Realm is a mobile database that runs directly on phones, tablets or wearables. It supports all major mobile and desktop operating systems, such as iOS, Android, UWP, macOS, Linux, and Windows. For a full list of supported platforms and their versions, check out the Platform and Framework Compatibility section in the documentation.

Features

  • Mobile-first: Realm is the first database built from the ground up to run directly inside phones, tablets, and wearables.
  • Simple: Data is directly exposed as objects and queryable by code, removing the need for ORM's riddled with performance & maintenance issues. Plus, we've worked hard to keep our API down to just a few common classes: most of our users pick it up intuitively, getting simple apps up & running in minutes.
  • Modern: Realm supports relationships, generics, vectorization and modern C# idioms.
  • Fast: Realm is faster than even raw SQLite on common operations while maintaining an extremely rich feature set.
  • Device Sync: Makes it simple to keep data in sync across users, devices, and your backend in real-time. Get started for free with a template application and create the cloud backend.

Getting Started

Model definition

Define a persistable model by inheriting from IRealmObject. The Realm source generator will generate an implementation for most of the functionality, so you only need to specify the properties you want to persist:

public partial class Person : IRealmObject
{
    [PrimaryKey]
    public ObjectId Id { get; private set; } = ObjectId.GenerateNewId();

    public string FirstName { get; set; }

    public string LastName { get; set; }

    public DateTimeOffset Birthday { get; set; }

    // You can define constructors as usual
    public Person(string firstName, string lastName)
    {
        FirstName = firstName;
        LastName = lastName;
    }
}

Open a Realm file

Open a Realm instance by calling Realm.GetInstance:

// You can provide a relative or an absolute path to the Realm file or let
// Realm use the default one.
var realm = Realm.GetInstance("people.realm");

CRUD operations

Add, read, update, and remove objects by calling the corresponding API on the Realm instance:

// Always mutate the Realm instance in a write transaction
realm.Write(() =>
{
    realm.Add(new Person("John", "Smith"));
});

var peopleWithJ = realm.All<Person>().Where(p => p.FirstName.StartsWith("J"));

// All Realm collections and objects are reactive and implement INotifyCollectionChanged/INotifyPropertyChanged

peopleWithJ.AsRealmCollection().CollectionChanged += (s, e) =>
{
    // React to notifications
};

For more examples, see the detailed instructions in our User Guide to add Realm to your solution.

## 12.5.0 (2025-01-02)

### Breaking Changes
* Support for UWP on arm32 has been removed due to the Windows SDK no longer supporting 32-bit ARM. (PR [#3683](https://github.com/realm/realm-dotnet/pull/3683))
* Support for Xamarin projects has been deprecated. While we still expect the SDK to work, we no longer actively test against Xamarin as it has been end-of-life'd by Microsoft since May. (PR [#3683](https://github.com/realm/realm-dotnet/pull/3683))
* Support for .NET 6 is deprecated. We still expect everything to work, but we'll retarget the SDK to the latest LTS version (8.0) in a future release. (PR [#3683](https://github.com/realm/realm-dotnet/pull/3683))

### Fixed
* Fix crash during client app shutdown when Logger log level is set higher than Info. (Core 14.12.1)
* If File::rw_lock() fails to open a file the exception message does not contain the filename. (Core 14.12.1)
* Fallback to hashed filename will fail if length of basename is between 240 and 250. (Core 14.12.1)
* Having a query with a number of predicates ORed together may result in a crash on some platforms (strict weak ordering check failing on iphone). (Core 14.13.0)

### Compatibility
* Realm Studio: 15.0.0 or later.

### Internal
* Using Core 14.13.0.
