Spot
Spot ( Shared Preferences Object Transformer) is Android object-data mapper for SharedPreferences.
Main features are as below:
- No reflection: All repository classes will be generated by annotation processing.
- POJO support: Entity classes do not need to inherit base class.
- Store any types: By providing TypeConverter, any types can be stored.

NOTE: if you use Android Gradle Plugin before 2.2.0, you must use android-apt plugin instead of annotationProcessor configuration.
Basic usage
Annotate your entity class with @Pref and fields with @PrefField.
@Pref(name = "foo") public class MyEntity {
// Integer field
// defaultValue can be omitted.
@PrefField(name = "hoge")
public int hoge = 123;
// String field
// defaultValue can be omitted.
@PrefField(name = "fuga")
public String fuga = "Hello";
// Default constructor is needed.
public MyEntity() {
}
}
Once your build, MyEntitySpotRepository class will be generated in same package as entity class.
// Get MyEntity entity = MyEntitySpotRepository.getEntity(context);
// Put entity.hoge = 123; entity.fuga = "Goodbye" MyEntitySpotRepository.putEntity(context, entity);
Type converter
Spot supports 6 types ( int, long, float, boolean, String and Set<String>) as fields but other types can also be supported by providing TypeConverter class.
For example, let's support java.util.Date class as entity field.
At first, subclass of TypeConverter is needed. The follow sample gets/puts Date value from SharedPreferences by converting from/to Long.
public class DateTypeConverter extends TypeConverter<Date, Long> {
@Override
public Date convertFromSupportedType(Long t) {
return new Date(t);
}
@Override
public Long convertToSupportedType(Date t) {
return t.getTime();
}
}
At last, annotate Date field with converter option.
@Pref(name = "foo") public class MyEntity {
@PrefField(name = "date", converter = DateTypeConverter.class)
public Date date = new Date();
}
Kotlin
To work with Kotlin, please set true to useSetter and useGetter option.
@Pref(name = "MyModel") data class MyModel {
@PrefField(name = "foo", useSetter = true, useGetter = true)
var foo: Int = 0
}
Migration from 1.0.0 or older versions
- Replace
@Pref***with@PrefFielddefaultValueis deprecated at v2 therefore put default value to field init value.
// Before // @PrefInt(name = "foo", defaultValue = 123) // public int foo; // After @PrefField(name = "foo") public int foo = 123;
