VMXFoundry.OfflineObjects.reset

Offline objects reset function resets device database to the initial stage of the sync environment. Once the reset is successful, all data is removed from the database but the database table structure is preserved.

Note: Reset requires network connection, and it fetches the latest Volt MX Foundry app schema.

Volt MX Iris (JavaScript)

Signature

VMXFoundry.OfflineObjects.reset(options, successCallback, failureCallback)

Input Parameters

ParameterTypeDescriptionRequired
optionsJSONReset options such as device database, encryption passphrase and so on.Yes
successCallbackFunctionThe function is invoked on successful reset.Yes
failureCallbackFunctionThe function is invoked on an error with the cause of failure as an argument.Yes

Setup Options

Option Type Description Required
deviceDbEncryptionKey String Encryption passphrase must be a string with at least six characters long. For more information, refer Offline Objects Getting Started Guide.
Note: Not applicable for Mobile Web and Desktop Web channels.
No
deviceDbPath String Device database is created at the given deviceDbPath location. The default Offline Objects database path for Windows Kiosk applications is C:\Users\User\AppData\Local. You can use the deviceDbPath option to override the default path. This options helps you to install more than one Offline enabled application by using the Offline Objects database at desired location.
Note: This parameter is supported only for Windows Kiosk applications from V8 SP4 Fix Pack 44 onwards.
Important: The default Offline Objects database location for Windows Kiosk has been changed from C:\Users\User\AppData\Local to C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\AppID\Database from V8 SP4 Fix Pack 44. This impacts application upgrades that were built with the earlier versions of plugin.
To retain the existing Offline Objects database, rebuild the Kiosk application with the deviceDbPath option and pass the C:\Users\User\AppData\Local location as an input to the setup, reset, and drop APIs.
No
treatBooleanFieldValuesAsNumeric Boolean If the treatBooleanFieldValuesAsNumeric key is set to false, all the boolean field values are converted to boolean type (true or false) during upload session or on reading records from local device database. When the option is set to true, fallbacks to default implementation (uploading and reading boolean field values as numeric). By default, the key is set to True.
Note: Supported for iOS, Android and Windows from V8 SP4 Fix Pack 102 onward
No
