sqflite create db method code example

Example 1: flutter sqflite DatabaseHelper

class Todo{
 int id;
 String itemName;
 String dateCreated;

 Todo(
     {this.id,
     this.itemName,
     this.dateCreated})

 //to be used when inserting a row in the table
 Map<String, dynamic> toMapWithoutId() {
   final map = new Map<String, dynamic>();
   map["item_name"] = itemName;
   map["date_created"] = dateCreated;
   return map;
 }

Map<String, dynamic> toMap() {
   final map = new Map<String, dynamic>();
   map["id"] = id;
   map["item_name"] = itemName;
   map["date_created"] = dateCreated;
   return map;
 }

 //to be used when converting the row into object
 factory Todo.fromMap(Map<String, dynamic> data) => new Todo(
     id: data['id'],
     itemName: data['item_name'],
     dateCreated: data['date_created']
 );
}

   _db = await openDatabase(path, version: 1, onCreate: _onCreate);
 }

 Database get db {
   return _db;
 }

 void _onCreate(Database db, int version) async {
   // When creating the db, create the table
   await db.execute(
