I am a complete flutter and sqflite beginner. I am trying to make my calendar events persist over app restarts so I am implementing an SQFlite database. However, I keep running into this error and have no idea what is causing it. I tried to debug this with Phind, a programming AI, but to no avail.

Error:

Database code:

class EventsDatabase {
static final EventsDatabase instance = EventsDatabase._init();

  static Database? _database;

  EventsDatabase._init();

  Future<Database> get database async {

    await db.execute('''
    CREATE TABLE $eventsTable
    (

    final orderBy = 'startTime ASC';

    final result = await db.query(

EventHandler class –

final String eventsTable = 'events';

class EventFields {
  static final List<String> values = [
    summary,
    description,
    startTime,
    endTime,
    isAllDay
  ];

  static final String summary = 'summary';
  static final String description = 'description';
  static final String startTime = 'startTime';
  static final String endTime = 'endTime';
  static final String isAllDay = 'isAllDay'; // Add this line for the new field
}

class EventHandler {
  Map<String, Object?> toJson(NeatCleanCalendarEvent event) => {
        EventFields.summary: event.summary,
        EventFields.description: event.description,
        EventFields.startTime: event.startTime.millisecondsSinceEpoch,
        EventFields.endTime: event.endTime.millisecondsSinceEpoch,
        EventFields.isAllDay: event.isAllDay ? 1 : 0, // Convert to integer
      };

  static NeatCleanCalendarEvent fromJson(Map<String, Object?> json) =>
      NeatCleanCalendarEvent(
        json[EventFields.summary] as String,
        description: json[EventFields.description] as String,
        startTime: DateTime.fromMillisecondsSinceEpoch(
            json[EventFields.startTime] as int),
        endTime: DateTime.fromMillisecondsSinceEpoch(
            json[EventFields.endTime] as int),
        isAllDay:
            (json[EventFields.isAllDay] as int) == 1, // Convert to boolean
      );
}

  1. I think you should retry with the AI tbh. I cannot find an error for the life of me. Try restarting from scratch if nothing works.

  2. Your booleanType is an integer.

    final booleanType = 'INTEGER DEFAULT 0';
    

    That means you have to use integers instead of booleans (1 for true and 0 for false)

    Try this change

    static NeatCleanCalendarEvent fromJson(Map<String, Object?> json) =>
          NeatCleanCalendarEvent(
            json[EventFields.summary] as String,
            description: json[EventFields.description] as String,
            startTime: DateTime.fromMillisecondsSinceEpoch(
                json[EventFields.startTime] as int),
            endTime: DateTime.fromMillisecondsSinceEpoch(
                json[EventFields.endTime] as int),
            isAllDay:
                json[EventFields.isAllDay] as int, 
          );
        ```
