Intra-device Sync

Couchbase Lite Database Sync - Synchronize changes between databases on the same device

Overview

This is an Enterprise Edition feature.

Couchbase Lite supports replication between two local databases. This allows a Couchbase Lite replicator to store data on secondary storage. It is especially useful in scenarios where a user’s device may be damaged and its data moved to a different device.

Example 1. Replication between Local Databases

val repl = Replicator(
    ReplicatorConfigurationFactory.newConfig(
        database = database1,
        target = DatabaseEndpoint(database2),
        type = ReplicatorType.PULL
    )
)

// Start the replicator
repl.start()
// (be sure to hold a reference somewhere that will prevent it from being GCed)
replicator = repl
