We need to implement a feature in our Android app that allows users to export and import data from the local database. Currently, our app utilizes Room for managing the local database. This feature will provide users with the ability to back up their data or transfer it between devices seamlessly.
Requirements
Export Functionality:
Users should be able to export specific data or the entire database.
Exported data should be stored in a format that can be easily transferred or backed up, such as CSV or JSON.
The export process should be user-friendly and intuitive.
Import Functionality:
Users should be able to import data into the app's local database.
Support for importing data from CSV, JSON, or other common formats.
The import process should handle data validation and ensure data integrity.
Integration with Room Database:
Ensure that exporting and importing functionalities seamlessly integrate with the existing Room database implementation.
Maintain compatibility with Room's database schema and data structures.
UI/UX Considerations:
Design intuitive user interfaces for initiating export and import operations.
Provide feedback to users during the export/import process, such as progress indicators or success/error messages.
Additional Information
Our app is built using Kotlin and utilizes the Room persistence library for managing the local database.
Consider performance implications, especially for large datasets, during export and import operations.
Test thoroughly to ensure the reliability and robustness of the export/import feature across different devices and scenarios.
