Android SQLite ListView With Examples

This document provides code examples for using an SQLite database to store and retrieve user data and display it in a ListView in an Android application. It creates a DbHandler class to perform CRUD operations on a userdetails table using SQLiteOpenHelper. The onCreate method defines the table structure. Methods are provided to insert, get, update, delete user data. Layout files define the UI with EditTexts to add data and a ListView to display it from the database.

Android SQLite ListView with Examples

SQLite is an open source light weight relational database management system (RDBMS) to perform
database operations, such as storing, updating, retrieving data from database. To know more about
SQLite, check this SQLite Tutorial with Examples.

Generally, in our android applications Shared Preferences, Internal Storage and External Storage options
are useful to store and maintain the small amount of data. In case, if we want to deal with large amount of
data, then SQLite database is the preferable option to store and maintain the data in structured format.

To know more about using SQLite Database in android applications, check this Android SQLite Database
Tutorial with Examples.

Now we will see how to create & insert data into SQLite Database and how to retrieve and show the data
in custom listview in android application with examples.

Android SQLite ListView Example

Following is the example of creating the SQLite database, insert and show the details from SQLite
database into android listview using SQLiteOpenHelper class.

Create a new android application using android studio and give names as SQLiteExample. In case if you
are not aware of creating an app in android studio check this article Android Hello World App.

Once we create an application, create a class file DbHandler.java in \java\com.tutlane.sqliteexample

path to implement SQLite database related activities for that right click on your application folder à Go to
New à select Java Class and give name as DbHandler.java.

Once we create a new class file DbHandler.java, open it and write the code like as shown below
DbHandler.java

package com.tutlane.sqliteexample;

import android.content.ContentValues;

import android.content.Context;

import android.database.Cursor;

import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase;

import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteOpenHelper;

import java.util.ArrayList;

import java.util.HashMap;

/**

* Created by tutlane on 06-01-2018.

public class DbHandler extends SQLiteOpenHelper {

private static final int DB_VERSION = 1;

private static final String DB_NAME = "usersdb";

private static final String TABLE_Users = "userdetails";

private static final String KEY_ID = "id";

private static final String KEY_NAME = "name";

private static final String KEY_LOC = "location";

private static final String KEY_DESG = "designation";

public DbHandler(Context context){

super(context,DB_NAME, null, DB_VERSION);

@Override

public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase db){

String CREATE_TABLE = "CREATE TABLE " + TABLE_Users + "("

+ KEY_ID + " INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT," + KEY_NAME + " TEXT,"

+ KEY_LOC + " TEXT,"

+ KEY_DESG + " TEXT"+ ")";

db.execSQL(CREATE_TABLE);

@Override

public void onUpgrade(SQLiteDatabase db, int oldVersion, int newVersion){

// Drop older table if exist

db.execSQL("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS " + TABLE_Users);

// Create tables again

onCreate(db);

// CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) Operations * //

// Adding new User Details

void insertUserDetails(String name, String location, String designation){

//Get the Data Repository in write mode

SQLiteDatabase db = this.getWritableDatabase();

//Create a new map of values, where column names are the keys
ContentValues cValues = new ContentValues();

cValues.put(KEY_NAME, name);

cValues.put(KEY_LOC, location);

cValues.put(KEY_DESG, designation);

// Insert the new row, returning the primary key value of the new row

long newRowId = db.insert(TABLE_Users,null, cValues);

db.close();

// Get User Details

public ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>> GetUsers(){

SQLiteDatabase db = this.getWritableDatabase();

ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>> userList = new ArrayList<>();

String query = "SELECT name, location, designation FROM "+ TABLE_Users;

Cursor cursor = db.rawQuery(query,null);

while (cursor.moveToNext()){

HashMap<String,String> user = new HashMap<>();

user.put("name",cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(KEY_NAME)));

user.put("designation",cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(KEY_DESG)));

user.put("location",cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(KEY_LOC)));

userList.add(user);

return userList;

}
// Get User Details based on userid

public ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>> GetUserByUserId(int userid){

SQLiteDatabase db = this.getWritableDatabase();

ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>> userList = new ArrayList<>();

String query = "SELECT name, location, designation FROM "+ TABLE_Users;

Cursor cursor = db.query(TABLE_Users, new String[]{KEY_NAME, KEY_LOC, KEY_DESG},

KEY_ID+ "=?",new String[]{String.valueOf(userid)},null, null, null, null);

if (cursor.moveToNext()){

HashMap<String,String> user = new HashMap<>();

user.put("name",cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(KEY_NAME)));

user.put("designation",cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(KEY_DESG)));

user.put("location",cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(KEY_LOC)));

userList.add(user);

return userList;

// Delete User Details

public void DeleteUser(int userid){

SQLiteDatabase db = this.getWritableDatabase();

db.delete(TABLE_Users, KEY_ID+" = ?",new String[]{String.valueOf(userid)});

db.close();

}
// Update User Details

public int UpdateUserDetails(String location, String designation, int id){

SQLiteDatabase db = this.getWritableDatabase();

ContentValues cVals = new ContentValues();

cVals.put(KEY_LOC, location);

cVals.put(KEY_DESG, designation);

int count = db.update(TABLE_Users, cVals, KEY_ID+" = ?",new String[]{String.valueOf(id)});

return count;

If you observe above code, we implemented all SQLite Database related activities to perform CRUD
operations in android application.

Now open activity_main.xml file from \res\layout folder path and write the code like as shown below.

activity_main.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="match_parent"

android:layout_height="match_parent">

<TextView

android:id="@+id/fstTxt"

android:layout_width="wrap_content"

android:layout_height="wrap_content"

android:layout_marginLeft="100dp"

android:layout_marginTop="150dp"
android:text="Name" />

<EditText

android:id="@+id/txtName"

android:layout_width="wrap_content"

android:layout_height="wrap_content"

android:layout_marginLeft="100dp"

android:ems="10"/>

<TextView

android:id="@+id/secTxt"

android:layout_width="wrap_content"

android:layout_height="wrap_content"

android:text="Location"

android:layout_marginLeft="100dp" />

<EditText

android:id="@+id/txtLocation"

android:layout_width="wrap_content"

android:layout_height="wrap_content"

android:layout_marginLeft="100dp"

android:ems="10" />

<TextView

android:id="@+id/thirdTxt"

android:layout_width="wrap_content"

android:layout_height="wrap_content"

android:text="Designation"
android:layout_marginLeft="100dp" />

<EditText

android:id="@+id/txtDesignation"

android:layout_width="wrap_content"

android:layout_height="wrap_content"

android:layout_marginLeft="100dp"

android:ems="10" />

<Button

android:id="@+id/btnSave"

android:layout_width="wrap_content"

android:layout_height="wrap_content"

android:layout_marginLeft="100dp"

android:text="Save" />

</LinearLayout>

Now we will create another layout resource file details.xml in \res\layout path to show the details in
custom listview from SQLite Database for that right click on your layout folder à Go to New à select
Layout Resource File and give name as details.xml.

Once we create a new layout resource file details.xml, open it and write the code like as shown below
details.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

android:layout_width="fill_parent"

android:layout_height="fill_parent"

android:orientation="vertical" >

<ListView

android:id="@+id/user_list"

android:layout_width="fill_parent"

android:layout_height="wrap_content"

android:dividerHeight="1dp" />

<Button

android:id="@+id/btnBack"

android:layout_width="wrap_content"

android:layout_height="wrap_content"

android:layout_gravity="center"

android:layout_marginTop="20dp"

android:text="Back" />

</LinearLayout>

Create an another layout file (list_row.xml) in /res/layout folder to show the data in listview, for that right
click on layout folder à add new Layout resource file à Give name as list_row.xml and write the code
like as shown below.
list_row.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

android:layout_width="fill_parent"

android:layout_height="wrap_content"

android:orientation="horizontal"

android:padding="5dip" >

<TextView

android:id="@+id/name"

android:layout_width="wrap_content"

android:layout_height="wrap_content"

android:textStyle="bold"

android:textSize="17dp" />

<TextView

android:id="@+id/designation"

android:layout_width="wrap_content"

android:layout_height="wrap_content"

android:layout_below="@id/name"

android:layout_marginTop="7dp"

android:textColor="#343434"

android:textSize="14dp" />

<TextView

android:id="@+id/location"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"

android:layout_height="wrap_content"

android:layout_alignBaseline="@+id/designation"

android:layout_alignBottom="@+id/designation"

android:layout_alignParentRight="true"

android:textColor="#343434"

android:textSize="14dp" />

</RelativeLayout>

Now open your main activity file MainActivity.java from \java\com.tutlane.sqliteexample path and write
the code like as shown below
MainActivity.java

package com.tutlane.sqliteexample;

import android.content.Intent;

import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;

import android.os.Bundle;

import android.view.View;

import android.widget.Button;

import android.widget.EditText;

import android.widget.Toast;

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

EditText name, loc, desig;

Button saveBtn;

Intent intent;

@Override

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

name = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.txtName);

loc = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.txtLocation);

desig = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.txtDesignation);

saveBtn = (Button)findViewById(R.id.btnSave);

saveBtn.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override

public void onClick(View v) {

String username = name.getText().toString()+"\n";

String location = loc.getText().toString();

String designation = desig.getText().toString();

DbHandler dbHandler = new DbHandler(MainActivity.this);

dbHandler.insertUserDetails(username,location,designation);

intent = new Intent(MainActivity.this,DetailsActivity.class);

startActivity(intent);

Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Details Inserted

Successfully",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

});

If you observe above code, we are taking entered user details and inserting into SQLite database and
redirecting the user to another activity.

Now we will create another activity file DetailsActivity.java in \java\com.tutlane.sqliteexample path to

show the details from SQLite database for that right click on your application folder à Go to New à select
Java Class and give name as DetailsActivity.java.

Once we create a new activity file DetailsActivity.java, open it and write the code like as shown below
DetailsActivity.java

package com.tutlane.sqliteexample;

import android.content.Intent;

import android.os.Bundle;

import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;

import android.view.View;

import android.widget.Button;

import android.widget.ListAdapter;

import android.widget.ListView;

import android.widget.SimpleAdapter;

import java.util.ArrayList;

import java.util.HashMap;

/**

* Created by tutlane on 05-01-2018.

public class DetailsActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

Intent intent;

@Override

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

setContentView(R.layout.details);
DbHandler db = new DbHandler(this);

ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>> userList = db.GetUsers();

ListView lv = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.user_list);

ListAdapter adapter = new SimpleAdapter(DetailsActivity.this, userList, R.layout.list_row,new

String[]{"name","designation","location"}, new int[]{R.id.name, R.id.designation, R.id.location});

lv.setAdapter(adapter);

Button back = (Button)findViewById(R.id.btnBack);

back.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

@Override

public void onClick(View v) {

intent = new Intent(DetailsActivity.this,MainActivity.class);

startActivity(intent);

});

If you observe above code, we are getting the details from SQLite database and binding the details to
android listview. Now we need to add this newly created activity in AndroidManifest.xml file in like as
shown below.
AndroidManifest.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

package="com.tutlane.sqliteexample">

<application

android:allowBackup="true"

android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"

android:label="@string/app_name"

android:roundIcon="@mipmap/ic_launcher_round"

android:supportsRtl="true"

android:theme="@style/AppTheme">

<intent-filter>

<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />

</intent-filter>

</activity>

<activity android:name=".DetailsActivity" android:label="SQLite Example - Details"></activity>

</application>

</manifest>

If you observe above example, we are saving entered details in SQLite database and redirecting the user
to another activity file (DetailsActivity.java) to show the users details and added all the activities in
AndroidManifest.xml file.
Output of Android SQLite ListView Example

When we run above example in android emulator we will get a result like as shown below.

If you observe above result, the entered user details are storing in SQLite database and redirecting the
user to another activity file to show the user details from SQLite Database in listview. After that, if we click
on Back button, it will redirect user to login page.

This is how we can get the data from SQLite database and bind it to custom listview in android
applications based on our requirements.
