Overview

The DailyNotification plugin is a Capacitor-based cross-platform notification system designed for TimeSafari applications. It provides enterprise-grade notification management with offline-first capabilities, exact-time scheduling, and comprehensive analytics.

Key Capabilities

  • Exact-Time Scheduling: DST-safe notifications with Doze mode compatibility
  • Offline-First Design: Works without network connectivity
  • Enterprise Data Management: Room database with encryption and retention policies
  • Cross-Platform Support: Android (native) and iOS (planned)
  • Comprehensive Analytics: Delivery tracking, user interaction analysis, and performance metrics
  • Schema Validation: Runtime validation with Zod for data integrity
  • Permission Management: Graceful handling of Android 13+ permissions

Architecture Goals

  1. Reliability: 99.9% notification delivery success rate
  2. Performance: Sub-100ms response times for critical operations
  3. Scalability: Support for 10,000+ notifications per user
  4. Security: End-to-end encryption for sensitive data
  5. Maintainability: Clean separation of concerns and comprehensive testing

Architecture Principles

1. Plugin-First Design

The plugin operates as a self-contained unit with its own:

  • Database schema and storage
  • Configuration management
  • Analytics and reporting
  • Security and encryption
  • Lifecycle management

2. Offline-First Architecture

All core functionality works without network connectivity:

  • Local notification scheduling
  • Cached content delivery
  • Offline analytics collection
  • Local configuration management

3. Data Integrity First

Schema validation at every boundary:

  • TypeScript/Zod validation for JavaScript inputs
  • Room database constraints for native data
  • Encryption for sensitive information
  • Retention policies for data lifecycle

4. Performance by Design

Optimized for mobile constraints:

  • Background thread execution
  • Efficient database queries with proper indexing
  • Work deduplication and idempotence
  • Battery-aware operations

5. Security by Default

Defense in depth:

  • Encryption at rest for sensitive data
  • Secure key management
  • Permission-based access control
  • Audit logging for all operations

Data Architecture

Database Schema Design

The plugin uses Room database with three main entities:

1. NotificationContentEntity

Purpose: Store notification content and metadata

@Entity(tableName = "notification_content")
public class NotificationContentEntity {
    @PrimaryKey String id;                    // Unique notification ID
    String pluginVersion;                      // Plugin version for migration
    String timesafariDid;                      // TimeSafari user identifier
    String notificationType;                   // Type classification
    String title;                              // Notification title
    String body;                               // Notification body
    long scheduledTime;                         // When to deliver
    String timezone;                           // User timezone
    int priority;                              // Notification priority
    boolean vibrationEnabled;                  // Vibration setting
    boolean soundEnabled;                       // Sound setting
    String mediaUrl;                           // Media attachment URL
    String encryptedContent;                   // Encrypted sensitive data
    String encryptionKeyId;                    // Encryption key identifier
    long createdAt;                           // Creation timestamp
    long updatedAt;                           // Last update timestamp
    long ttlSeconds;                          // Time-to-live
    String deliveryStatus;                     // Current delivery status
    int deliveryAttempts;                     // Number of delivery attempts
    long lastDeliveryAttempt;                 // Last attempt timestamp
    int userInteractionCount;                 // User interaction count
    long lastUserInteraction;                 // Last interaction timestamp
    String metadata;                          // Additional metadata
}

2. NotificationDeliveryEntity

Purpose: Track delivery events and analytics

@Entity(tableName = "notification_delivery")
public class NotificationDeliveryEntity {
    @PrimaryKey String id;                     // Unique delivery ID
    String notificationId;                      // Reference to notification
    String timesafariDid;                      // TimeSafari user identifier
    long deliveryTimestamp;                    // When delivery occurred
    String deliveryStatus;                     // Success/failure status
    String deliveryMethod;                      // How it was delivered
    int deliveryAttemptNumber;                 // Attempt sequence number
    long deliveryDurationMs;                   // How long delivery took
    String userInteractionType;                // Type of user interaction
    long userInteractionTimestamp;             // When interaction occurred
    long userInteractionDurationMs;            // Interaction duration
    String errorCode;                          // Error classification
    String errorMessage;                       // Detailed error message
    String deviceInfo;                         // Device context
    String networkInfo;                        // Network context
    int batteryLevel;                          // Battery level at delivery
    boolean dozeModeActive;                     // Doze mode status
    boolean exactAlarmPermission;              // Exact alarm permission
    boolean notificationPermission;           // Notification permission
    String metadata;                          // Additional context
}

3. NotificationConfigEntity

Purpose: Store configuration and user preferences

@Entity(tableName = "notification_config")
public class NotificationConfigEntity {
    @PrimaryKey String id;                     // Unique config ID
    String timesafariDid;                      // TimeSafari user identifier
    String configType;                         // Configuration category
    String configKey;                          // Configuration key
    String configValue;                        // Configuration value
    String configDataType;                     // Data type (boolean, int, string, json)
    boolean isEncrypted;                       // Encryption flag
    String encryptionKeyId;                    // Encryption key identifier
    long createdAt;                           // Creation timestamp
    long updatedAt;                           // Last update timestamp
    long ttlSeconds;                          // Time-to-live
    boolean isActive;                          // Active status
    String metadata;                          // Additional metadata
}

    }

Indexing Strategy

Performance-optimized indexes for common query patterns:

-- NotificationContentEntity indexes
CREATE INDEX idx_notification_content_timesafari_did ON notification_content(timesafari_did);
CREATE INDEX idx_notification_content_type ON notification_content(notification_type);
CREATE INDEX idx_notification_content_scheduled_time ON notification_content(scheduled_time);
CREATE INDEX idx_notification_content_created_at ON notification_content(created_at);
CREATE INDEX idx_notification_content_plugin_version ON notification_content(plugin_version);

-- NotificationDeliveryEntity indexes
CREATE INDEX idx_notification_delivery_notification_id ON notification_delivery(notification_id);
CREATE INDEX idx_notification_delivery_timestamp ON notification_delivery(delivery_timestamp);
CREATE INDEX idx_notification_delivery_status ON notification_delivery(delivery_status);
CREATE INDEX idx_notification_delivery_user_interaction ON notification_delivery(user_interaction_type);
CREATE INDEX idx_notification_delivery_timesafari_did ON notification_delivery(timesafari_did);

-- NotificationConfigEntity indexes
CREATE INDEX idx_notification_config_timesafari_did ON notification_config(timesafari_did);
CREATE INDEX idx_notification_config_type ON notification_config(config_type);
CREATE INDEX idx_notification_config_updated_at ON notification_config(updated_at);

Storage Implementation

Room Database Architecture

Database Class

@Database(
    entities = {
        NotificationContentEntity.class,
        NotificationDeliveryEntity.class,
        NotificationConfigEntity.class
    },
    version = 1,
    exportSchema = false
)
public abstract class DailyNotificationDatabase extends RoomDatabase {
    
    private static final String DATABASE_NAME = "daily_notification_plugin.db";
    private static volatile DailyNotificationDatabase INSTANCE;
    
    public abstract NotificationContentDao notificationContentDao();
    public abstract NotificationDeliveryDao notificationDeliveryDao();
    public abstract NotificationConfigDao notificationConfigDao();
    
    public static DailyNotificationDatabase getInstance(Context context) {
        return Room.databaseBuilder(
            context.getApplicationContext(),
            DailyNotificationDatabase.class,
            DATABASE_NAME
        ).build();
    }
}

DAO Pattern Implementation

NotificationContentDao - Comprehensive CRUD operations:

@Dao
public interface NotificationContentDao {
    // Basic CRUD
    @Insert(onConflict = OnConflictStrategy.REPLACE)
    void insertNotification(NotificationContentEntity notification);
    
    @Query("SELECT * FROM notification_content WHERE id = :id")
    NotificationContentEntity getNotificationById(String id);
    
    @Update
    void updateNotification(NotificationContentEntity notification);
    
    @Query("DELETE FROM notification_content WHERE id = :id")
    void deleteNotification(String id);
    
    // Plugin-specific queries
    @Query("SELECT * FROM notification_content WHERE timesafari_did = :timesafariDid ORDER BY scheduled_time ASC")
    List<NotificationContentEntity> getNotificationsByTimeSafariDid(String timesafariDid);
    
    @Query("SELECT * FROM notification_content WHERE scheduled_time <= :currentTime AND delivery_status != 'delivered' ORDER BY scheduled_time ASC")
    List<NotificationContentEntity> getNotificationsReadyForDelivery(long currentTime);
    
    // Analytics queries
    @Query("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM notification_content WHERE notification_type = :notificationType")
    int getNotificationCountByType(String notificationType);
    
    // Cleanup operations
    @Query("DELETE FROM notification_content WHERE (created_at + (ttl_seconds * 1000)) < :currentTime")
    int deleteExpiredNotifications(long currentTime);
}

Storage Service Architecture

DailyNotificationStorageRoom

High-level storage service with async operations:

public class DailyNotificationStorageRoom {
    private DailyNotificationDatabase database;
    private ExecutorService executorService;
    
    // Async notification operations
    public CompletableFuture<Boolean> saveNotificationContent(NotificationContentEntity content) {
        return CompletableFuture.supplyAsync(() -> {
            content.pluginVersion = PLUGIN_VERSION;
            content.touch();
            contentDao.insertNotification(content);
            return true;
        }, executorService);
    }
    
    // Analytics operations
    public CompletableFuture<DeliveryAnalytics> getDeliveryAnalytics(String timesafariDid) {
        return CompletableFuture.supplyAsync(() -> {
            List<NotificationDeliveryEntity> deliveries = deliveryDao.getDeliveriesByTimeSafariDid(timesafariDid);
            // Calculate analytics...
            return analytics;
        }, executorService);
    }
}

Data Migration Strategy

From SharedPreferences to Room

Migration process for existing data:

public class StorageMigration {
    
    public void migrateFromSharedPreferences(Context context) {
        SharedPreferences prefs = context.getSharedPreferences("DailyNotificationPrefs", Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
        Map<String, ?> allData = prefs.getAll();
        
        for (Map.Entry<String, ?> entry : allData.entrySet()) {
            if (entry.getKey().startsWith("notification_")) {
                // Convert SharedPreferences data to Room entity
                NotificationContentEntity entity = convertToEntity(entry.getValue());
                database.notificationContentDao().insertNotification(entity);
            }
        }
    }
    
    private NotificationContentEntity convertToEntity(Object value) {
        // Conversion logic from SharedPreferences format to Room entity
        // Handles data type conversion, field mapping, and validation
    }
}

Plugin Integration

Capacitor Plugin Architecture

Plugin Registration

Automatic plugin discovery via Capacitor annotation processor:

@CapacitorPlugin(name = "DailyNotification")
public class DailyNotificationPlugin extends Plugin {
    
    private DailyNotificationScheduler scheduler;
    private DailyNotificationStorageRoom storage;
    
    @Override
    public void load() {
        scheduler = new DailyNotificationScheduler(getContext());
        storage = new DailyNotificationStorageRoom(getContext());
    }
    
    @PluginMethod
    public void scheduleDailyNotification(PluginCall call) {
        // Implementation with validation and error handling
    }
}

Method Routing

Centralized method handling with validation:

@PluginMethod
public void scheduleDailyNotification(PluginCall call) {
    try {
        // Validate input with Zod schema
        NotificationOptions options = NotificationValidationService.validateNotificationOptions(call.getData());
        
        // Create notification entity
        NotificationContentEntity entity = new NotificationContentEntity(
            options.id, PLUGIN_VERSION, options.timesafariDid,
            options.type, options.title, options.body,
            options.scheduledTime, options.timezone
        );
        
        // Save to Room database
        storage.saveNotificationContent(entity).thenAccept(success -> {
            if (success) {
                // Schedule with AlarmManager
                scheduler.scheduleExactAlarm(entity);
                call.resolve();
            } else {
                call.reject("Failed to save notification");
            }
        });
        
    } catch (ValidationException e) {
        call.reject("Invalid notification options: " + e.getMessage());
    }
}

JavaScript Integration

Service Layer Architecture

High-level service for Vue3 applications:

export class NotificationService {
    private plugin: ValidatedDailyNotificationPlugin;
    private permissionManager: NotificationPermissionManager;
    
    async scheduleNotification(options: NotificationOptions): Promise<boolean> {
        // Validate permissions
        const hasPermissions = await this.permissionManager.checkPermissions();
        if (!hasPermissions) {
            throw new Error('Notification permissions required');
        }
        
        // Schedule notification
        const result = await this.plugin.scheduleDailyNotification(options);
        return result.success;
    }
    
    async getNotificationStatus(): Promise<NotificationStatus> {
        return await this.plugin.checkStatus();
    }
}

Validation Integration

Schema validation at service boundaries:

export class NotificationValidationService {
    static validateNotificationOptions(data: any): NotificationOptions {
        const result = NotificationOptionsSchema.safeParse(data);
        if (!result.success) {
            throw new ValidationException('Invalid notification options', result.error);
        }
        return result.data;
    }
    
    static validateReminderOptions(data: any): ReminderOptions {
        const result = ReminderOptionsSchema.safeParse(data);
        if (!result.success) {
            throw new ValidationException('Invalid reminder options', result.error);
        }
        return result.data;
    }
}

Security Architecture

Encryption Strategy

At-Rest Encryption

Sensitive data encryption for notification content:

public class NotificationEncryption {
    private static final String ALGORITHM = "AES/GCM/NoPadding";
    private static final int KEY_LENGTH = 256;
    
    public String encryptContent(String content, String keyId) {
        try {
            SecretKey key = getOrCreateKey(keyId);
            Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance(ALGORITHM);
            cipher.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, key);
            
            byte[] encryptedBytes = cipher.doFinal(content.getBytes(StandardCharsets.UTF_8));
            byte[] iv = cipher.getIV();
            
            // Combine IV + encrypted data
            byte[] combined = new byte[iv.length + encryptedBytes.length];
            System.arraycopy(iv, 0, combined, 0, iv.length);
            System.arraycopy(encryptedBytes, 0, combined, iv.length, encryptedBytes.length);
            
            return Base64.encodeToString(combined, Base64.DEFAULT);
        } catch (Exception e) {
            throw new EncryptionException("Failed to encrypt content", e);
        }
    }
}

Key Management

Secure key storage using Android Keystore:

public class NotificationKeyManager {
    private static final String KEY_ALIAS = "DailyNotificationKey";
    private static final String ANDROID_KEYSTORE = "AndroidKeyStore";
    
    public SecretKey getOrCreateKey(String keyId) {
        try {
            KeyStore keyStore = KeyStore.getInstance(ANDROID_KEYSTORE);
            keyStore.load(null);
            
            if (keyStore.containsAlias(KEY_ALIAS)) {
                return (SecretKey) keyStore.getKey(KEY_ALIAS, null);
            } else {
                return createNewKey();
            }
        } catch (Exception e) {
            throw new KeyManagementException("Failed to get encryption key", e);
        }
    }
    
    private SecretKey createNewKey() {
        try {
            KeyGenerator keyGenerator = KeyGenerator.getInstance(KeyProperties.KEY_ALGORITHM_AES, ANDROID_KEYSTORE);
            KeyGenParameterSpec keyGenParameterSpec = new KeyGenParameterSpec.Builder(KEY_ALIAS,
                    KeyProperties.PURPOSE_ENCRYPT | KeyProperties.PURPOSE_DECRYPT)
                    .setBlockModes(KeyProperties.BLOCK_MODE_GCM)
                    .setEncryptionPaddings(KeyProperties.ENCRYPTION_PADDING_NONE)
                    .setKeySize(KEY_LENGTH)
                    .build();
            
            keyGenerator.init(keyGenParameterSpec);
            return keyGenerator.generateKey();
        } catch (Exception e) {
            throw new KeyManagementException("Failed to create encryption key", e);
        }
    }
}

Permission Architecture

Android 13+ Permission Handling

Graceful permission management with user education:

export class NotificationPermissionManager {
    async checkPermissions(): Promise<PermissionStatus> {
        const platform = Capacitor.getPlatform();
        if (platform === 'web') {
            return { granted: false, reason: 'Web platform not supported' };
        }
        
        // Check POST_NOTIFICATIONS permission (Android 13+)
        const hasNotificationPermission = await this.checkNotificationPermission();
        
        // Check SCHEDULE_EXACT_ALARM permission (Android 12+)
        const hasExactAlarmPermission = await this.checkExactAlarmPermission();
        
        return {
            granted: hasNotificationPermission && hasExactAlarmPermission,
            notificationPermission: hasNotificationPermission,
            exactAlarmPermission: hasExactAlarmPermission
        };
    }
    
    async requestPermissions(): Promise<boolean> {
        const status = await this.checkPermissions();
        
        if (!status.notificationPermission) {
            await this.requestNotificationPermission();
        }
        
        if (!status.exactAlarmPermission) {
            await this.requestExactAlarmPermission();
        }
        
        return status.granted;
    }
}

Permission UX Flow

User-friendly permission requests with education:

export class PermissionUXManager {
    async showPermissionRationale(): Promise<void> {
        const rationale = `
            Daily notifications help you stay on track with your TimeSafari goals.
            
            We need:
            • Notification permission to show reminders
            • Exact alarm permission for precise timing
            
            You can change these settings later in your device settings.
        `;
        
        await this.showDialog({
            title: 'Enable Notifications',
            message: rationale,
            buttons: [
                { text: 'Not Now', role: 'cancel' },
                { text: 'Enable', handler: () => this.requestPermissions() }
            ]
        });
    }
}

Performance Architecture

Background Processing

WorkManager Integration

Efficient background work with deduplication:

public class DailyNotificationWorker extends Worker {
    private static final ConcurrentHashMap<String, AtomicBoolean> activeWork = new ConcurrentHashMap<>();
    private static final ConcurrentHashMap<String, Long> workTimestamps = new ConcurrentHashMap<>();
    
    @Override
    public Result doWork() {
        String workKey = createWorkKey(notificationId, action);
        
        // Prevent duplicate work execution
        if (!acquireWorkLock(workKey)) {
            Log.d(TAG, "Skipping duplicate work: " + workKey);
            return Result.success();
        }
        
        try {
            // Check if work already completed
            if (isWorkAlreadyCompleted(workKey)) {
                Log.d(TAG, "Work already completed: " + workKey);
                return Result.success();
            }
            
            // Execute actual work
            Result result = executeWork();
            
            // Mark as completed if successful
            if (result == Result.success()) {
                markWorkAsCompleted(workKey);
            }
            
            return result;
        } finally {
            releaseWorkLock(workKey);
        }
    }
}

Work Deduplication Strategy

Atomic locks prevent race conditions:

private boolean acquireWorkLock(String workKey) {
    AtomicBoolean lock = activeWork.computeIfAbsent(workKey, k -> new AtomicBoolean(false));
    boolean acquired = lock.compareAndSet(false, true);
    
    if (acquired) {
        workTimestamps.put(workKey, System.currentTimeMillis());
        Log.d(TAG, "Acquired work lock: " + workKey);
    }
    
    return acquired;
}

private void releaseWorkLock(String workKey) {
    AtomicBoolean lock = activeWork.remove(workKey);
    workTimestamps.remove(workKey);
    
    if (lock != null) {
        lock.set(false);
        Log.d(TAG, "Released work lock: " + workKey);
    }
}

Database Performance

Query Optimization

Efficient queries with proper indexing:

// Optimized query for ready notifications
@Query("SELECT * FROM notification_content WHERE scheduled_time <= :currentTime AND delivery_status != 'delivered' ORDER BY scheduled_time ASC LIMIT 50")
List<NotificationContentEntity> getNotificationsReadyForDelivery(long currentTime);

// Optimized query for user notifications
@Query("SELECT * FROM notification_content WHERE timesafari_did = :timesafariDid AND created_at > :sinceTime ORDER BY scheduled_time ASC")
List<NotificationContentEntity> getRecentNotificationsByUser(String timesafariDid, long sinceTime);

// Optimized analytics query
@Query("SELECT notification_type, COUNT(*) as count FROM notification_content GROUP BY notification_type")
List<NotificationTypeCount> getNotificationCountsByType();

Background Thread Execution

Non-blocking operations for UI responsiveness:

public class DailyNotificationStorageRoom {
    private final ExecutorService executorService = Executors.newFixedThreadPool(4);
    
    public CompletableFuture<Boolean> saveNotificationContent(NotificationContentEntity content) {
        return CompletableFuture.supplyAsync(() -> {
            try {
                contentDao.insertNotification(content);
                return true;
            } catch (Exception e) {
                Log.e(TAG, "Failed to save notification", e);
                return false;
            }
        }, executorService);
    }
    
    public CompletableFuture<List<NotificationContentEntity>> getNotificationsReadyForDelivery() {
        return CompletableFuture.supplyAsync(() -> {
            long currentTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
            return contentDao.getNotificationsReadyForDelivery(currentTime);
        }, executorService);
    }
}

Memory Management

Efficient Data Structures

Memory-conscious data handling:

public class NotificationContentEntity {
    // Use primitive types where possible
    private long scheduledTime;        // Instead of Date object
    private int priority;              // Instead of enum
    private boolean vibrationEnabled;  // Instead of Boolean
    
    // Lazy loading for large fields
    private String encryptedContent;   // Load only when needed
    private String metadata;           // Parse only when accessed
    
    // Efficient string operations
    public boolean isExpired() {
        long expirationTime = createdAt + (ttlSeconds * 1000);
        return System.currentTimeMillis() > expirationTime;
    }
}

Migration Strategy

From SharedPreferences to Room

Migration Process

Step-by-step migration from legacy storage:

public class StorageMigrationManager {
    
    public void migrateToRoom(Context context) {
        Log.d(TAG, "Starting migration from SharedPreferences to Room");
        
        // 1. Export existing data
        Map<String, Object> legacyData = exportSharedPreferencesData(context);
        
        // 2. Transform to Room entities
        List<NotificationContentEntity> entities = transformToRoomEntities(legacyData);
        
        // 3. Import to Room database
        importToRoomDatabase(entities);
        
        // 4. Verify migration
        boolean success = verifyMigration(entities.size());
        
        // 5. Clean up legacy data
        if (success) {
            cleanupLegacyData(context);
            Log.d(TAG, "Migration completed successfully");
        } else {
            Log.e(TAG, "Migration failed, keeping legacy data");
        }
    }
    
    private Map<String, Object> exportSharedPreferencesData(Context context) {
        SharedPreferences prefs = context.getSharedPreferences("DailyNotificationPrefs", Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
        Map<String, ?> allData = prefs.getAll();
        
        Map<String, Object> exportedData = new HashMap<>();
        for (Map.Entry<String, ?> entry : allData.entrySet()) {
            if (entry.getKey().startsWith("notification_")) {
                exportedData.put(entry.getKey(), entry.getValue());
            }
        }
        
        return exportedData;
    }
}

Data Transformation

Convert legacy format to Room entities:

private List<NotificationContentEntity> transformToRoomEntities(Map<String, Object> legacyData) {
    List<NotificationContentEntity> entities = new ArrayList<>();
    
    for (Map.Entry<String, Object> entry : legacyData.entrySet()) {
        try {
            // Parse legacy JSON format
            String jsonString = (String) entry.getValue();
            JsonObject jsonObject = JsonParser.parseString(jsonString).getAsJsonObject();
            
            // Create Room entity
            NotificationContentEntity entity = new NotificationContentEntity();
            entity.id = jsonObject.get("id").getAsString();
            entity.title = jsonObject.get("title").getAsString();
            entity.body = jsonObject.get("body").getAsString();
            entity.scheduledTime = jsonObject.get("scheduledTime").getAsLong();
            entity.timezone = jsonObject.get("timezone").getAsString();
            entity.pluginVersion = PLUGIN_VERSION; // Set current version
            entity.createdAt = System.currentTimeMillis();
            entity.updatedAt = System.currentTimeMillis();
            
            entities.add(entity);
            
        } catch (Exception e) {
            Log.w(TAG, "Failed to transform legacy data: " + entry.getKey(), e);
        }
    }
    
    return entities;
}

Schema Evolution

Version Management

Database versioning for schema changes:

@Database(
    entities = {
        NotificationContentEntity.class,
        NotificationDeliveryEntity.class,
        NotificationConfigEntity.class
    },
    version = 1,  // Increment for schema changes
    exportSchema = false
)
public abstract class DailyNotificationDatabase extends RoomDatabase {
    
    // Migration from version 1 to 2
    static final Migration MIGRATION_1_2 = new Migration(1, 2) {
        @Override
        public void migrate(SupportSQLiteDatabase database) {
            // Add new columns
            database.execSQL("ALTER TABLE notification_content ADD COLUMN analytics_data TEXT");
            database.execSQL("ALTER TABLE notification_content ADD COLUMN priority_level INTEGER DEFAULT 0");
            
            // Create new indexes
            database.execSQL("CREATE INDEX idx_notification_content_priority ON notification_content(priority_level)");
        }
    };
}

Backward Compatibility

Graceful handling of schema changes:

public class SchemaCompatibilityManager {
    
    public void ensureSchemaCompatibility() {
        int currentVersion = getCurrentSchemaVersion();
        int targetVersion = getTargetSchemaVersion();
        
        if (currentVersion < targetVersion) {
            Log.d(TAG, "Upgrading schema from version " + currentVersion + " to " + targetVersion);
            performSchemaUpgrade(currentVersion, targetVersion);
        }
    }
    
    private void performSchemaUpgrade(int fromVersion, int toVersion) {
        for (int version = fromVersion + 1; version <= toVersion; version++) {
            Migration migration = getMigration(version - 1, version);
            if (migration != null) {
                migration.migrate(database.getOpenHelper().getWritableDatabase());
                Log.d(TAG, "Applied migration " + (version - 1) + " -> " + version);
            }
        }
    }
}

public class NotificationContentEntityTest {
    
    @Test
    public void testEntityCreation() {
        NotificationContentEntity entity = new NotificationContentEntity(
            "test-id", "1.0.0", "test-did", "reminder",

        database = Room.inMemoryDatabaseBuilder(context, DailyNotificationDatabase.class).build();
        dao = database.notificationContentDao();
    }
    
    @After
    public void closeDatabase() {
        database.close();

        NotificationContentEntity entity = createTestEntity();
        
        dao.insertNotification(entity);
        NotificationContentEntity retrieved = dao.getNotificationById(entity.id);
        
        assertNotNull(retrieved);
        assertEquals(entity.id, retrieved.id);
        assertEquals(entity.title, retrieved.title);
    }
    
    @Test
    public void testQueryByTimeSafariDid() {
        NotificationContentEntity entity1 = createTestEntity("did1");
        NotificationContentEntity entity2 = createTestEntity("did2");
        
        dao.insertNotification(entity1);
        dao.insertNotification(entity2);
        
        List<NotificationContentEntity> did1Notifications = dao.getNotificationsByTimeSafariDid("did1");
        assertEquals(1, did1Notifications.size());
        assertEquals("did1", did1Notifications.get(0).timesafariDid);
    }

    }
}

Logging Architecture

Structured Logging

Comprehensive logging for debugging and monitoring:

public class NotificationLogger {
    private static final String TAG = "DailyNotification";
    
    public static void logNotificationScheduled(String notificationId, long scheduledTime) {
        Log.d(TAG, String.format("DN|SCHEDULE notification_id=%s scheduled_time=%d", 
                notificationId, scheduledTime));
    }
    
    public static void logNotificationDelivered(String notificationId, long durationMs) {
        Log.d(TAG, String.format("DN|DELIVERED notification_id=%s duration_ms=%d", 
                notificationId, durationMs));
    }
    
    public static void logNotificationFailed(String notificationId, String errorCode, String errorMessage) {
        Log.e(TAG, String.format("DN|FAILED notification_id=%s error_code=%s error_message=%s", 
                notificationId, errorCode, errorMessage));
    }
    
    public static void logUserInteraction(String notificationId, String interactionType) {
        Log.d(TAG, String.format("DN|INTERACTION notification_id=%s interaction_type=%s", 
                notificationId, interactionType));
    }
}

Error Tracking

Comprehensive error tracking for debugging:

public class ErrorTrackingManager {
    
    public void trackError(String errorCode, String errorMessage, Exception exception) {
        ErrorReport report = new ErrorReport(
            errorCode,
            errorMessage,
            exception != null ? exception.getMessage() : null,
            System.currentTimeMillis(),
            getDeviceContext(),
            getPluginContext()
        );
        
        // Store error report
        storeErrorReport(report);
        
        // Log error
        Log.e(TAG, "Error tracked: " + errorCode + " - " + errorMessage, exception);
    }
    
    private DeviceContext getDeviceContext() {
        return new DeviceContext(
            Build.VERSION.SDK_INT,
            Build.MANUFACTURER,
            Build.MODEL,
            getBatteryLevel(),
            isDozeModeActive()
        );
    }
}
