Provides a simple way to view the contents of the in-app database for debugging purposes. No need to pull the database from a rooted phone.

Add the library as a dependency to your build.gradle

debugCompile 'im.dino:dbinspector:(insert latest version)@aar'

Check the latest version on Maven Central.

Declare DbInspectorActivity in your debug manifest (src/debug/AndroidManifest.xml)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <application>
        <activity
            android:name="im.dino.dbinspector.activities.DbInspectorActivity"
            android:label="Example DbInspector"
            android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Holo.Light.DarkActionBar"
            android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher_dbinspector">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>
    </application>
</manifest>

Now you have a launcher icon for viewing you in-app database which appears only on debug builds.

You could also omit the <intent-filter /> and open the activity programmatically by calling startActivity(). Feel free to use it however it suits you as long as you comply with the license.

DbInspector needs minSdk 14 to run, but it declares minSdk 7 so you can include it in your project which may support pre-ICS devices.

By default, when you run the app from Android Studio it may launch DbInspectorActivity instead of your launcher activity. You can override this behaviour by editing the run configurations, at the top next to the run button and selecting your apps entry activity.
