Migration to new Ionic + PouchDB new paths

[Thempra]

Hi,

I migrated my app from ionic V1 to Ionic V3, android works perfectly, but iOS don’t found old database, I jailbreak mobile and I the issue is:

-Old app save data at:
/private/var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/Library/Caches

-New app save data at:
/private/var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/Library/WebKit/WebsiteData/WebSQL

Why?? Can I force old path??

How are you writing and accessing that database?
Is this iOS or Android?

Same code for Android and iOS, the issue is only in iOS

let db = new PouchDB(‘mydatabase’);
db.get(‘configurations’).then((res: any) => {
…
});

Are you using the same version of that PouchDB library?
Sounds more like something the maintainers of that library might be able to answer.

it seems a very old bug, localstorage, localforage, …

Persist localstorage in cordova app when app updates via app store

I’m having a similar problem with localStorage but when I uninstall/reinstall the app and then I open the app from the AppStore/TestFlight app It skips some validations that rely on localStorage being empty is like if the context of the localStorage is being persistent when doing app-linking navigation on iOS9 (Opening the app from the appStore also adds a backButton on my app). This is just a guess, is hard to debug this corner case because the app in the store cannot be debugged.
