CAPACITOR 3 (Master)

🚨 Since release 3.2.0-5 ->> 🚨

The Web plugin is now implemented based on the stencil companion jeep-sqlite@0.0.7 which is using sql.js@1.5.0 for database queries and localeforage@1.9.0for database persistency.

🚨 Since release 3.2.0-3 ->> 🚨

The Electron plugin is now based on @capacitor-community/electron@4.0.3 thanks to the hard and heavy work from Mike Summerfeldt IT-MikeS 👏 🙏

🚨 Since release 3.2.0-2 ->> 🚨 🚨 !!! for Electron developper, the Electron plugin is back !!! 🚨

Based on sqlite3, so without encryption The two listeners sqliteImportProgressEvent and sqliteExportProgressEvent are not available.

🚨 Since release 3.1.2 ->> 🚨

Thanks to Nirajhinge and Chris, an example of using the TypeORM driver in a Ionic/Vue app has been developed see https://github.com/jepiqueau/vue-typeorm-app.

🚨 Since release 3.0.0-rc.2 ->> 🚨

Thanks to Chris, a driver to TypeORM is now available

🚨 Since release 3.0.0-beta.13 ->> 🚨

GlobalSQLite secret and newsecret are deprecated
The user can now set its own secure secret (passphrase)
- use setEncryptionSecret ONCE to migrate encrypted databases from secret to secure stored secret
- use changeEncryptionSecret to change your secure stored secret
iOS used KeyChain service to store the secret
Android used Encrypted SharedPreferences to store the secret, the minimun sdk should be set to 23 (limitation from Google)

🚨 Since release 3.0.0-beta.13 ->> 🚨

🚨 Since release 3.0.0-beta.11 ->> 🚨

Checking of types has been removed in all methods of the plugin both iOS & Android. This has been achieved to allow the use of others RDBMS types. The type checking is now under the responsability of the developers.
NULL values are now returned as null
values for the query method is now an Array of any.
option to disable transaction for the execute, executeSet, run.

🚨 Since release 3.0.0-beta.11 <<- 🚨

The test has been achieved on:

REFACTOR (Move to branch 2.9.x)

The 2.9.x is now 🛑 NOT MAINTAINED ANYMORE 🛑.

The refactor offers now (since 2.9.0-beta.1) all the features that the previous was offering. It has been a quite heavy process, hoping that the developpers will take benefit from it.

The main reasons for it:

multiple database connections
db connector allowing for easy commands db.open(), db.close, ...
improve the response time of the encrypted database by removing the internal open and close database for each sqlite query
moving to the latest androidx.sqlite.db.xxx
offering encryption for Electron platform by using @journeyapps/sqlcipher on MacOs, !!! NOT ON WINDOWS !!!
cleaning and aligning the code between platforms
allowing developers to develop typeorm or spatialite drivers.

This was discussed lengthly in issue#1 and issue#52

Refactor available for Android, iOS and Electron platforms.

The test has been achieved on:

Other frameworks will be tested later

Stencil

@INITIAL 🛑 (Move to branch 2.4.x)

The 2.4.x is now 🛑 NOT MAINTAINED ANYMORE 🛑.

To install it

npm i --save @capacitor-community/sqlite@initial

The test has been achieved on:

Browser Support

The plugin follows the guidelines from the Capacitor Team,

Capacitor Browser Support

meaning that it will not work in IE11 without additional JavaScript transformations, e.g. with Babel.
