web2py on android

[Paolo Amboni]

Is it possible to do something like that with web2py?

Android apps with Python, Flask and a WebView

Thanks!!

Any web app can run as an android app or ios app. What the server side is written in irrelevant.

One of the easiest ways is to use gonative.io but it is not free. 

Everything you see in the article you mention works if you replace Flask with web2py.

I am sure other users have other recommendations.

You can use web2py for build a ret_api server and build your app with NativeScript (Angular2), ionic or reactnative

Hi Paolo, in my experience with Android, do what this article describes is a really bad idea, the resources usage is very important in tablets and smartphones because of the little batteries they have, include a complete http server running inside an app will drain the battery considerably fast.

Hello,

Yes, you can write your backend Restful service with Web2py, and connect consumer web applications, android or iOS apps, etc.

I use to read ODoo web services, process data with Web2py and publish to customers with a Restfull service.
Web2py is perfect for this tasks. It is very fast and powerful to code the restful services and the web GUI is almost done out of the box.

Regards
Francisco.

what if I need to store data in the mobile when there is no internet connection and sync with the webserver when there is connection?

what db or sqlite, can I use?

[eric cuver]

you can use local storage for example :

var objet = { propriete1 : "valeur1", propriete2 : "valeur2" }; var monobjet_json = window.JSON.stringify(monobjet); window.localStorage.setItem("objet",monobjet_json);
