semantics. Rely on database consistency
  • πŸ’ƒ Static typing. Compile-time checked and autocompleted queries
  • ✨ Beautiful documentation. Readable, easy to understand and ever-improving

Join the Telegram group for discussion and sneak peeks of new versions of the DB.

Quickstart

Holy smokes you're here! Let's get started on using the coolest Flutter database out there...

1. Add to pubspec.yaml

isar_version: &isar_version 3.1.8 # define the version to be used

dependencies:
  isar: 
    version: *isar_version
    hosted: https://pub.isar-community.dev/
  isar_flutter_libs: # contains Isar Core
    version: *isar_version
    hosted: https://pub.isar-community.dev/

dev_dependencies:
  isar_generator: 
    version: *isar_version
    hosted: https://pub.isar-community.dev/
  build_runner: any

2. Annotate a Collection

part 'email.g.dart';

@collection
class Email {
  Id id = Isar.autoIncrement; // you can also use id = null to auto increment

  @Index(type: IndexType.value)
  String? title;

  List<Recipient>? recipients;

  @enumerated
  Status status = Status.pending;
}

@embedded
class Recipient {
  String? name;

  String? address;
}

enum Status {
  draft,
  pending,
  sent,
}

3. Open a database instance

final dir = await getApplicationDocumentsDirectory();
final isar = await Isar.open(
  [EmailSchema],
  directory: dir.path,
);

4. Query the database

final emails = await isar.emails.filter()
  .titleContains('awesome', caseSensitive: false)
  .sortByStatusDesc()
  .limit(10)
  .findAll();

Isar Database Inspector

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

To launch the inspector, just run your Isar app in debug mode and open the Inspector link in the logs.

CRUD operations

All basic crud operations are available via the IsarCollection.

final newEmail = Email()..title = 'Amazing new database';

await isar.writeTxn(() {
  await isar.emails.put(newEmail); // insert & update
});

final existingEmail = await isar.emails.get(newEmail.id!); // get

await isar.writeTxn(() {
  await isar.emails.delete(existingEmail.id!); // delete
});

Database Queries

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

final importantEmails = isar.emails
  .where()
  .titleStartsWith('Important') // use index
  .limit(10)
  .findAll()

final specificEmails = isar.emails
  .filter()
  .recipient((q) => q.nameEqualTo('David')) // query embedded objects
  .or()
  .titleMatches('*university*', caseSensitive: false) // title containing 'university' (case insensitive)
  .findAll()

Database Watchers

With Isar database, 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.emails.watchLazy();

Stream<List<Post>> queryStream = importantEmails.watch();

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

Benchmarks

Benchmarks only give a rough idea of the performance of a database but as you can see, Isar NoSQL database is quite fast πŸ˜‡

If you are interested in more benchmarks or want to check how Isar performs on your device you can run the benchmarks yourself.

Unit tests

If you want to use Isar database in unit tests or Dart code, call await Isar.initializeIsarCore(download: true) before using Isar in your tests.

Isar NoSQL database will automatically download the correct binary for your platform. You can also pass a libraries map to adjust the download location for each platform.

Make sure to use flutter test -j 1 to avoid tests running in parallel. This would break the automatic download.
