sqliteHow can I open multiple connections to an SQLite database?


To open multiple connections to an SQLite database, you can use the sqlite3 module in Python. Here is an example of code that will open two connections:

import sqlite3

# Open connection 1
conn1 = sqlite3.connect('my_database.db')

# Open connection 2
conn2 = sqlite3.connect('my_database.db')

The code consists of the following parts:

  1. import sqlite3 - imports the sqlite3 module which allows us to connect to an SQLite database.
  2. conn1 = sqlite3.connect('my_database.db') - establishes a connection to the database file my_database.db and stores it in the conn1 variable.
  3. conn2 = sqlite3.connect('my_database.db') - establishes a connection to the same database file my_database.db and stores it in the conn2 variable.

This code will open two connections to the same database file.
