| 2 | + |
| 3 | +## 🚀 New Features |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +### Reactive Synchronization Streams |
| 6 | +- **Major Feature**: Added real-time dirty row change notification via reactive streams |

| 8 | +- **Benefits**: |
| 9 | + - Zero overhead when no changes occur |
| 10 | + - Immediate response to data modifications |
| 11 | + - Better battery life compared to polling approaches |
| 12 | + - Perfect for offline-first applications with real-time sync |
| 13 | + |
| 14 | +### Enhanced Exception Handling Exports |
| 15 | +- **Complete API Exposure**: All database exception classes now properly exported |
| 16 | +- **New Exports**: |
| 17 | + - `DbOperationType` enum for operation context |
| 18 | + - `DbErrorCategory` enum for error classification |
| 19 | + - `DeclarativeDatabaseException` and all specialized exception types |
| 20 | + - `DbExceptionMapper` for advanced error handling |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | +## 🔧 Technical Implementation |
| 23 | + |
| 24 | +### Core Changes |
| 25 | +- **DirtyRowStore Interface**: Added `Stream<DirtyRow> get onRowAdded` and `Future<void> dispose()` |
| 26 | +- **SqliteDirtyRowStore**: Implemented with `StreamController.broadcast()` for multiple listeners |
| 27 | +- **DeclarativeDatabase**: Added `onDirtyRowAdded` getter and integrated disposal in `close()` |
| 28 | +- **Library Exports**: Enhanced `declarative_sqlite.dart` with comprehensive exception handling |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | +### Testing Coverage |
| 31 | +- **9 New Test Scenarios**: Comprehensive reactive stream functionality testing |
| 32 | +- **Stream Validation**: Broadcast stream behavior, disposal patterns, data integrity |

| 88 | +## 💡 Usage Examples |
| 89 | + |
| 90 | +### Before (Polling Approach) |
| 91 | +```dart |
| 92 | +// ❌ Inefficient polling every 30 seconds |
| 93 | +Timer.periodic(Duration(seconds: 30), (timer) async { |
| 94 | + final dirtyRows = await database.getDirtyRows(); |
| 95 | + if (dirtyRows.isNotEmpty) { |
| 96 | + await performSync(); |
| 97 | + } |
| 98 | +}); |
| 99 | +``` |
| 100 | + |
| 101 | +### After (Reactive Approach) |
| 102 | +```dart |
| 103 | +// ✅ Efficient reactive sync |
| 104 | +database.onDirtyRowAdded?.listen((dirtyRow) { |
| 105 | + print('New change: ${dirtyRow.tableName} ${dirtyRow.rowId}'); |
| 106 | + debouncedSync.trigger(); // Immediate response |
| 107 | +}); |
| 108 | +``` |
| 109 | + |
