Question

Answer 1

To open prepopulated db in cordova project, you need to do 3 steps:

1. Copy .db file into main www directory

   Install this plugin and use copy method(this will copy the .db file to the specified directory for your os/device)

   Use this plugin to open the .db file

Thats it... :)

Answer 2

Hello I got the solution for this question.

while opening the database in the folling code

var db = window.sqlitePlugin.openDatabase({ name : "test_db.db" });

Add a parameter like this

var db = window.sqlitePlugin.openDatabase({ name : "test_db.db", createFromLocation : 1 });

Then it will take the database which you have kept in the www folder.
