Unable to build my app after connecting it to sqlite - sqlite

Question

Ok so when i run my app i just get a : System.AggregateException which i tried to spot with the debuguer
and it brings me to this function in the AgendaDatabase.cs file :
public AgendaDatabase(string dbPath)
{
database = new SQLiteAsyncConnection(dbPath);
database.CreateTableAsync<Agenda>().Wait();
}
Before targetting the System.AggregateException with the debugger i also had a SystemAggregateException for this function in AcceuilPage.xaml.cs:
protected override async void OnAppearing()
{
base.OnAppearing();
AgendaCollection.ItemsSource = await App.Database.GetAgendasAsync();
}
and when i execute one more it says : unhandled exception : SQLite.SQLiteException: no such table: Agenda which is weird cause the code is supposed to create it if it doesn't exist.
This is the tutorial i am following : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/xamarin/get-started/quickstarts/database?pivots=windows
Thanks for your help.
I've done the steps mutiple time, even listened to similar tutorial with no solution on how to fix it : heres the code :
AgendaDatabase.cs (in Database folder)
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
using SQLite;
using Calculette.Models;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
namespace Calculette.Database
{
public class AgendaDatabase
{
readonly SQLiteAsyncConnection database;
public AgendaDatabase(string dbPath)
{
database = new SQLiteAsyncConnection(dbPath);
database.CreateTableAsync<Agenda>().Wait();
}
public Task<List<Agenda>> GetAgendasAsync()
{
return database.Table<Agenda>().ToListAsync();
}
public Task<Agenda> GetAgendaAsync(int id)
{
return database.Table<Agenda>()
.Where(i => i.ID == id)
.FirstOrDefaultAsync();
}
public Task<int> SaveAgendaAsync(Agenda agenda)
{
if (agenda.ID != 0)
{
return database.UpdateAsync(agenda);
}
else
{
return database.InsertAsync(agenda);
}
}
public Task<int> DeleteAgendaAsync(Agenda agenda)
{
return database.DeleteAsync(agenda);
}
}
}
Agenda.cs in the Models folder
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Collections.ObjectModel;
using System.Text;
using SQLite;
using Calculette.Database;
namespace Calculette.Models
{
public class Agenda
{
[PrimaryKey, AutoIncrement]
public int ID { get; set; }
public string Topic { get; set; }
public string Duration { get; set; }
public DateTime Date { get; set; }
public ObservableCollection<Speaker> Speakers { get; set; }
public string Color { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }

}
}

Answer 1

First of all, you must specify database model, because sqlite is not able to create table from your model.
namespace Calculette.Models
{
[Table("Agenda")]
public class Agenda
{
[PrimaryKey, AutoIncrement, Column("ID")]
public int ID { get; set; }
[Column("Topic")]
public string Topic { get; set; }
[Column("Duration")]
public string Duration { get; set; }
//public DateTime Date { get; set; }
//public ObservableCollection<Speaker> Speakers { get; set; }
[Column("Color")]
public string Color { get; set; }
[Column("Name")]
public string Name { get; set; }
[Column("Time")]
public string Time { get; set; }
}
}
Be aware that sqlite does not support
public DateTime Date { get; set; }
public ObservableCollection<Speaker> Speakers { get; set; }
