Does exported app contain its database?

[ssquire]

When I export an app to give to a client is the database automatically contained in that export or do I need to export it separately?

[Jeffry Reed]

Hello Steven,

can you clarify which database you are referring to?

regards,
Jeff

Hello Steven,

No, the application contains the only source code and local resources but doesn't contain data. If you use Appery.io database - it is located on Appery.io servers

How would I package the database to give it to a client along with the code then Serhii?

[Serhii Kulibaba]

You can export the database and provide it to the client.
But in that case, he has to import it into his server.

If you want to use the local database (SQLite) - please save it into the SQL file and read it from the application.

"please save it into the SQL file and read it from the application."

Do you guys have documentation on how to do this?

[Serhii Kulibaba]

Sorry, but we don't have it. Unfortunately, this is outside the scope of our support. Please search online for an appropriate solution.

Serhii - I am merely asking how do I get the app and the database to my client upon project completion. This is reasonable and within scope isn't it?

[Serhii Kulibaba]

If you have to use the local database like SQLite, please use it like it is shown here: https://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/la...

If you have to use Appery.io database - you have to share it with your client.

It depends on what data and where?
