EdenMobile Debugging

Database on Android Device

To be able to view the EdenMobile database on an Android device, make sure that:

• the App is build with debug-option
• you have the Android Debug Bridge adb installed on your computer (part of the Android SDK)
• the device allows USB debugging (Settings=>Developer Options)

Steps:

1. Connect your device via USB
2. Copy the database file to the SD card (you have an SD card in the phone, don't you?)
3. Pull the database file to your development machine

Linux users can use the following script:

#!/bin/bash
PACKAGE=org.sahanafoundation.eden_mobile
FILENAME=emdb.db
adb shell run-as $PACKAGE chmod 777 /data/data/$PACKAGE/databases/
adb shell run-as $PACKAGE chmod 777 /data/data/$PACKAGE/databases/$FILENAME
adb shell cp /data/data/$PACKAGE/databases/$FILENAME /sdcard/
adb pull /sdcard/$FILENAME

(Windows users analogously, just not /bin/bash then ;))

Then use e.g. ​SQLiteBrowser to browse the database schema and data.
