17. Types of locks 4 Unlocked 4 Shared
18. Types of locks 4 Unlocked 4 Shared 4 Reserved
19. Types of locks 4 Unlocked 4 Shared 4 Reserved 4 Pending
20. Types of locks 4 Unlocked 4 Shared 4 Reserved 4 Pending 4 Exclusive
21. Reading from the database
22. Writing to the database 1. Get share lock 2. Get reserved lock 3. Write to memory 4. Write to rollback journal
23. The rollback journal
24. Writing to the database 1. Obtain a PENDING lock 2. Obtain an EXCLUSIVE lock 3. Wait for SHARED lockes to be done 4. Write to database
25. Write-Ahead Log (WAL)
26. WAL continued
27. Writes with WAL 1. Append to WAL 2. COMMIT 3. Continue writing 4. Checkpoint- write to file
28. Reads with WAL 1. Check WAL 2. Check DB
29. Database connections
30. SQLite connections
31. Android APIs
32. Only one write connection and multiple reads
33. Get a connection to SQLite
34. package android.database.sqlite; public abstract class SQLiteOpenHelper { public SQLiteDatabase getWritableDatabase() { synchronized (this) { return getDatabaseLocked(true); } } public SQLiteDatabase getReadableDatabase() { synchronized (this) { return getDatabaseLocked(false); } } }
35. public final class SQLiteDatabase extends SQLiteClosable { // The connection pool for the database, null when closed. // The pool itself is thread-safe, but the reference to it can only be acquired // when the lock is held. // INVARIANT: Guarded by mLock. private SQLiteConnectionPool mConnectionPoolLocked; }
36. Change SQLite settings public final class SQLiteDatabase extends SQLiteClosable { public boolean enableWriteAheadLogging() { ... mConfigurationLocked.openFlags |= ENABLE_WRITE_AHEAD_LOGGING; try { mConnectionPoolLocked.reconfigure(mConfigurationLocked); } catch (RuntimeException ex) { mConfigurationLocked.openFlags &= ~ENABLE_WRITE_AHEAD_LOGGING; throw ex; } } }
37. public final class SQLiteConnection ... { private void setWalModeFromConfiguration() { ... setJournalMode("WAL"); ... } } }
38. private void setJournalMode(String newValue) { String value = executeForString("PRAGMA journal_mode", null, null); if (!value.equalsIgnoreCase(newValue)) { try { String result = executeForString("PRAGMA journal_mode=" + newValue, null, null); if (result.equalsIgnoreCase(newValue)) { return; } // PRAGMA journal_mode silently fails and returns the original journal // mode in some cases if the journal mode could not be changed. } catch (SQLiteDatabaseLockedException ex) { // This error (SQLITE_BUSY) occurs if one connection has the database // open in WAL mode and another tries to change it to non-WAL. } ... }
39. Where Room sets up WAL public abstract class RoomDatabase { public void init(@NonNull DatabaseConfiguration configuration) { mOpenHelper = createOpenHelper(configuration); boolean wal = false; if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.JELLY_BEAN) { wal = configuration.journalMode == JournalMode.WRITE_AHEAD_LOGGING; mOpenHelper.setWriteAheadLoggingEnabled(wal); } ... } }
40. Room with threads
41. Queries (reads) in Room
42. Writes in Room?
43. Transactions
44. Transactions in SQLite
45. SQLite BEGIN TRANSACTION
46. SQLite COMMIT
47. Transaction on journal vs WAL
48. Transactions / writes with Android API
49. Room wraps a lot of things in transactions
50. Multiple write statements - same transaction val preparedQuery = prepareQuery("INSERT...") beginTransaction input.forEach { bind(preparedQuery, it) } endTransaction
51. Triggers
52. Triggers in SQLite
53. Triggers for RxJava and LiveData class RoomTrackingLiveData<T> extends LiveData<T> { final Runnable mInvalidationRunnable = new Runnable() { ... public void run() { boolean isActive = hasActiveObservers(); if (mInvalid.compareAndSet(false, true)) { if (isActive) { mDatabase.getQueryExecutor().execute(mRefreshRunnable); } } } }; }
54. final Runnable mRefreshRunnable = new Runnable() { @WorkerThread @Override public void run() { if (mRegisteredObserver.compareAndSet(false, true)) { mDatabase.getInvalidationTracker().addWeakObserver(mObserver); }
55. Invalidation Tracking public class InvalidationTracker { @RestrictTo(RestrictTo.Scope.LIBRARY_GROUP) public void addWeakObserver(Observer observer) { addObserver(new WeakObserver(this, observer)); } }
56. public class InvalidationTracker { void syncTriggers(SupportSQLiteDatabase database) { } private void startTrackingTable(SupportSQLiteDatabase writableDb, int tableId) { final String tableName = mTableNames[tableId]; StringBuilder stringBuilder = new StringBuilder(); for (String trigger : TRIGGERS) { stringBuilder.setLength(0); stringBuilder.append("CREATE TEMP TRIGGER IF NOT EXISTS "); appendTriggerName(stringBuilder, tableName, trigger); stringBuilder.append(" AFTER ") .append(trigger) .append(" ON `") .append(tableName) .append("` BEGIN INSERT OR REPLACE INTO ") .append(UPDATE_TABLE_NAME) .append(" VALUES(null, ") .append(tableId) .append("); END"); writableDb.execSQL(stringBuilder.toString()); } }
57. private boolean checkUpdatedTable() { boolean hasUpdatedTable = false; Cursor cursor = mDatabase.query(new SimpleSQLiteQuery(SELECT_UPDATED_TABLES_SQL)); //noinspection TryFinallyCanBeTryWithResources try { while (cursor.moveToNext()) { final int tableId = cursor.getInt(0); mTableInvalidStatus.set(tableId); hasUpdatedTable = true; } } finally { cursor.close(); } if (hasUpdatedTable) { mCleanupStatement.executeUpdateDelete(); } return hasUpdatedTable; }
58. public void endTransaction() { mOpenHelper.getWritableDatabase().endTransaction(); if (!inTransaction()) { // enqueue refresh only if we are NOT in a transaction. Otherwise, wait for the last // endTransaction call to do it. mInvalidationTracker.refreshVersionsAsync(); } }
59. AFTER INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE ON <table> BEGIN UPDATE SET invalidated = 1 WHERE tableId = <id> AND invalidated = 0; END
60. Transactions with Room
61. TransactionExecutor
62. class TransactionExecutor implements Executor { private final Executor mExecutor; private final ArrayDeque<Runnable> mTasks = new ArrayDeque<>(); private Runnable mActive; TransactionExecutor(@NonNull Executor executor) { mExecutor = executor; } public synchronized void execute(final Runnable command) { mTasks.offer(new Runnable() { public void run() { try { command.run(); } finally { scheduleNext(); } } }); if (mActive == null) { scheduleNext(); } } @SuppressWarnings("WeakerAccess") synchronized void scheduleNext() { if ((mActive = mTasks.poll()) != null) { mExecutor.execute(mActive); } } }
63. In RxJava public class RxRoom { @RestrictTo(RestrictTo.Scope.LIBRARY_GROUP_PREFIX) public static <T> Observable<T> createObservable(final RoomDatabase database, final boolean inTransaction, final String[] tableNames, final Callable<T> callable) { Scheduler scheduler = Schedulers.from(getExecutor(database, inTransaction)); final Maybe<T> maybe = Maybe.fromCallable(callable); return createObservable(database, tableNames) .subscribeOn(scheduler) .unsubscribeOn(scheduler) .observeOn(scheduler) .flatMapMaybe(new Function<Object, MaybeSource<T>>() { @Override public MaybeSource<T> apply(Object o) throws Exception { return maybe; } }); } private static Executor getExecutor(RoomDatabase database, boolean inTransaction) { if (inTransaction) { return database.getTransactionExecutor(); } else { return database.getQueryExecutor(); } } }
64. In Coroutines class CoroutinesRoom private constructor() { companion object { @JvmStatic suspend fun <R> execute( db: RoomDatabase, inTransaction: Boolean, callable: Callable<R> ): R { if (db.isOpen && db.inTransaction()) { return callable.call() } // Use the transaction dispatcher if we are on a transaction coroutine, otherwise // use the database dispatchers. val context = coroutineContext[TransactionElement]?.transactionDispatcher ?: if (inTransaction) db.transactionDispatcher else db.queryDispatcher return withContext(context) { callable.call() } } } }
65. Transaction APIs in Room public abstract class RoomDatabase { @Deprecated public void beginTransaction() { assertNotMainThread(); SupportSQLiteDatabase database = mOpenHelper.getWritableDatabase(); mInvalidationTracker.syncTriggers(database); database.beginTransaction(); } /** * Wrapper for {@link SupportSQLiteDatabase#endTransaction()}. * * @deprecated Use {@link #runInTransaction(Runnable)} */ @Deprecated public void endTransaction() { mOpenHelper.getWritableDatabase().endTransaction(); if (!inTransaction()) { // enqueue refresh only if we are NOT in a transaction. Otherwise, wait for the last // endTransaction call to do it. mInvalidationTracker.refreshVersionsAsync(); } } }
66. public abstract class RoomDatabase { public void runInTransaction(@NonNull Runnable body) { beginTransaction(); try { body.run(); setTransactionSuccessful(); } finally { endTransaction(); } } }
67. What can developers Do?
68. Conclusions
69. Large queries and paging in Room
70. Cursor - Android API package android.database.sqlite; public class SQLiteCursor extends AbstractWindowedCursor { private void fillWindow(int requiredPos) { ... } }
71. So large queries are...
72. Why is this a problem? 1. SQLiteCursor isn't in a transaction
73. Why is this a problem? 1. SQLiteCursor isn't in a transaction 2. SQLiteCursor cursorPickFillWindowStartPosition
74. /** * Picks a start position for {@link Cursor#fillWindow} such that the * window will contain the requested row and a useful range of rows * around it. * * When the data set is too large to fit in a cursor window, seeking the * cursor can become a very expensive operation since we have to run the * query again when we move outside the bounds of the current window. * * We try to choose a start position for the cursor window such that * 1/3 of the window's capacity is used to hold rows before the requested * position and 2/3 of the window's capacity is used to hold rows after the * requested position. * * @param cursorPosition The row index of the row we want to get. * @param cursorWindowCapacity The estimated number of rows that can fit in * a cursor window, or 0 if unknown. * @return The recommended start position, always less than or equal to * the requested row. * @hide */ public static int cursorPickFillWindowStartPosition( int cursorPosition, int cursorWindowCapacity) { return Math.max(cursorPosition - cursorWindowCapacity / 3, 0); }
75. Solution #1: @Transaction https://medium.com/androiddevelopers/7-pro-tips- for-room-fbadea4bfbd1
76. Solution #2: Write smaller queries!
77. Solution #3: Integrate with paging library package androidx.room.paging; public abstract class LimitOffsetDataSource<T> extends PositionalDataSource<T> { public List<T> loadRange(int startPosition, int loadCount) { final RoomSQLiteQuery sqLiteQuery = getSQLiteQuery(startPosition, loadCount); if (mInTransaction) { mDb.beginTransaction(); Cursor cursor = null; //noinspection TryFinallyCanBeTryWithResources try { cursor = mDb.query(sqLiteQuery); List<T> rows = convertRows(cursor); mDb.setTransactionSuccessful(); return rows; } finally { if (cursor != null) { cursor.close(); } mDb.endTransaction(); sqLiteQuery.release(); } } else { Cursor cursor = mDb.query(sqLiteQuery); //noinspection TryFinallyCanBeTryWithResources try { return convertRows(cursor); } finally { cursor.close(); sqLiteQuery.release(); } } } }
78. mLimitOffsetQuery = "SELECT * FROM ( " + mSourceQuery.getSql() + " ) LIMIT ? OFFSET ?";
79. Paging + LiveData + Room support LiveData<PagedList<User>> users = new LivePagedListBuilder<>( userDao.loadUsersByAgeDesc(), /*page size*/ 20).build(); https://github.com/googlesamples/android- architecture-components/tree/master/PagingSample
