sqliteHow do I use the SQLite ZIP VFS to compress a database?
- Create a database and connect to it using the
sqlite3
module:import sqlite3 conn = sqlite3.connect('mydb.db')
- Register the ZIP VFS with SQLite:
conn.execute('pragma vfs_register(zipvfs);')
- Create a ZIP archive of the database:
conn.execute('pragma zipvfs_save(mydb.zip);')
- The database is now compressed in the ZIP archive.
