LocalStorage

dstudentx

Where is the localStorage database located? I can't find it anywhere

Depends on the platform. This should return you the path:
@
QStandardPaths::standardLocations(QStandardPaths::DataLocation);
// or in Qt4:
QDesktopServices::storageLocation(QDesktopServices::DataLocation);
@

Sorry I mean on my local system.

Yes, I do mean the same. Run this code and you will get the path to your DB (or somewhere close).

You can specify the location of your database using this command :

For exemple to specify the current directory "./" you can use this command :

@viewer.engine()->setOfflineStoragePath(QString("./"));@

The name of the database is the md5 hash of the database name.

Thanks for the help.
I tried
@
viewer.engine()->setOfflineStoragePath(QString("./"));
@

but I'm not using c++
Can't I just have the offlinedatabase in my project folder like

desktop\project1\database_1

If you use c++ you will only have a main.cpp like this :

@#include <QApplication>

#include "qtquick2applicationviewer.h"

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
QApplication app(argc, argv);

QtQuick2ApplicationViewer viewer;
viewer.engine()->setOfflineStoragePath(QString("./"));
viewer.setSource(QUrl("main.qml"));
viewer.showFullScreen();

return app.exec&#40;&#41;;

}

So if you can use C++ i think it's the best idea.

Sorry I can't use C++ for this project.

on my mac. the localstorage db is located in a hidden folder.
@
/Library
/Application Support
/Qt Project
/QTQmlViewer
/QML
/OfflineStorage
/Databases
@
This seems mental to me.

Why can't I just have it in my project folder like
@
/Desktop
/qml_projects
/test_project
@
