An extension for Google's AutoValue that generates a createFromCursor(Cursor c)
method for AutoValue annotated objects.
Note: This is an early version that requires the extension support currently in AutoValue 1.2-SNAPSHOT.
Include auto-value-cursor in your project and add a static factory method to your auto-value object.
import com.gabrielittner.auto.value.cursor.ColumnName;
@AutoValue public abstract class User {
abstract String id();
abstract String name();
// use the annotation if column name and field name aren't the same
@ColumnName("email_address") abstract String email();
public static User create(Cursor cursor) {
return AutoValue_User.createFromCursor(cursor);
}
// if your project includes RxJava the extension will generate a Func1<Cursor, User> for you
public static Func1<Cursor, User> mapper() {
return AutoValue_User.MAPPER;
}
}
Important: The extension will only be applied when there is (replace User
with your own class)
- a static method that returns
User
and takes aCursor
as parameter - a static method that returns a
Func1<Cursor, User>
- or both mentioned methods
The following types are supported by default:
byte[]
/Byte[]
double
/Double
float
/Float
int
/Integer
long
/Long
short
/Short
String
boolean
/Boolean
For other types, you need to use the @CursorAdapter
annotation and specify a factory
class that will be used to construct the type from the Cursor
object. By convention, this factory
class needs to have a public static method that takes the Cursor
and returns the
custom type. Eg.:
User.java
:
@AutoValue public abstract class User {
abstract String id();
abstract String name();
@AutoValueCursorFactory(AvatarFactory.class) Avatar avatar();
public static User createFromCursor(Cursor cursor) {
return AutoValue_User.createFromCursor(cursor);
}
}
AvatarFactory.java
:
public class AvatarFactory {
public static Avatar createFromCursor(Cursor cursor) {
String smallImageUrl = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex("small_image_url");
String largeImageUrl = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex("large_image_url");
return new Avatar(smallImageUrl, largeImageUrl);
}
}
Avatar.java
:
public class Avatar {
private final String smallImageUrl;
private final String largeImageUrl;
public Avatar(String smallImageUrl, String largeImageUrl) {
this.smallImageUrl = smallImageUrl;
this.largeImageUrl = largeImageUrl;
}
}
Add a Gradle dependency:
apt 'com.gabrielittner.auto.value:auto-value-cursor:0.2-SNAPSHOT'
// if you need the @ColumnName annotation also include this:
provided 'com.gabrielittner.auto.value:auto-value-cursor-annotations:0.2-SNAPSHOT'
(Using the android-apt plugin)
Snapshots of the development version are available in Sonatype's snapshots
repository.
