I have developed an android app in react-native and expo. I have also published the app on google play.
Now, I have made some modifications on my SQLite DB tables locally.
Suppose, before the schema of a table was like this:
CREATE TABLE expenditures (id integer primary key, max_amount REAL not null);
And now I would like to change it to this:
CREATE TABLE expenditures (id integer primary key, max_amount TEXT not null);
Is there any way to run a method after a new update/upgrade on a production app (google play store)? That way I can alter the tables only once after the upgrade, and other newly installed users won't be affected by this function. I found two methods on native android:
- onCreate: Called for the first time when creation of tables are needed.
- onUpgrade: This method is called when database version is upgraded.
But since I have developed my app with react-native and expo, I can't use the above methods. Although I have found onUpgrade in the expo code, I am not sure how to use this feature in expo.
Or is there any better way to handle database migrations on a published app in react-native and expo?
from Sqlite table and database migrations on a Published app?
