Can the clover device be used to store data from an application (using SQLite)?
Clover devices run Android and are capable of doing all the same things. SQLite and application storage are available yes. Clover Station, Mobile and Mini all have about 5GB in the data partition. However this space is shared by all applications for data and APK storage so keep your usage reasonable please.
Is it possible to provide guidelines on recommendations and management of SQLite on Clover Devices. Eg: Recommended DB Size, Recommended Rows per table, Recommended Columns per table specific to device type.
Clover devices are basically just like any consumer tablet or phone, you can assume similar performance characteristics to devices released in similar years. For example Clover Station was released in 2013 so assume similar performance to phones released that year. SQLite performance is highly dependent on usage so recommended you test on a real Clover device or get something similar if you are planning on doing anything out of the ordinary. Optimizing SQLite performance is subject that may require you do additional research outside this forum.
Thanks @Jacob Abrams.
Please confirm if Clover device provide File Manager folder to get stored .txt file manually, or is there any other folder that is visible on Clover device to get that file?
Actually I went through the Clover device but I could not find that folder to get the file.
Hi @Jacob Abrams,
Could you please suggest how we could find the stored .txt file on Clover Flex device manually ?
We do not know what you mean by "find the file". Typically you'd save a file, and you'd know the path where you saved the file. The link provided by Jacob above describes among other things where and how to store data files on Android devices. This applies to all Clover devices as well.
Our application runs on Clover devices at client side. We need to store a .txt file on Clover device to log the communication details between device and server. As we can see Clover has internal storage so definitely we would be able to store the file.
We could not find “File Manager” app on Clover device, so please could you suggest us how we can get that stored .txt file manually from the Clover devices.
For your information, Android devices provide “File Manager” app to store/fetch all the data on the device. In Android devices we can fetch file manually and programmatically.
I assume you mean for development purposes, not production. As you noted we do not have a file manager on the device. You could install one (on your development device). Otherwise you need to upload the file somewhere.
I'd suggest you just log to logcat. It's always there and you can get access to it anytime. If it's just for development you can write large amounts of data and not worry about crushing the device. Please do not leave massive logcat logging in for production builds though.
