Creating Database from SD card using Android Jellybean

Question

Can anyone can create a database from SD card using Jellybean API 18?

but i should call this path like /storage/sdcard1. there are some many tutorials but does not work. Actually im using SQLiteOpenHelper.Some people says that if you create database from SD card, you dont need SQLiteOpenHelper.

What you need is just to change the path of your default SD card creation. — Ümañg ßürmån, Nov 06 '18 at 05:46
yes like File file = new File("/storage/sdcard1"); instead of Environment.etc — , Nov 06 '18 at 05:51
No, not like that, there is a different way of giving for Database. — Ümañg ßürmån, Nov 06 '18 at 05:58

Solution: You just have to modify the constructor in order to change it's path:

public class MySQLiteOpenHelper extends SQLiteOpenHelper {
    MySQLiteOpenHelper(Context context) {
        super(context, "/mnt/sdcard/mydb.db", null, 0);
    }
}

You can also get the folder string path and change it accordingly as you require. Ex: "/storage/emulated/0/folder/mydb.db"

Don't forget to add Write and Read Storage Permissions.

Try it, Hope it's helpful.
