Implement Room Database Singleton for Todo App

Description

Task

Create Room Database Instance: Implement the Room database instance as a singleton, providing a centralized access point for database operations. This ensures a single, consistent database connection throughout the app.

Acceptance Criteria

  • Database can be instantiated only once
  • Singleton pattern prevents multiple database connections
  • Thread-safe database instance creation
  • Consistent database access across the application
  • Efficient and optimized database connection management

Summary of Work

This pull request implements a robust, thread-safe Room Database singleton for the Todo application, providing a centralized and efficient database access mechanism.

Key Implementation Details:

  • Created singleton TodoDatabase using companion object
  • Implemented thread-safe instance creation with synchronized block
  • Used double-checked locking pattern for optimal performance
  • Added fallback migration strategy for database version changes

Database Configuration:

  • Database Name: "todo_database"
  • Version: 1
  • Entities: TodoItem
  • Export Schema: Disabled

Singleton Creation Mechanism:

  • @Volatile annotation ensures visibility across threads
  • synchronized block prevents race conditions during instance creation
  • Lazy initialization with double-checked locking

Thread Safety Considerations:

  • Guarantees only one database instance is created
  • Prevents potential memory leaks and resource contention
  • Ensures consistent database state across application lifecycle

Performance Optimizations:

  • Uses applicationContext to prevent memory leaks
  • Efficient instance retrieval with minimal overhead
  • Supports future migration strategies

Testing Approach:

  • Verified singleton behavior
  • Ensured thread-safe instance creation
  • Confirmed database instance consistency

Changes Made

  • Implemented TodoDatabase singleton in app/src/main/java/com/todoapp/data/database/TodoDatabase.kt
  • Added thread-safe instance creation mechanism
  • Configured Room database with fallback migration strategy
  • Documented database creation and retrieval process

Tests

  • Verify singleton instance is consistently returned
  • Confirm thread-safe database instance creation
  • Test database instance across multiple threads
  • Validate database configuration and entity mapping
