We want to hear about your app!
It will - literally - take just a minute, but help us a lot. Thank you! ?
ObjectBox Java (Kotlin, Android)
ObjectBox is a superfast object-oriented database with strong relation support.
ObjectBox is embedded into your Android, Linux, macOS, or Windows app.
Latest version: 2.5.1 (2020/02/10)
Demo code using ObjectBox:
Playlist playlist = new Playlist("My Favorties");
playlist.songs.add(new Song("Lalala"));
playlist.songs.add(new Song("Lololo"));
box.put(playlist);
Other languages/bindings
ObjectBox supports multiple platforms and languages.
Besides JVM based languages like Java and Kotlin, ObjectBox also offers:
- ObjectBox Swift: build fast mobile apps for iOS (and macOS)
- ObjectBox Dart/Flutter: cross-plattform for mobile and desktop apps (beta)
- ObjectBox Go: great for data-driven tools and small server applications
- ObjectBox C API: native speed with zero copy access to FlatBuffer objects
Gradle setup
Add this to your root build.gradle (project level):
buildscript {
ext.objectboxVersion = '2.5.1'
dependencies {
classpath "io.objectbox:objectbox-gradle-plugin:$objectboxVersion"
}
}
And this to our app's build.gradle (module level):
apply plugin: 'io.objectbox' // after applying Android plugin
First steps
Create data object class @Entity, for example "Playlist".
@Entity public class Playlist { ... }
Now build the project to let ObjectBox generate the class MyObjectBox for you.
Prepare the BoxStore object once for your app, e.g. in onCreate in your Application class:
boxStore = MyObjectBox.builder().androidContext(this).build();
Then get a Box class for the Playlist entity class:
Box<Playlist> box = boxStore.boxFor(Playlist.class);
The Box object gives you access to all major functions, like put, get, remove, and query.
For details please check the docs.
