sqliteHow can I use the SQLite API to query a database?


The SQLite API can be used to query a database by executing SQL statements. For example, the following code block can be used to query a database table called users and retrieve the name of each user:

SELECT name FROM users;

This will return a list of names, for example:

John
Jane
Bob

The following parts are used in the code above:

  • SELECT: This is an SQL keyword which specifies the data to be retrieved.
  • name: This is the column name in the users table which contains the name of the users.
  • FROM users: This specifies the table from which the data should be retrieved.

For more information on using the SQLite API to query a database, please refer to the SQLite documentation.
