Setup

1. Download storm-api.jar from the latest release and add to your Android project's libs folder so it will be on the project's build path.
2. Download storm-apt.jar from the latest release and add to your annotation factory classpath (in Eclipse, project properties | Java Compiler > Annotation Processing > Factory Path). Also check the box to enable annotation processing.

Basic Usage

1. Create a new class that extends com.turbomanage.storm.DatabaseHelper (it's in the storm-api jar).
2. Add @Database and supply a database name and version example
3. Override getUpgradeStrategy() to choose one of the available strategies (DROP_CREATE for new projects)
4. Create a POJO class you want to persist to the database
5. Make sure it has a field of type long named "id" or annotated with @Id
6. Add the @Entity annotation to the class example

You'll see 3 generated classes under .apt_generated (you might need to unfilter hidden resources in your IDE to see it):

• a DbFactory class
• a Dao class
• a Table class

You can use the DAO like this:

PersonDao dao = new PersonDao(getContext());
long id = dao.insert(new Person());
Person person = dao.get(id);
