Re. `kodein-db`, am calling `val db = DB.open("bikeshare_db")` but getting

```org.kodein.db.leveldb.LevelDBException: NotFound: bikeshare_db/LOCK: No such file or directory```
it seemed from <https://docs.kodein.org/kodein-db/0.2.0/core/setup-database.html> that the default is to create the database if it does not exist?

This is maybe because you’re not in the app directory. Generally, in KMM projects we bind a DB factory with
```DB.factory.inDir(getApplicationFilesDirectoryPath(di))```
where `getApplicationFilesDirectoryPath` is an expect function

with actual on iOS
```actual fun getApplicationFilesDirectoryPath(di: DI): String =
    NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, true)[0] as String```
And Android
```actual fun getApplicationFilesDirectoryPath(di: DI): String =
    di.direct.instance&lt;Context&gt;(tag = "app").filesDir.absolutePath```


this code use Kodein-DI but I’m sur you know how to retrieve the app Context :wink:

Let us know if you need help. We definitely need to provide better docs and accessible code samples.

It’s our Dependency Injection main type, we use it to retrieve the app Context provided by a Kodein-DI module

but you’ll need to find a way (with Koin or manually) you get your Context

yeah, have same requirement for SQLDelight

<@U4BHM385D> would you mind taking a look over following to see if any glaring mistakes

Short one mostly aimed at giving flavour of what library provides along with sample code in the github repo

Will hopefully expand on that when I have time

Thanks a lot John. That’s a really nice introduction! :slightly_smiling_face:

No problem at all....very cool library!  BTW my changes to start using it are in master of <https://github.com/joreilly/BikeShare> now
