Use system file picker (SAF) for DB export/import #1283
Conversation
This commit transitions database import/export to use the Storage Access Framework (SAF). This allows users to choose export locations outside of app-private storage. Key Changes: - SettingsMaintenanceFragment now uses ActivityResultLauncher with Intent.ACTION_CREATE_DOCUMENT for export and Intent.ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT for import, allowing users to select file locations using the system file picker. - DBHelper.importDatabase and DBHelper.exportDatabase now accept Uri parameters (Uri is returned from system file picker). - DBHelper.getDbUri method added to retrieve the RunnerUp database file as a Uri. - FileUtil.copyFile is overloaded to support copying content between Uris using ContentResolver. - Added new string resources for import/export cancellation messages.
This commit introduces a validation step to ensure that the selected Uri for database import is a valid RunnerUp SQLite database.
This commit introduces an error dialog that is displayed to the user when they attempt to import an invalid RunnerUp database file. A new string resource import_error_invalid_database was added for the dialog message.

The string resource Maintenance_explanation_summary needs to be updated. Current value:
Since it's already translated into all languages, how do I update the text? @gerhardol? |
You update the code, all translatable text in the preferences. Around releases I usually do that loop a couple of times, see some of my commits. |
Thanks!
I still don´t understand. =( The string resource I need to update is common.R.string.Maintenance_explanation_summary. It is already translated into 8 other languages. After I update the English text, do I delete these 8 other translations? |

Previously, database exports were saved to app-private storage, making it difficult (if not impossible) for users to access the database file outside of RunnerUp. This PR refactors the database import and export functionality from using app-private storage to using the Storage Access Framework (SAF). This framework allows users to interact with a system picker to select files from shared storage, not requiring any system permissions. For RunnerUp, users may now choose where their database backups are saved and accessed from.
Fixes #1083. Fixes #1153.
