Content Provider

Dr. Leon Jololian

 Definition
A Content Provider implements a mechanism that
allows users to access data from other
applications.
The information is usually stored in databases or
flat files.
It supports the four basic CRUD operations:
Create, Read, Update and Delete.
Android implements some standard content
providers to access contacts, media files,
preference, etc.

Dr. Leon Jololian 2

 Contents URI
Data is accessed from a content provider by
specifying a URI: Scheme://Authority/Path/Id
Scheme: always content
Authority: reversed domain name followed by a
qualifier corresponding to a provider
Path: to the data (optional)
Id: optional, numeric. To access single record

Dr. Leon Jololian 3

ContentResolver and ContentProvider
An application accesses the data from a content
provider using a ContentResolver client object.
This ContentResolver object has methods that call
identically-named methods in the provider object,
an instance of one of the concrete subclasses of
ContentProvider.
The ContentResolver methods provide the basic
"CRUD" functions of persistent storage.

Dr. Leon Jololian 4

 The ContentResolver object in the client
application's process and the ContentProvider
object in the application that owns the
provider automatically handle inter-process
communication.
ContentProvider also acts as an abstraction
layer between its repository of data and the
external appearance of data as tables.
To access a provider, the application usually
has to request specific permissions in its
manifest file.

Dr. Leon Jololian 5

Implementing a Content Provider
It involves the following steps:
A class that extends ContentProvider
A contract class
The UriMatcher definition
The onCreate() method
The getType() method
The CRUD methods
The Android Manifest

Dr. Leon Jololian 6

Method Usage

onCreate() Prepares the content provider

getType(Uri) Returns the MIME type for this URI

delete(Uri uri, String selection, String[]

Deletes records
selectionArgs)

insert(Uri uri, ContentValues values) Adds records

query(Uri uri, String[] projection, String

selection, String[] selectionArgs, String Return records based on selection criteria
sortOrder)

update(Uri uri, ContentValues values,

Modifies data
String selection, String[] selectionArgs)
