sqliteHow do I use a SQLite client to access a database?


  1. Install a SQLite client, such as DB Browser for SQLite.
  2. Launch the client, and select File > Open Database to open an existing database or File > Create Database to create a new one.
  3. Once the database is open, you can execute SQL commands by typing them into the query window and clicking the Play button.
  4. For example, to list all tables in the database, you can run the SELECT name FROM sqlite_master WHERE type='table' statement:
SELECT name FROM sqlite_master WHERE type='table';

Output example

table1
table2
table3
  1. To view the data in a table, you can use the SELECT * FROM table_name statement:
SELECT * FROM table1;

Output example

field1 | field2 | field3
-----------------------------
value1 | value2 | value3
value4 | value5 | value6
  1. You can also use the client to create, modify, and delete tables and records.
  2. For more information on SQLite and how to use it, see the SQLite Documentation.
