Feature: Add Room DB to a module in the Project to store questions and answers.

[Tc2r1]

Setup Local storage in one of the modules inside the project by using Room db.

Most Android applications require local data storage. In the past years, we have achieved this through the use of SQLite databases. Room is a persistent library that is part of the Android jetpack. It is built on top of SQLite. The room persistent library has many advantages over raw SQLite.

Hi, I would like to try this one. We only have to add the db right? or we also have to insert questions and answers in the database by creating dao?

!assign

[Tc2r1]

@mksiddiq please insert questions and answers into the database by creating dao in the com/interviewprep/kotlinretrofit/repository/tc2rgithubrepository/source/local folder, or a similar path you'd create (different modules have different setups).

If its too hard to add the Dao for you, feel free to just add the db :) Pick a module you like (or are familiar with) to work in.

[mksiddiq]

Sure, I will work on it.

I am trying to implement the RoomDB for KotlinBase Module and there are already classes defined for Question and Answer instances so do I use typeconverters to store those instances into RoomDB or should I make new data classes for Answer and Question.
