M micro Well-Known Member Licensed User Longtime User Aug 18, 2020 #1 Hi to all I proceed with the tests, but just to learn and try something different, I have never seriously developed webapplication (the time available is always short) The function File it's not used by BANano, then for write and read a file map (in Dir.App or other path) how can i proceed? I don't know if you need to transform it into json format and write/read it with inlinephp..... Some simple examples, thanks.

Click to expand... Ok clear enough, thanks. but I don't have to choose the file with fileExplorer, I already know the path, so I have to access it directly but I don't know how to provide the path to BANano Example: File "settings.cfg" in BANano.ASSETS_FOLDER Last edited: Aug 18, 2020 Upvote 0

This is correct. As I said, without user interaction, a web brower/javascript is not allowed to access anything on your local hard disk. This is browser build-in security so no one can access your private files. Upvote 0

If this is located on your webserver, you can fetch it with a BANanoFetch: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/banano-the-fetch-api.106666/#content But then this of course means your config.cfg is for grabs for anyone just by putting an url to the file in their browser. If your config.cfg contains sensitive data, it will be readable by anyone. Upvote 0
