Fts3

public abstract @interface Fts3
implements Annotation

Marks an Entity annotated class as a FTS3 entity. This class will have a mapping SQLite FTS3 table in the database.

FTS3 and FTS4 are SQLite virtual table modules that allows full-text searches to be performed on a set of documents.

An FTS entity table always has a column named rowid that is the equivalent of an INTEGER PRIMARY KEY index. Therefore, an FTS entity can only have a single field annotated with PrimaryKey, it must be named rowid and must be of INTEGER affinity. The field can be optionally omitted in the class but can still be used in queries.

All fields in an FTS entity are of TEXT affinity, except the for the 'rowid' field.

Example:

 @Entity
 @Fts3
 public class Mail {
   @PrimaryKey
   @ColumnInfo(name = "rowid")
   private final int rowId;
   private final String subject;
   private final String body;

   public Mail(int rowId, String subject, String body) {
       this.rowId = rowId;
       this.subject = subject;
       this.body = body;
   }

   public String getRowId() {
       return rowId;
   }
   public String getSubject() {
       return subject;
   }
   public void getBody() {
       return body;
   }
 }
