I already have the webapp which will be convert to mobile app through Intel XDK but I dont know what option to choose regarding databases, I wanted to learn more about SQLite for this but I saw in some articles that SQLite is deprecated for this goal, am I wrong?
On the other hand is IndexedDB which I just read about today
I can´t find fresh info about this doubt, can you advice me please?
I would suggest using IndexedDB
rather than SQLite
. I found it difficult to find a proper plugin for SQLite
which is still supported and has some useful documentation.
I found a excellent plugin with excellent documentation also and support from the author for IndexedDB
. It is called Dexie and is described as a A Minimalistic Wrapper for IndexedDB. It also has a Github page which is located here.
Example
Some examples taken from their site.
Database Connection:
/*
|----------------------------|
| Make a database connection |
|----------------------------|
*/
var db = new Dexie('MyDatabase');
// Define a schema
db.version(1).stores({
friends: 'name, age'
});
// Open the database
db.open().catch(function(error) {
alert('Uh oh : ' + error);
});
Executing Queries:
/*
|-----------------------|
| Then run some queries |
|-----------------------|
*/
// Find some old friends
db.friends
.where('age')
.above(75)
.each (function (friend) {
console.log (friend.name);
});
// or make a new one
db.friends.add({
name: 'Camilla',
age: 25
});
