Windows SQLite Database File Into Pythonista 3?
-
Hello all,
I have been learning Python on my Windows 7 platform. I just purchased Pythonista 3 for my iPad and am VERY excited to be able to continue my Python play on the go. I have been a life-long database developer and so my coding has mostly been around doing database "type things".
I have been able to create a SQLite db locally on my iPad... but what I would REALLY like is to copy over the one I've been populating for months over on Windows...
But for the life of me I CANNOT figure out how to get my jhs2016.db file over into the Pythonista files area so that I can use it with my Pythonista coding. I have tried "sending it" from Dropbox, OneDrive and iCould to Pythonista but it won't work.
Help!
Thanks for your help!
John

Another option if you don't want to use Dropbox is ftp. You can use stash to pip install pyftpdlib and then follow the example here: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pyftpdlib/
I just tested it with transferring an sqlite file and then opening it in Pythonista and it worked fine. -
Or you can use OMZ's script: https://gist.github.com/omz/1aec8a66a5d5d19a36ab
