Insert data from a csv file in a sqlite

I would like to insert data from a csv file in a sqlite for android. I added this code into the \ www \ js \app.js
I tried the csv located in different directories: \ www \ js and \ www

After creating the database, I can´t get to load the data from csv.

(.csv Example: firstName111, lastName111, telephone11, email11, note111)

angular.module('starter', ['ionic','ngIOS9UIWebViewPatch', 'starter.controllers', 'starter.services', 'ngMaterial', 'ngMessages', 'ngCordova'])
.run(function ($ionicPlatform, $cordovaSQLite, $rootScope, $ionicHistory, $state, $mdDialog, $mdBottomSheet) {

    //Create database table of contracts by using sqlite database.
    //Table schema :
    //Column	   Type	     Primary key
    //  id	        Integer	    Yes
    //  firstName	Text	    No
    //  lastName	Text	    No
    //  telephone	Text	    No
    //  email	    Text	    No
    //  note	    Text	    No
    //  createDate	DateTime	No
    //  age	        Integer	    No
    //  isEnable	Boolean	    No

    function initialSQLite() {
        db = window.cordova ? $cordovaSQLite.openDB("contract.db") : window.openDatabase("contract.db", "1.0", "GuiaVlaDB", -1);
        $cordovaSQLite.execute(db, "CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS contracts " +
            "( id           integer primary key   , " +
            "  firstName    text                  , " +
            "  lastName     text                  , " +
            "  telephone    text                  , " +
            "  email        text                  , " +
            "  note         text                  , " +
            "  createDate   dateTime              , " +
            "  age          integer               , " +
            "  isEnable     Boolean)                ");

			window.requestFileSystem(LocalFileSystem.PERSISTENT, 0, function(obtenerFS){
			obtenerFS.root.getFile("guia.csv", null,function(entrada){

Hi,

I think here csv file is not loading when you are trying to insert data into table.

Instead of doing this you can put this csv code in a separate .csv file and then load it using $http call, convert it into a JSON array and then insert it into your DB.
Hope it will work for you.

Hi Sorb,
