Module: Toybox.PersistedContent

Overview

The PersistedContent module allows access to stored routes, waypoints, and other stored user data.

This module provides an Iterator class that gives access to content stored on the device. Included content types are as follows:

Each of these objects can utilize System.Intents to to launch the appropriate application type for the content type (e.g. The workout might launch the workout player). This is typically used in conjunction with the Communications module to retrieve content of type .FIT and .GPX and later access it using the get methods provided within this module.

Note:

As a general rule, Fitness and Edge devices will support .FIT format. Outdoor devices will support .GPX format.

Example:

// Assumes content already saved on device
using Toybox.PersistedContent;
using Toybox.System;

var iterator = PersistedContent.getCourses; // Get the Iterator
var content = iterator.next();              // Get the next object in the iterator

var name = content.getName();               // Get the content name
var id = content.getId();                   // Get the content id
System.ExitTo(content.toIntent());          // Use the content for a System.Intent
