Saferoom migration to SQLCipher latest version

[sunilsunny565]

I'm trying migrate from using https://github.com/commonsguy/cwac-saferoom to SQLCipher library as Saferoom is no more maintained. I didn't had any issues with SafeRoom I was using "com.commonsware.cwac:saferoom:1.2.1" which is using SQLCipher version 4.2.0 and this is how I'm using it.

dbBuilder.openHelperFactory(SafeHelperFactory(dbKey, SafeHelperFactory.POST_KEY_SQL_V3))
                //If the database hasn't been encrypted, encrypt it
                if (SQLCipherUtils.getDatabaseState(context, Common.config().dbName()) == SQLCipherUtils.State.UNENCRYPTED) {
                    SQLCipherUtils.encrypt(context, Common.config().dbName(), dbKey)
                }

Where dbBuilder is just Room.databaseBuilder

Now to to update to SQLCipher :4.5.2 replaced above code with

 val factory = SupportFactory(SQLiteDatabase.getBytes(dbKey))
                dbBuilder.openHelperFactory(factory)

And after this change I started to get this error
file is not a database: , while compiling: select count(*) from sqlite_master;
which I feel happens when the dbKey is different, but in this case I haven't changed the key.
Am I missing something in this migration? @commonsguy , can you please help?.

I'm just answering my own question I had to pass SQLiteDatabaseHook and that resolved the issue

         val hook: SQLiteDatabaseHook = object : SQLiteDatabaseHook {
                    override fun preKey(database: SQLiteDatabase) {
                        // do nothing
                    }

                    override fun postKey(database: SQLiteDatabase?) {
                        database?.rawExecSQL(POST_KEY_SQL_MIGRATE)
                    }
                }
                val factory = SupportFactory(SQLiteDatabase.getBytes(dbKey), hook)
                dbBuilder.openHelperFactory(factory)
            }

const val POST_KEY_SQL_MIGRATE = "PRAGMA cipher_migrate;"

it might be a good idea if this can be mentioned in the wiki I guess.
