Database Functions and Triggers Support

The generator now includes support for PostgreSQL functions and triggers:

Database Functions

• 🔄 Automatically generates Dart wrappers for all database functions
• 🎯 Type-safe parameters and return values
• 📝 Includes documentation from database comments
• 🧩 Accessible through the repository provider

Example usage:

// Access a database function
final result = await repositoryProvider.databaseFunctions.calculateTotal(userId: 123);

Database Triggers

• 📝 Generates documentation for all database triggers
• 🔍 Includes trigger definitions for reference
• 📚 Helps understand automatic database behaviors

This feature allows you to:

1. Test database functions directly in PostgreSQL first
2. Then use those tested functions from your Dart code
3. Have documentation about triggers for context
4. Reduce runtime errors by ensuring database functions work before using them in code

Model Features

The generated models include:

• 🔄 JSON serialization with json_annotation
• 🎯 Dart naming conventions (camelCase) with original database names preserved
• 📝 Documentation comments for all fields
• 🔄 copyWith() method for immutability
• 📝 toString() method for debugging
• 🔒 Type-safe field access

Repository Features

The generated repositories include:

• 🧩 Complete CRUD operations
• 🔄 Real-time subscriptions with Supabase
• 🔒 Type-safe query methods
• 📝 Documentation comments

Next Steps After Generation

1. Add required dependencies to your pubspec.yaml:

dependencies:
  supabase_flutter: ^1.10.0
  json_annotation: ^4.8.1

dev_dependencies:
  build_runner: ^2.4.0
  json_serializable: ^6.7.1

2. Run build_runner to generate JSON serialization code:

flutter pub run build_runner build --delete-conflicting-outputs

3. Initialize the repository provider in your app:

final repositoryProvider = RepositoryProvider(Supabase.instance.client);

Enum Support

The generator supports PostgreSQL enum types and will automatically generate Dart enum classes for them. When a column in your database uses an enum type, the generator will create a corresponding Dart enum and use it in the generated models and repositories.

Setting Up Enum Types in PostgreSQL

For the best experience with enum types, you should define them properly in your PostgreSQL database. Here's how:

1. Define the enum type:

   CREATE TYPE user_role AS ENUM ('admin', 'user', 'guest');

2. Use the enum type in your table columns:

   CREATE TABLE users (
     id UUID PRIMARY KEY DEFAULT uuid_generate_v4(),
     name TEXT NOT NULL,
     role user_role NOT NULL DEFAULT 'user'
   );

3. Converting existing text columns to enum types: If you have existing text columns that should be enum types, you can convert them:

   -- First, create the enum type
   CREATE TYPE user_role AS ENUM ('admin', 'user', 'guest');
   
   -- Then, alter the column to use the enum type
   ALTER TABLE users 
     ALTER COLUMN role TYPE user_role USING role::user_role;

We've provided a SQL script in sql/update_enum_columns.sql that demonstrates how to define enum types and update columns to use them.

Alternative: Using the get_enum_types Function

If you can't modify your database schema to use proper enum types (for example, in a shared database), you can use the get_enum_types() function to tell the generator which text columns should be treated as enums:

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION get_enum_types()
RETURNS TABLE(enum_name text, enum_value text) AS $$
BEGIN
  RETURN QUERY
  SELECT 
    t.typname::text as enum_name,
    e.enumlabel::text as enum_value
  FROM pg_type t
  JOIN pg_enum e ON t.oid = e.enumtypid
  JOIN pg_catalog.pg_namespace n ON n.oid = t.typnamespace
  WHERE n.nspname = 'public'
  ORDER BY t.typname, e.enumsortorder;
END;
$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;

Generated Dart Code

For each enum type, the generator will create a Dart enum class with methods for converting between string values and enum values. For example:

/// Represents the possible values for UserRole.
enum UserRole {
  admin,
  user,
  guest;
  
  /// Converts a string value from the database to the enum value
  static UserRole fromString(String? value) {
    if (value == null) return UserRole.admin;
    
    return UserRole.values.firstWhere(
      (e) => e.name == value,
      orElse: () => UserRole.admin,
    );
  }
  
  /// Converts the enum to a string for database storage
  String toJson() => name;
}

The generated models will use these enum types and include conversion methods for JSON serialization:

@JsonSerializable()
class User {
  @JsonKey(name: 'id')
  final String id;
  
  @JsonKey(name: 'name')
  final String name;
  
  @JsonKey(name: 'role', fromJson: _roleFromJson, toJson: _roleToJson)
  final UserRole role;
  
  // ... constructor, fromJson, toJson methods ...
  
  // Enum conversion helpers
  static UserRole _roleFromJson(dynamic value) => 
      UserRole.fromString(value as String);
  
  static String _roleToJson(UserRole value) => 
      value.toJson();
}

PostgreSQL Type Mappings

The following PostgreSQL types are mapped to Dart types:

PostgreSQL Type	Dart Type
int, integer, serial, bigserial	int
text, varchar, char, character varying	String
boolean	bool
real, double precision, float	double
numeric, decimal	double
json, jsonb	Map<String, dynamic>
timestamp, timestamptz, timestamp with time zone, timestamp without time zone	DateTime
date	DateTime
time, timetz	String
interval	String
uuid	String
bytea	List

Special Type Handling

Interval Type

PostgreSQL's interval type is mapped to String by default. However, the generator includes special conversion logic to handle cases where you want to use int or double in your Dart model:

1. If the field type in your model is String, the interval value is passed as-is.
2. If the field type is int, the interval is converted to seconds (hours * 3600 + minutes * 60 + seconds).
3. If the field type is double, the interval is converted to seconds with decimal precision.

Example of an interval field in a generated model:

@JsonKey(name: 'total_pause_duration', fromJson: _totalPauseDurationFromJson, toJson: _totalPauseDurationToJson)
final int? totalPauseDuration;

// Conversion methods
static int? _totalPauseDurationFromJson(dynamic value) {
  if (value == null) return null;
  
  // Convert PostgreSQL interval to seconds
  if (value is String) {
    try {
      // Parse interval string like "00:17:02.998758"
      final parts = value.split(':');
      if (parts.length >= 3) {
        final hours = int.parse(parts[0]);
        final minutes = int.parse(parts[1]);
        
        // Handle seconds with potential decimal part
        final secondsPart = parts[2].split('.');
        final seconds = int.parse(secondsPart[0]);
        
        // Convert to total seconds
        return hours * 3600 + minutes * 60 + seconds;
      }
    } catch (e) {
      print('Error parsing interval: $value, $e');
    }
  }
  return 0; // Default value if parsing fails
}

static dynamic _totalPauseDurationToJson(int? value) {
  if (value == null) return null;
  return value.toString();
}
