I have created an sqlite database on a Java application and have pushed it to my android. I want to read this database (probably write into it later too). Most of the tutorials I have found so far create the DB within the android...
I don't think I need to override the onCreate() and onUpdate() methods of SQLiteOpenHelper class do I ? Also the part that in the below tutorial he has created the tables, since I already have my database
Any tutorial, sample code u guys might know of ?
public class DatabaseHandler extends SQLiteOpenHelper {
// All Static variables
// Database Version
private static final int DATABASE_VERSION = 1;
// Database Name
private static final String DATABASE_NAME = "contactsManager";
// Contacts table name
private static final String TABLE_CONTACTS = "contacts";
// Contacts Table Columns names
private static final String KEY_ID = "id";
private static final String KEY_NAME = "name";
private static final String KEY_PH_NO = "phone_number";
public DatabaseHandler(Context context) {
super(context, DATABASE_NAME, null, DATABASE_VERSION);
}
// Creating Tables
@Override
public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase db) {
String CREATE_CONTACTS_TABLE = "CREATE TABLE " + TABLE_CONTACTS + "("
+ KEY_ID + " INTEGER PRIMARY KEY," + KEY_NAME + " TEXT,"
+ KEY_PH_NO + " TEXT" + ")";
db.execSQL(CREATE_CONTACTS_TABLE);
}
// Upgrading database
@Override
public void onUpgrade(SQLiteDatabase db, int oldVersion, int newVersion) {
// Drop older table if existed
db.execSQL("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS " + TABLE_CONTACTS);
// Create tables again
onCreate(db);
}
I Simply need to open the DB I have in the memory, execute an sql query agianst my DB and get the result.
您必须在设备上拷贝,从资产到您的应用程序存储区中的DB(或其他可访问的位置),然后才能使用它。 你不能直接使用它了.apk文件中。
如何去了解它的一个例子:
public class DBAdapter {
// DB info
public static final String MAIN_DATABASE_NAME = "yourDB";
public static String MAIN_DB_PATH = "/data/data/your.package.name/databases/";
public static final int MAIN_DATABASE_VERSION = 1;
// database control
private DatabaseHelper mDbHelper;
private static SQLiteDatabase mDb;
private static Context mCtx;
private static class DatabaseHelper extends SQLiteOpenHelper {
DatabaseHelper(Context context, String dbname, int dbversion) {
super(context, dbname, null, dbversion);
if (checkDataBase(dbname)) {
openDataBase(dbname);
} else {
try {
this.getReadableDatabase();
copyDataBase(dbname);
this.close();
openDataBase(dbname);
} catch (IOException e) {
throw new Error("Error copying database");
}
Toast.makeText(context,
"Initial " + dbname + " database has been created",
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
@Override
public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase db) {
}
@Override
public void onUpgrade(SQLiteDatabase db, int oldVersion, int newVersion) {
}
}
public DBAdapter(Context ctx) {
DBAdapter.mCtx = ctx;
}
public DBAdapter open(String dbname, int dbversion) throws SQLException {
mDbHelper = new DatabaseHelper(mCtx, dbname, dbversion);
mDb = mDbHelper.getWritableDatabase();
return this;
}
public void close() {
mDbHelper.close();
}
private static void copyDataBase(String dbname) throws IOException {
InputStream myInput = mCtx.getAssets().open(dbname);
String outFileName = MAIN_DB_PATH + dbname;
OutputStream myOutput = new FileOutputStream(outFileName);
byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
int length;
while ((length = myInput.read(buffer)) > 0) {
myOutput.write(buffer, 0, length);
}
myOutput.flush();
myOutput.close();
myInput.close();
}
private static boolean checkDataBase(String dbname) {
SQLiteDatabase checkDB = null;
boolean exist = false;
try {
String db = MAIN_DB_PATH + dbname;
checkDB = SQLiteDatabase.openDatabase(db, null,
SQLiteDatabase.OPEN_READONLY);
} catch (SQLiteException e) {
Log.v("db log", "database does't exist");
}
if (checkDB != null) {
exist = true;
checkDB.close();
}
return exist;
}
private static void openDataBase(String dbname) throws SQLException {
String dbPath = MAIN_DB_PATH + dbname;
mDb = SQLiteDatabase.openDatabase(dbPath, null,
SQLiteDatabase.OPEN_READWRITE);
}
}
