## Android

To use the <Link to={useBaseUrl("/docs/features/plugins/databases")}>Databases plugin</Link>, instantiate and add it in `FlipperClient`, as shown in the following code:

```java
import com.facebook.flipper.plugins.databases.DatabasesFlipperPlugin;

client.addPlugin(new DatabasesFlipperPlugin(context));
```

By default, it will list all Sqlite databases returned by the context. If you are storing a Sqlite database somewhere else, you can specify a `File` to it:

```java
client.addPlugin(new DatabasesFlipperPlugin(new SqliteDatabaseDriver(context, new SqliteDatabaseProvider() {
    @Override
    public List<File> getDatabaseFiles() {
        List<File> databaseFiles = new ArrayList<>();
        for (String databaseName : context.databaseList()) {
            databaseFiles.add(context.getDatabasePath(databaseName));
        }
        databaseFiles.add("...path_to_your_db...");
        return databaseFiles;
    }
})));
```

If you use a different type of database other than Sqlite, you can implement a driver to be able to access it via Flipper:

```java
client.addPlugin(new DatabasesFlipperPlugin(new DatabaseDriver(context) {
    @Override
    public List getDatabases() {
        return null;
    }

    @Override
    public List<String> getTableNames(DatabaseDescriptor databaseDescriptor) {
        return null;
    }

    @Override
    public DatabaseGetTableDataResponse getTableData(DatabaseDescriptor databaseDescriptor, String table, String order, boolean reverse, int start, int count) {
        return null;
    }

    @Override
    public DatabaseGetTableStructureResponse getTableStructure(DatabaseDescriptor databaseDescriptor, String table) {
        return null;
    }

    @Override
    public DatabaseExecuteSqlResponse executeSQL(DatabaseDescriptor databaseDescriptor, String query) {
        return null;
    }
    }));
```
