Moving a file from the project folder to the data directory at runtime
Hello,
My game has a SQLite database stored as a .sqdb file at Application.persistentDataPath. I'd like to have default content in the database. I was thinking I could keep a .sqdb file in the project folder and copy it over to the data directory the first time the user opens the app. I'm not sure how to accomplish that though.
I figured it out. Here it is if anyone's curious. Make sure you're using System.IO.
public void CopyFileIfNonexistent (string fileName) {
string dataPath = Application.persistentDataPath + "/" + fileName;
string assetPath = "Assets/Mobile/Resources/" + fileName;
if(!File.Exists(dataPath)) {
// File doesn't exist, move it from assets folder to data directory
File.Copy(assetPath, dataPath);
}
}
