“export ‘registerPlugin’ was not found in ‘@capacitor/core’

[DiappyMed]

Hello,

When i tried to build the project using Capacitor-sqlite, i had the following error:

ERROR in ./node_modules/@capacitor-community/sqlite/dist/esm/index.js 2:24-38 “export ‘registerPlugin’ was not found in ‘@capacitor/core’

Do you have any idea how i can resolve it?

Thanks a lot in advance,

@DiappyMed thanks for using the plugin which version of the plugin are you using ? which framework Ionic/Angular, Ionic/React, Ionic/Vue ? Did you look at the applications starter?

@DiappyMed You have to follow the instructions from the readme file. first install

npm i --save @capacitor/core@2.4.6
npm i --save @capacitor/android@2.4.6     // if you test on Android
npm i --save @capacitor/ios@2.4.6             // if you test on iOS
npm i --save-dev @capacitor/cli@2.4.6

when this is done install the plugin

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

and then

npm run build
npx cap add android      // if you test on Android
npx cap add ios              // if you test on iOS
npx cap sync
npm run build
npx cap copy
npx cap open android      // if you test on Android
npx cap open ios              // if you test on iOS

On Android, register the plugin in your main activity:

import com.getcapacitor.community.database.sqlite.CapacitorSQLite;

public class MainActivity extends BridgeActivity {

  @Override
  public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    // Initializes the Bridge
    this.init(
        savedInstanceState,
        new ArrayList<Class<? extends Plugin>>() {
          {
            // Additional plugins you've installed go here
            // Ex: add(TotallyAwesomePlugin.class);
            add(CapacitorSQLite.class);
          }
        }
      );
  }
}

Now it should work

Hello Jean Pierre, Thanks a lot, i upgraded my Capacitor/Core to 2.4.7 and it is working fine.

I am facing another difficulty when using osDatabase or isDBExists. I did run the code on android studio emulator or my real divice, but i always get this returned result, even when i do copy the database first:

"{"result":false,"message":"Not implemented on Web Platform"}"

how i did use it: CapacitorSQLite.isDatabase({database:databaseName}).then( (databaseExists) => { console.log("**++++++++++++++++++++", JSON.stringify(databaseExists)); if(databaseExists.result) { ...

Any advice on that please? When we use copyfromasset(), does it override the existing database?

Thank a lot again,

@DiappyMed i told you above register the plugin in your MainActivity.java file

import com.getcapacitor.community.database.sqlite.CapacitorSQLite;

public class MainActivity extends BridgeActivity {

  @Override
  public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    // Initializes the Bridge
    this.init(
        savedInstanceState,
        new ArrayList<Class<? extends Plugin>>() {
          {
            // Additional plugins you've installed go here
            // Ex: add(TotallyAwesomePlugin.class);
            add(CapacitorSQLite.class);
          }
        }
      );
  }
}

i think you should look at the documentation and at the different app starter before starting to use it
