Pre-populated sqlite db on android developer app

[mamcgree]

Greetings Chris..
I needed to open a pre-populated sqlite db in android I added your cordova-sqlite-ext and it worked fine when I compiled it for android. I added it to the "Andoid Developer App" but it will not open the existing db in the www folder using
var db = window.sqlitePlugin.openDatabase({name: "my.db", createFromLocation: 1});
It assumes it's not there and creates a new one in the databases folder of the Andoid Developer App. Do have an suggestions.
Thank you in advance for your time..
Cheers..

Hi @mamcgree,

To be honest I have never really worked with the PhoneGap Android Developer App. Can you try creating a plain Cordova app using the Cordova CLI and start with a very simple test?

The automatic test suite includes spec/www/spec/pre-populated-db-test.js which verifies that the database file is not overwritten if it is already present.

Thanks!

Hi Chris..

Thanks for the quick response.. I'm new to phonegap. I compiled the
developer app with your plugin, which allows the sqlite to function, but
it doesn't handle and existing db. Developer app does not currently
handle sqlite. I will poke around but I am not very experienced in this
area.

Thanks again for your quick response..

Cheers..
