Contacts #

A set of classes useful for managing contacts. In order to save data in a database, each class has toMap() method, and to retrieve data from the database, each class has fromMap(Map<String, dynamic> map) method.

Contact class #

The main class of this package is definitely Contacts. All the other classes, although they can be useful separately, were created thinking about the formation of a contact and interaction with it.

For the choice of contact information, I referred to those that can be saved for a contact in Google Contacts. The idea is to make it easy to save a contact’s information in an exhaustive and, at the same time, well organized way.

Another important goal is to facilitate the saving of class instances in a database and, in the opposite sense, the retrieve of the instance starting from the information saved in the database.

To give an example, a Contact can look like this:

Contact(
    addresses: [address],
    birthday: birthday,
    chats: [chat],
    customFields: [customField],
    emails: [email1, email2],
    events: [event],
    internetCalls: [internetCall],
    jobs: [job],
    name: name,
    notes: 'Notes',
    phones: [phone1, phone2],
    relationships: [relationship1, relationship2],
    websites: [website],
)
