Transfering app data to the pc

Solar2D Android

Hey guys,

I am working on a puzzle app and I had this idea. I wanted to program the puzzles right from my android device, that is, edit the puzzles from there, save them, and later on transfer to the pc.

I have managed to create such app. I can edit puzzles from my device, save and load them, but I can’t seem to find an alternative to transfer the puzzles to my pc.

Now, I know the internal folders are hidden (I am using system.DocumentsDirectory). But the puzzles are saved in plain .txt files, and I really wanted to transfer them to my pc, otherwise, there’s no point in making this app. Is there any way around? e.g. email them? I don’t know, I’m looking for a simple solution here.

Thanks in advance!! :slight_smile:

email them to yourself?

ftp them to a FTP server?

I’m doing something similar.  To get my data I upload it to my FTP server.  To do so I use this mod http://developer.coronalabs.com/code/ftp-helper

I’ve modified it to be a newer style module, but that’s really simple to do.

Cheers.
