2017年11月，谷歌发布了房间持久性库。

从文档中可以看到:

Room持久库在SQLite上提供了一个抽象层 允许流畅的数据库访问，同时利用 SQLite。 该库可以帮助您在设备上创建应用程序数据的缓存 这个缓存，作为你的应用程序的单一 真实源，允许用户查看一致的密钥副本 应用程序中的信息，不管用户是否有 互联网连接。

当第一次创建或打开数据库时，Room数据库具有回调。可以使用create回调填充数据库。

Room.databaseBuilder(context.applicationContext,
        DataDatabase::class.java, "Sample.db")
        // prepopulate the database after onCreate was called
        .addCallback(object : Callback() {
            override fun onCreate(db: SupportSQLiteDatabase) {
                super.onCreate(db)
                // moving to a new thread
                ioThread {
                    getInstance(context).dataDao()
                                        .insert(PREPOPULATE_DATA)
                }
            }
        })
        .build()

这篇博文中的代码。

从我所看到的，你应该是一个已经有表设置和数据的数据库。然而，如果你愿意(取决于你拥有的应用程序类型)，你可以允许“升级数据库选项”。然后你要做的就是下载最新的sqlite版本，获得在线托管的文本文件的最新Insert/Create语句，执行这些语句，并从旧的db进行数据传输到新的db。

Android已经提供了一种版本感知的数据库管理方法。这种方法已经在Android应用程序的BARACUS框架中得到了利用。

它使您能够在应用程序的整个版本生命周期中管理数据库，能够将sqlite数据库从任何以前的版本更新到当前版本。

此外，它还允许您运行SQLite的热备份和热恢复。

我不是100%确定，但是针对特定设备的热恢复可能使您能够在应用程序中发布准备好的数据库。但我不确定数据库二进制格式，这可能特定于某些设备，供应商或设备代。

因为这些东西是Apache许可证2，所以可以随意重用代码的任何部分，这些代码可以在github上找到

编辑:

如果您只想传送数据，可以考虑在应用程序第一次启动时实例化和持久化pojo。BARACUS有一个内置的支持(内置的键值存储配置信息，例如。"APP_FIRST_RUN"加上一个后上下文引导钩子，以便在上下文上运行后启动操作)。这使得你可以在应用中使用紧密耦合的数据;在大多数情况下，这符合我的用例。

如果所需的数据不是很大(限制我不知道，将取决于很多东西)，你也可以从网站/网络应用下载数据(XML, JSON，无论什么)。接收到数据后，使用接收到的数据执行SQL语句，创建表并插入数据。

如果你的移动应用程序包含大量数据，稍后用更准确的数据或更改更新已安装的应用程序中的数据可能会更容易。

创建和更新数据库有两个选项。

One is to create a database externally, then place it in the assets folder of the project and then copy the entire database from there. This is much quicker if the database has a lot of tables and other components. Upgrades are triggered by changing the database version number in the res/values/strings.xml file. Upgrades would then be accomplished by creating a new database externally, replacing the old database in the assets folder with the new database, saving the old database in internal storage under another name, copying the new database from the assets folder into internal storage, transferring all of the data from the old database (that was renamed earlier) into the new database and finally deleting the old database. You can create a database originally by using the SQLite Manager FireFox plugin to execute your creation sql statements.

另一种选择是从sql文件内部创建数据库。这没有那么快，但是如果数据库只有几个表，用户可能不会注意到延迟。通过更改res/values/strings.xml文件中的数据库版本号来触发升级。然后通过处理一个升级sql文件来完成升级。数据库中的数据将保持不变，除非它的容器被删除，例如删除一个表。

下面的示例演示了如何使用这两种方法。

下面是一个create_database示例。sql文件。它将被放置在内部方法的项目资产文件夹中，或复制到SQLite管理器的“Execute SQL”中，以创建外部方法的数据库。(注意:注意关于Android需要的表的注释。)

--Android requires a table named 'android_metadata' with a 'locale' column
CREATE TABLE "android_metadata" ("locale" TEXT DEFAULT 'en_US');
INSERT INTO "android_metadata" VALUES ('en_US');

CREATE TABLE "kitchen_table";
CREATE TABLE "coffee_table";
CREATE TABLE "pool_table";
CREATE TABLE "dining_room_table";
CREATE TABLE "card_table"; 

下面是一个update_database示例。sql文件。它将被放置在内部方法的项目资产文件夹中，或复制到SQLite管理器的“Execute SQL”中，以创建外部方法的数据库。(注意:本例中包含的SQL解析器将忽略所有三种类型的SQL注释。)

--CREATE TABLE "kitchen_table";  This is one type of comment in sql.  It is ignored by parseSql.
/*
 * CREATE TABLE "coffee_table"; This is a second type of comment in sql.  It is ignored by parseSql.
 */
{
CREATE TABLE "pool_table";  This is a third type of comment in sql.  It is ignored by parseSql.
}
/* CREATE TABLE "dining_room_table"; This is a second type of comment in sql.  It is ignored by parseSql. */
{ CREATE TABLE "card_table"; This is a third type of comment in sql.  It is ignored by parseSql. }

--DROP TABLE "picnic_table"; Uncomment this if picnic table was previously created and now is being replaced.
CREATE TABLE "picnic_table" ("plates" TEXT);
INSERT INTO "picnic_table" VALUES ('paper');

下面是要添加到/res/values/strings.xml文件中的数据库版本号条目。

<item type="string" name="databaseVersion" format="integer">1</item>

下面是一个访问数据库并使用它的活动。(注意:如果数据库代码使用了大量资源，则可能需要在单独的线程中运行。)

package android.example;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase;
import android.os.Bundle;

/**
 * @author Danny Remington - MacroSolve
 * 
 *         Activity for demonstrating how to use a sqlite database.
 */
public class Database extends Activity {
     /** Called when the activity is first created. */
     @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);
        DatabaseHelper myDbHelper;
        SQLiteDatabase myDb = null;

        myDbHelper = new DatabaseHelper(this);
        /*
         * Database must be initialized before it can be used. This will ensure
         * that the database exists and is the current version.
         */
         myDbHelper.initializeDataBase();

         try {
            // A reference to the database can be obtained after initialization.
            myDb = myDbHelper.getWritableDatabase();
            /*
             * Place code to use database here.
             */
         } catch (Exception ex) {
            ex.printStackTrace();
         } finally {
            try {
                myDbHelper.close();
            } catch (Exception ex) {
                ex.printStackTrace();
            } finally {
                myDb.close();
            }
        }

    }
}

这里是数据库助手类，如果需要，数据库将在其中创建或更新。(注意:Android要求你创建一个扩展SQLiteOpenHelper的类，以便使用Sqlite数据库。)

2017年11月，谷歌发布了房间持久性库。

从文档中可以看到:

Room持久库在SQLite上提供了一个抽象层 允许流畅的数据库访问，同时利用 SQLite。 该库可以帮助您在设备上创建应用程序数据的缓存 这个缓存，作为你的应用程序的单一 真实源，允许用户查看一致的密钥副本 应用程序中的信息，不管用户是否有 互联网连接。

当第一次创建或打开数据库时，Room数据库具有回调。可以使用create回调填充数据库。

Room.databaseBuilder(context.applicationContext,
        DataDatabase::class.java, "Sample.db")
        // prepopulate the database after onCreate was called
        .addCallback(object : Callback() {
            override fun onCreate(db: SupportSQLiteDatabase) {
                super.onCreate(db)
                // moving to a new thread
                ioThread {
                    getInstance(context).dataDao()
                                        .insert(PREPOPULATE_DATA)
                }
            }
        })
        .build()
