How Save Data Persistent From PHP to Android

How i save data from PHP to android persistently?

Solution

  • Use HttpClient. Then, with your InputStream, check this link:

    http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/data/data-storage.html#filesInternal

    And write it to the file you want.

    A quick and dirty example:

    // This goes inside a try...
HttpClient htc = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpGet get = new HttpGet("http://www.google.com");
HttpResponse htr = null;
htr = htc.execute(get);
InputStream is = htr.getEntity().getContent();
File saveFile = new File(getApplicationContext().getFilesDir().getPath() + File.separatorChar + "datos.txt");
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(saveFile);
// Validate if exists and so on...
int c;
while ((c = is.read()) != -1) 
{
    fos.write(c);
}
// Catch, finally, close, etc...

    You may also want to buffer your reading and writing code.

    Another method would be using:

    InputStream is = URL("http://www.google.com").getContent();

    It's up to you. I like HttpClient 'cos you can handle more things.
