#Day16 of #100DaysOfCode

Today was a long day but it was fun. I am pretty much happy and satisfied with how the work is going oh GOSH!!, I was missing development soo much :orange_heart:, so glad to be back at it…

This app idea may turn into an article once I am finished with it and may write a full-fledged piece rather than broken into days as it is currently :wink:

Today was a mix of Flexbox and Realm Sync. I am still struggling to make a 3 * 3 square matrix :frowning: I wish I was good at maths :stuck_out_tongue: but there is a new Realm Byte today…

I made good progress on BookLog App and also made some more bugs :stuck_out_tongue: I was finally able to sync my schema from Mobile to Atlas… although I am still in process of testing queries…

I am absolutely enjoying the process of discovery, understanding the concepts in more detail. More on the blog :smiley:

Today was a tiring day… I am not as young as I once was and that hurts…(oooffff) lol but I still feel like a child inside :stuck_out_tongue:
I decided to come back to my BookLog App and finish it completely by tomrow, only if there were fewer bugs to fix :wink:

#Day29 of #100DaysOfCode

Today was full of meetings… I could not get a lot done and the day did not end with a happy note. I spent time solving the error I was stuck at for a while… :slight_smile:

I got some suggestions from a Senior Developer, but I could not implement them in the app until late evening :unamused: :unamused: and the code did not work. Realm Queries is a little harder to understand :stuck_out_tongue: I will understand them soon…

I made some changes in the Add Book Fragment, I was suggested not to use transactions in Read queries, so I removed transaction code from all of them.

 private fun openDialogBox(nameList: ArrayList<Author>) {

        val builder: AlertDialog.Builder = AlertDialog.Builder(requireContext())
        builder.setTitle("Select Author/s")
        val selectedAuthors = BooleanArray(nameList.size)
        val stringAuthorList = nameList.map{it.name}.toTypedArray()
        builder.setMultiChoiceItems(stringAuthorList, selectedAuthors) { dialog, which, isChecked ->
            if (isChecked) {
                //when checkbox selected, add position
                selectedItems.add(which)
            } else if (selectedItems.contains(which)) {
                //when checkbox unselected
                //remove pos from list
                selectedItems.remove(which)
            }
        }
        builder.setPositiveButton("OK") { dialog, which ->

            selectedItems.forEach{
                Timber.d("Authors, ${stringAuthorList[it]}")
                nameList.forEach {author ->
                    if(stringAuthorList[it] == author.name){
                        bookObject.authors.add(author)
                    }
                }
//                realmClass.executeTransactionAsync({ realm ->
//                   realm.where(Author::class.java).equalTo("name", nameList[it]).findAll()
//                       .map{addAuthor ->
//                      bookObject.authors.add(addAuthor)
//                   }
//                }, {
//                    Timber.d("Author added successfully")
//                }, { throwable ->
//                    Timber.d("Error adding the author %s", throwable.localizedMessage)
//                })
            }
        }
            .setNegativeButton("Cancel", DialogInterface.OnClickListener{ dialog, id ->
                    dialog.dismiss()
            })

        builder.create().show()
    }

I didn’t feel like deleting the code, so I commented it :smiley: I changed the way I was processing the selected Authors, I used copyFromRealm to get the AuthorList in form of ArrayList that I passed to openDialogBox

The loadAuthors is called when I click on Text Button to add Book Author, it reads the list of authors in the database and displays it on a dialog for the user to select shown in above code.

    private fun loadAuthors() {
        var nameList = ArrayList<Author>()
        realmClass.executeTransactionAsync({
            val authorList = it.where(Author::class.java).sort("name").findAll()
             nameList = it.copyFromRealm(authorList) as ArrayList<Author>
//            authorList.toTypedArray().map { obj ->
//                nameList.add(obj.name)
//            }
        }, {
            if(nameList.size>0) openDialogBox(nameList)
            else {
                Toast.makeText(context, "Author List is empty, please add Author Name first", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show()
            }
        }, {
            Timber.d("Error happened while reading Author List %s", it.localizedMessage)
            Toast.makeText(context, "Error happened while reading List, ${it.localizedMessage}", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show()
        })
    }

Once the user selects the author index, it searches the list for a name that was selected and saves that to the bookObject.

When submit button is pressed, click listeners get called and save the book to realm database. The last part is giving errors and I have no clue how to solve, so I will continue tomorrow.

2022-03-07 22:42:42.517 14699-14699/? D/AddBookFragment: Error adding the bookObject to Database 'BookRealm' has a primary key, use 'createObject(Class<E>, Object)' instead.

I changed the code after above error to following

        addBinding!!.buttonAddBook.setOnClickListener{
                realmClass.executeTransactionAsync ({realm ->
                    val booktoAdd = realm.createObject(BookRealm::class.java, ObjectId())
                    booktoAdd.name = bookObject.name
                    booktoAdd.isRead = bookObject.isRead
                    booktoAdd.authors = realm.copyToRealm(bookObject.authors) as RealmList<Author>

                }, {
                    Timber.d("Book Object Added Successfuly")
                }, {throwError ->
                    Timber.d("Error adding the bookObject to Database %s", throwError.localizedMessage)
                })
        }

And this gives me a different error that I cannot solve

2022-03-07 23:42:34.721 5257-5257/? D/AddBookFragment: Error adding the bookObject to Database Attempting to create an object of type 'Author' with an existing primary key value '621a992338d6fd61a1126414'.

My Add BookFragment screen is as below:
