Deno SQLite3

Tags Doc Checks License Sponsor

The fastest and correct module for SQLite3 in Deno.

Example

import { Database } from "jsr:@db/sqlite@0.11";

const db = new Database("test.db");

const [version] = db.prepare("select sqlite_version()").value<[string]>()!;
console.log(version);

db.close();

Usage

Since this library depends on the unstable FFI API, you must pass --allow-env, --allow-ffi and --unstable-ffi flags. Network and FS permissions are also needed to download and cache prebuilt library.

You can also just use --allow-all / -A flag since FFI basically gives full access.

deno run -A --unstable-ffi <file>

See bench for benchmarks source.

Documentation

See doc.md for documentation.

Check out the complete API reference here.

Native Library

It will download and cache a prebuilt shared library from GitHub releases, for which it will need network and file system read/write permission.

If you want to use custom library, then you can set the DENO_SQLITE_PATH environment variable, to a fully specified path to the SQLite3 shared library.

Contributing

Code is formatted using deno fmt and linted using deno lint. Please make sure to run these commands before committing.

You can optionally build sqlite3 from source. Make sure that you have the submodule (git submodule update --init --recursive).

deno task build

When running tests and benchmarks, you use the DENO_SQLITE_LOCAL=1 env variable otherwise it won’t use to locally compiled SQLite library.

DENO_SQLITE_LOCAL=1 deno task bench
