In android, we have a different storage options such as shared preferences, internal storage, external storage, SQLite storage, etc. to store and retrieve the application data based on our requirements.
In previous chapters, we learned how to use shared preferences, internal storage, external storage and now we will see how to use SQLite Database option to store structured data in a private database.
SQLite is an open source light weight relational database management system (RDBMS) to perform database operations, such as storing, updating, retrieving data from database. To know more about SQLite, check this SQLite Tutorial with Examples.
Generally, in our android applications Shared Preferences, Internal Storage and External Storage options are useful to store and maintain the small amount of data. In case, if we want to deal with large amount of data, then SQLite database is the preferable option to store and maintain the data in structured format.
By default, Android comes with built-in SQLite Database support so we don’t need to do any configurations.
Just like we save the files on device’s internal storage, Android stores our database in a private disk space that’s associated to our application and the data is secure, because by default this area is not accessible to other applications.
The package android.database.sqlite contains all the required API’s to use SQLite database in our android applications.
Now we will see how to create database and required tables in SQLite and perform CRUD (insert, update, delete and select) operations in android applications.
Create Database and Tables using SQLite Helper
In android, by using SQLiteOpenHelper class we can easily create required database and tables for our application. To use SQLiteOpenHelper, we need to create a subclass that overrides the onCreate() and onUpgrade() call-back methods.
Following is the code snippet of creating database and tables using SQLiteOpenHelper class in our android application.
public class DbHandler extends SQLiteOpenHelper {
private static final int DB_VERSION = 1;
private static final String DB_NAME = "usersdb";
private static final String TABLE_Users = "userdetails";
private static final String KEY_ID = "id";
private static final String KEY_NAME = "name";
private static final String KEY_LOC = "location";
private static final String KEY_DESG = "designation";
public DbHandler(Context context){
super(context,DB_NAME, null, DB_VERSION);
}
@Override
public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase db){
String CREATE_TABLE = "CREATE TABLE " + TABLE_Users + "("
+ KEY_ID + " INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT," + KEY_NAME + " TEXT,"
+ KEY_LOC + " TEXT,"
+ KEY_DESG + " TEXT"+ ")";
db.execSQL(CREATE_TABLE);
}
@Override
public void onUpgrade(SQLiteDatabase db, int oldVersion, int newVersion){
// Drop older table if exist
db.execSQL("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS " + TABLE_Users);
// Create tables again
onCreate(db);
}
}
private static final int DB_VERSION = 1;
private static final String DB_NAME = "usersdb";
private static final String TABLE_Users = "userdetails";
private static final String KEY_ID = "id";
private static final String KEY_NAME = "name";
private static final String KEY_LOC = "location";
private static final String KEY_DESG = "designation";
public DbHandler(Context context){
super(context,DB_NAME, null, DB_VERSION);
}
@Override
public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase db){
String CREATE_TABLE = "CREATE TABLE " + TABLE_Users + "("
+ KEY_ID + " INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT," + KEY_NAME + " TEXT,"
+ KEY_LOC + " TEXT,"
+ KEY_DESG + " TEXT"+ ")";
db.execSQL(CREATE_TABLE);
}
@Override
public void onUpgrade(SQLiteDatabase db, int oldVersion, int newVersion){
// Drop older table if exist
db.execSQL("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS " + TABLE_Users);
// Create tables again
onCreate(db);
}
}
If you observe above code snippet, we are creating database “usersdb” and table “userdetails” using SQLiteOpenHelper class by overriding onCreate and onUpgrade methods.
Method | Description |
---|---|
onCreate() | This method is called only once throughout the application after database is created and the table creation statements can be written in this method. |
onUpgrade() | This method is called whenever there is an updation in database like modifying the table structure, adding constraints to database, etc. |
Now we will see how to perform CRUD (create, read, delete and update) operations in android applications.
Insert Data into SQLite Database
In android, we can insert data into SQLite database by passing ContentValues to insert() method.
Following is the code snippet to insert data into SQLite database using insert() method in android application.
//Get the Data Repository in write modeSQLiteDatabase db = this.getWritableDatabase();//Create a new map of values, where column names are the keysContentValues cValues = new ContentValues();
cValues.put(KEY_NAME, name);
cValues.put(KEY_LOC, location);
cValues.put(KEY_DESG, designation);// Insert the new row, returning the primary key value of the new rowlong newRowId = db.insert(TABLE_Users,null, cValues);
cValues.put(KEY_NAME, name);
cValues.put(KEY_LOC, location);
cValues.put(KEY_DESG, designation);// Insert the new row, returning the primary key value of the new rowlong newRowId = db.insert(TABLE_Users,null, cValues);
If you observe above code, we are getting the data repository in write mode and adding required values to columns and inserting into database.
Read the Data from SQLite Database
In android, we can read the data from SQLite database using query() method in android applications.
Following is the code snippet to read the data from SQLite Database using query() method in android application.
//Get the Data Repository in write modeSQLiteDatabase db = this.getWritableDatabase();
Cursor cursor = db.query(TABLE_Users, new String[]{KEY_NAME, KEY_LOC, KEY_DESG}, KEY_ID+ "=?",new String[]{String.valueOf(userid)},null, null, null, null);
Cursor cursor = db.query(TABLE_Users, new String[]{KEY_NAME, KEY_LOC, KEY_DESG}, KEY_ID+ "=?",new String[]{String.valueOf(userid)},null, null, null, null);
If you observe above code, we are getting the details from required table using query() method based on our requirements.
Update Data in SQLite Database
In android, we can update the data in SQLite database using update() method in android applications.
Following is the code snippet to update the data in SQLite database using update() method in android application.
//Get the Data Repository in write modeSQLiteDatabase db = this.getWritableDatabase();
ContentValues cVals = new ContentValues();
cVals.put(KEY_LOC, location);
cVals.put(KEY_DESG, designation);int count = db.update(TABLE_Users, cVals, KEY_ID+" = ?",new String[]{String.valueOf(id)});
ContentValues cVals = new ContentValues();
cVals.put(KEY_LOC, location);
cVals.put(KEY_DESG, designation);int count = db.update(TABLE_Users, cVals, KEY_ID+" = ?",new String[]{String.valueOf(id)});
If you observe above code, we are updating the details using update() method based on our requirements.
Delete Data from SQLite Database
In android, we can delete data from SQLite database using delete() method in android applications.
Following is the code snippet to delete the data from SQLite database using delete() method in android application.
//Get the Data Repository in write modeSQLiteDatabase db = this.getWritableDatabase();
db.delete(TABLE_Users, KEY_ID+" = ?",new String[]{String.valueOf(userid)});
db.delete(TABLE_Users, KEY_ID+" = ?",new String[]{String.valueOf(userid)});
If you observe above code, we are deleting the details using delete() method based on our requirements.
Now we will see how to create sqlite database and perform CRUD (insert, update, delete, select) operations on SQLite Database in android application with examples.
Android SQLite Database Example
Following is the example of creating the SQLite database, insert and show the details from SQLite database into android listview using SQLiteOpenHelper class.
Create a new android application using android studio and give names as SQLiteExample. In case if you are not aware of creating an app in android studio check this article Android Hello World App.
Once we create an application, create a class file DbHandler.java in \java\com.tutlane.sqliteexample path to implement SQLite database related activities for that right click on your application folder à Go to New à select Java Class and give name as DbHandler.java.
Once we create a new class file DbHandler.java, open it and write the code like as shown below

<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity android:name=".DetailsActivity" android:label="SQLite Example - Details"></activity>
</application>
</manifest>
If you observe above example, we are saving entered details in SQLite database and redirecting the user to another activity file (DetailsActivity.java) to show the users details and added all the activities in AndroidManifest.xml file.
Output of Android SQLite Database Example
When we run above example in android emulator we will get a result like as shown below.
If you observe above result, the entered user details are storing in SQLite database and redirecting the user to another activity file to show the user details from SQLite database. After that, if we click on Back button, it will redirect user to login page.
This is how we can use SQLite database to perform CRUD (insert, update, delete and select) operations in android applications to store and retrieve data from SQLite database based on our requirements.
