Samik R commented on CB-1191: ----------------------------- Hi Joe, Thanks for the comment. Is there any reasoning for this decision? I am curious how you determine which feature should go in core and which feature shouldn't? Thanks. > Load/create a database in SD card > --------------------------------- > > Key: CB-1191 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-1191 > Project: Apache Cordova > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Android, WP7 > Reporter: Samik R > Labels: android, ios, sqlite > Original Estimate: 48h > Remaining Estimate: 48h > > I would like to be able to access or create an SQLite database on SD card in > android/WP7 or in the persistent storage in iOS. Currently I am working in > Android, so I will limit the comments to Android for now. > Looking at the android code for openDatabase call in Storage.java, I see that > if the path of the DB is null, it is set to app-path. But there is no way to > set the path of the DB or pass it in the call. It seems like an easy fix: we > need a call to set the path to a string, or accept a FileEntry object as the > database in the same openDatabase call. > Here is the relevant part of the code: > (Accessed from https://github.com/apache/incubator-cordova-android > as file: apache-incubator-cordova-android-2.0.0-16-g81ab0a4.zip) > << > public void openDatabase(String db, String version, String display_name, > long size) { > // If database is open, then close it > if (this.myDb != null) { > this.myDb.close(); > } > // If no database path, generate from application package > if (this.path == null) { > this.path = > this.cordova.getActivity().getApplicationContext().getDir("database", > Context.MODE_PRIVATE).getPath(); > } > this.dbName = this.path + File.pathSeparator + db + ".db"; > this.myDb = SQLiteDatabase.openOrCreateDatabase(this.dbName, null); > } > >> > Please let me know if I am missing something. I am new to this stuff. > Thanks and regards. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
