What is it?

The AGDroid CarStore project demonstrates how to include Store functionality in Android applications.

This simple project consists in CRUD for Android application.

When the application is deployed to an Android device, the application will show all previous data saved

How do I run it?

0. System Requirements

• Java 7
• Gradle 2.2.1
• Latest Android SDK and Platform version 21

1. Build Application

$ cd /path/to/carStore/
$ gradle clean build

2. Test Application

To deploy, run and debug the application on an Android device attached to your system, on the command line enter the following:

2.1) Install generated apk to device

$ cd /path/to/carStore

How does it work?

CarStoreApplication is invoked when open the application. The Application life cycle onStart is called creating and opening the Car Store database instance.

DataManager.config("carStore", SQLStoreConfiguration.class)
        .withContext(getApplicationContext())
        .forClass(Car.class)
        .store();

store = (SQLStore) DataManager.getStore("carStore");
store.openSync();

Collection<Car> cars = storeApplication.getStore().readAll();
