Module table 

This module defines traits for table representations and stores some shared table constants.

Zero-Allocation Streaming API

This module provides zero-allocation streaming capabilities for all database tables through a callback-based API.

use imessage_database::{
   error::table::TableError,
   tables::{
       table::{get_connection, Table},
       messages::Message,
   },
   util::dirs::default_db_path
};

let db_path = default_db_path();
let db = get_connection(&db_path).unwrap();

Message::stream(&db, |message_result| {
    match message_result {
        Ok(message) => println!("Message: {:#?}", message),
        Err(e) => eprintln!("Error: {:?}", e),
    }
   Ok::<(), TableError>(())
}).unwrap();

Note: you can substitute TableError with your own error type if you want to handle errors differently. See the Table::stream method for more details.
