.SH "NAME"
tdbc::sqlite3 \- TDBC driver for the SQLite3 database manager
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
package require \fBtdbc::sqlite3 1.0\fR
.sp
\fBtdbc::sqlite3::connection create\fR \fIdb\fR \fIfileName\fR ?\fI-option value...\fR?
.BE
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
The \fBtdbc::sqlite3\fR driver provides a database interface that conforms
to Tcl DataBase Connectivity (TDBC) and allows a Tcl script to connect
to a SQLite3 database.  It is also provided
as a worked example of how to write a database driver in Tcl, so that
driver authors have a starting point for further development.
.PP
Connection to a SQLite3 database is established by invoking
\fBtdbc::sqlite3::connection create\fR, passing it a string to be used
as the connection handle followed by the file name of
the database. The side effect of \fBtdbc::sqlite3::connection
create\fR is to create a new database connection..
As an alternative, \fBtdbc::sqlite::connection new\fR may be used to create
a database connection with an automatically assigned name. The return value
from \fBtdbc::sqlite::connection new\fR is the name that was chosen for the
connection handle. See
\fBtdbc::connection(n)\fR for the details of how to use the connection
to manipulate a database.
.SH "CONFIGURATION OPTIONS"
.PP
The standard configuration options \fB-encoding\fR, \fB-isolation\fR,
\fB-readonly\fR and \fB-timeout\fR are all recognized, both on
\fBtdbc::sqlite3::connection create\fR and on the \fBconfigure\fR
method of the resulting connection.
.PP
Since the encoding of a SQLite3 database is always well known, the
\fB-encoding\fR option accepts only \fButf-8\fR as an encoding and
always returns \fButf-8\fR for an encoding. The actual encoding may be
set using a SQLite3 \fBPRAGMA\fR statement when creating a new
database.
.PP
Only the isolation levels \fBreaduncommitted\fR and \fBserializable\fR
are implemented. Other isolation levels are promoted to
\fBserializable\fR.
.PP
The \fB-readonly\fR flag is not implemented. \fB-readonly 0\fR is
accepted silently, while \fB-readonly 1\fR reports an error.
.SH "BUGS"
If any column name is not unique among the columns in a result set, the
results of \fB-as dicts\fR returns will be missing all but the rightmost
of the duplicated columns. This limitation can be worked around by adding
appropriate \fBAS\fR clauses to \fBSELECT\fR statements to ensure that
all returned column names are unique.  Plans are to fix this bug by using
a C implementation of the driver, which will also improve performance
significantly.
