Syncing data files with iCloud or Device to Device

[DR White]

Where can I go to find information concerning syncing small simple data files from mobile app with iCloud between devices?

Thanks,

I suppose specialFolderPath("documents"). See http://livecode.wikia.com/wiki/IOS_filesystem

there is also the url way:

Code: Select all

put URL "binfile:/myfoldepath/myFile" into URL "iclouddriveapp://newfolderptah/myFile"

MaxV,

So far I have not been able to write and Read from iCloud.
Below is the script that I am using.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

David

put specialfolderpath("documents") & "/Pill_Pal_Contacts_Bin.txt" into tFile
put arrayEncode(tC) into url ("binfile:"& tFile)

answer "Writting to iCloud"

-- put URL "binfile:/myfoldepath/myFile" into URL "iclouddriveapp://newfolderptah/myFile"
---- Attempt to write to iCloud
put URL ("binfile:"& tFile) into URL "iclouddriveapp://newfolderptah/Pill_Pal_Contacts_Bin.txt"


---- Attempt to read from iCloud

put "iclouddriveapp://newfolderptah/Pill_Pal_Contacts_Bin.txt" into tFileCloud

answer "File Exist Test"
if there is a file url tFileCloud then ---- Reading file
answer "There is iCloud File"
end if

try:

Code: Select all

launch URL "iclouddriveapp://newfolderptah/Pill_Pal_Contacts_Bin.txt"

That does't work either
