Drift 2.25.0

Core drift package:

• Report SqliteExceptions occurring on workers as SqliteException instances. Previously, they were sent as strings only.
• Fix LazyDatabase being closed without ever being used potentially leaking resources.

In the generator:

• Fix incorrect code when applying non-nullable type converters with a nullable JSON type to nullable column.
• Fix missing outputs for drift files only consisting of imports in modular generation mode.
• Allow generating manager references across different files in modular generation mode.
• Fix class names with dollar signs not being escaped in drift-generated toString().
• Make-migrations command: Use flutter_test if the core test package is unavailable and warn when database class needs changes for test.

Drift 2.24.0

This version improves jsonb support and adds other minor improvements:

• Add TypeConverter.jsonb to directly store values in the JSONB format used by SQLite.
• Deprecate TypeConverter.json utility in favor of TypeConverter.json2. The new method avoids encoding values twice when mapping drift row classes to JSON. The documentation
• Add runWithInterceptor method to databases to only apply interceptors in a restricted block.

In the generator, we:

• Support versions 7.x of the analyzer package.
• Add analysis support for SQLite 3.48.
• Fix nullability analysis around fts5 tables (enabled when raising the version to 3.48 to preserve backwards-compatibility).

Drift 2.23.1

This patch release fixes the following issues:

• Fix TableStatements.insertAll to only apply a database-specific pragma for SQLite databases.
• Don't attempt to roll-back transactions that failed to begin.
• Fix unhandled exception when cancelling transactions.
• Fix deadlock when drift databases are used in a fake_async Zone and then closed outside that zone.

Also, drift_dev version 2.23.1 contains one improvement:

• Generate typed reference-resolving queries through the manager API when modular code-generation is enabled. Previously, this feature was only enabled for monolithic generation modes.

Drift 2.23.0

This drift release contains smaller fixes and new features:

Core query builder:

• Allow building compound select statements in Dart.
• Support NULLS FIRST and NULLS LAST in manager API.

Generator and command line tools:

• Fix custom companion names on @DataClassName not being recognized.
• Improve schema exports to resolve default values instead of embedding their source.
• Update dependencies to support latest dart_style version.
• Fix generating dialect-specific code when only a single dialect (that isn't sqlite3) is enabled.

Drift 2.22.0

Core drift package:

• Add sqliteAny() method to tables to declare ANY columns.
• Add missing parentheses around adjacent expressions of the same precedence.
• Fix creating tables that are both STRICT and WITHOUT ROWID.
• WASM: Report worker failures to make them easier to diagnose.
• Allow closing stream queries synchronously, making drift easier to use in widget tests.

Generator improvements

• Add support for the dbstat module.
• Prioritize null propagation in type resolver, leading to more accurate analysis on which columns are nullable.
• CLI options dealing with schemas now support views defined in Dart (#3285).
• Pass language version to dart formatter when generating code.
• Deprecate package:drift_dev/api/migrations.dart in favor of package:drift_dev/api/migrations_native.dart.
• Support runtime schema verification on the web.
• Fix generated code missing question marks for nullable types in some instances.
• Add (opt-in) row_class_constructor_all_required builder option.
• Support the dbstat table in drift-file queries when enabling the dbstat module.
• Fix make-migrations using invalid import URIs in generated test on Windows.

drift_flutter 0.2.2

• Fix infinite loop in isolate server lookups when using shareAcrossIsolates
  across hot restarts.

Drift 2.21.0

Versions 2.21.0 of drift and drift_dev as well as version 0.2.1 of drift_flutter have just been released:

Core changes

• View.from is now declared to return a JoinedSelectStatement, the type it returns at runtime.
• The manager APIs now support computed fields, allowing advanced SQL expressions to be embedded into simple manager queries.

Isolate improvements

• To infer whether serialization is required for inter-isolate communication, drift now sends a test message instead of serializing by default.
• drift_flutter: Enable serialization between background isolates where necessary.

Tooling and generator

• The DevTools extension can now clear drift databases.
• Fix Dart-defined check constraints not being considered in exported schemas.
• Columns can now be defined with late final fields. Defining columns with getters => is still supported too.

  class MyTable extends Table {
    // Before:
    IntColumn get id => integer().autoIncrement()();
  
    // After:
    late final id = integer().nullable()();
  }

• Make build.yaml definitions pass build_runner doctor.
• Fix generate_manager option not consistently being applied to modular builds.
• Add the make-migrations command which combines the existing schema commands into a single tool.

Drift 2.20.3

This patch release fixes a deadlock that could occur when using concurrent nested transactions, a problem introduced in the 2.20.0 release (#3244). Note that drift_worker.js bundles from drift version 2.20.0 until 2.20.2 also have the issue and need to be updated to apply the fix.

Drift 2.20.1

This patch release fixes the following issues:

Core drift package

• Migrate legacy package:drift/web.dart to the new JS interop SDK libraries. For backwards compatibility, the channel() extension on the MessagePort class in dart:html has been kept.
  Once dart:html is removed from the Dart SDK, that extension will have to be removed from drift as well.
• Fix cast errors in the protocol for remote workers when compiling with dart2wasm.
• Introduce a faster protocol for communicating with workers. This protocol is enabled automatically after upgrading drift_worker.js.

Generator

• Strip leading numbers when generating modular accessor names for drift files, fixing syntax errors.
• Support triggers targeting views.
• Include dialect-specific constraints in exported schema files.
• Fix schema export not respecting column constraints of the target dialect.
• Resolve json_extract return types from context if possible.

Drift 2.20.0

Drift changes

• Add readPool parameter to NativeDatabase. It will spawn an additional pool of isolates used to serve multiple reads in parallel, which can improve performance in some specific workloads.
• Mark legacy package:drift/web.dart as deprecated. Users should migrate to package:drift/wasm.dart.

drift_dev changes

• Improve manager API to be able to resolve references when running queries.
• Add TableIndex.sql, allowing database indexes to be defined in SQL without using drift files.
• Add DataClassName.implementing, which can be used to make drift-generated row classes implement existing interfaces.

drift_flutter changes

• Add DriftNativeOptions with shareAcrossIsolates option that will give multiple isolates access to the same drift database without having to manually set up ports.

Drift 2.19.1

This patch release fixes exclusively not working on the web (#3089). The fix requires a drift_worker.js update.
