This is actually a fully functional build except: * All internal shared libraries are static linked to make sure there is no interference with ports (and to reduce build time). * It does not have the python/perl/etc plugin or API support. * By default, it installs as "svnlite" rather than "svn". * If WITH_SVN added in make.conf, you get "svn". * If WITHOUT_SVNLITE is in make.conf, this is completely disabled. To be absolutely clear, this is not intended for any use other than checking out freebsd source and committing, like we once did with cvs. It should be usable for small scale local repositories that don't need the python/perl plugin architecture.

.SH NAME
|
|
.B sqlite3
|
|
\- A command line interface for SQLite version 3
|
|
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B sqlite3
|
|
.RI [ options ]
|
|
.RI [ databasefile ]
|
|
.RI [ SQL ]
|
|
|
|
.SH SUMMARY
|
|
.PP
|
|
.B sqlite3
|
|
is a terminal-based front-end to the SQLite library that can evaluate
|
|
queries interactively and display the results in multiple formats.
|
|
.B sqlite3
|
|
can also be used within shell scripts and other applications to provide
|
|
batch processing features.
|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
To start a
|
|
.B sqlite3
|
|
interactive session, invoke the
|
|
.B sqlite3
|
|
command and optionally provide the name of a database file. If the
|
|
database file does not exist, it will be created. If the database file
|
|
does exist, it will be opened.
|
|
|
|
For example, to create a new database file named "mydata.db", create
|
|
a table named "memos" and insert a couple of records into that table:
|
|
.sp
|
|
$
|
|
.B sqlite3 mydata.db
|
|
.br
|
|
SQLite version 3.1.3
|
|
.br
|
|
Enter ".help" for instructions
|
|
.br
|
|
sqlite>
|
|
.B create table memos(text, priority INTEGER);
|
|
.br
|
|
sqlite>
|
|
.B insert into memos values('deliver project description', 10);
|
|
.br
|
|
sqlite>
|
|
.B insert into memos values('lunch with Christine', 100);
|
|
.br
|
|
sqlite>
|
|
.B select * from memos;
|
|
.br
|
|
deliver project description|10
|
|
.br
|
|
lunch with Christine|100
|
|
.br
|
|
sqlite>
|
|
.sp
|
|
|
|
If no database name is supplied, the ATTACH sql command can be used
|
|
to attach to existing or create new database files. ATTACH can also
|
|
be used to attach to multiple databases within the same interactive
|
|
session. This is useful for migrating data between databases,
|
|
possibly changing the schema along the way.
|
|
|
|
Optionally, a SQL statement or set of SQL statements can be supplied as
|
|
a single argument. Multiple statements should be separated by
|
|
semi-colons.
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
.sp
|
|
$
|
|
.B sqlite3 -line mydata.db 'select * from memos where priority > 20;'
|
|
.br
|
|
text = lunch with Christine
|
|
.br
|
|
priority = 100
|
|
.br
|
|
.sp
|
|
|
|
.SS SQLITE META-COMMANDS
|
|
.PP
|
|
The interactive interpreter offers a set of meta-commands that can be
|
|
used to control the output format, examine the currently attached
|
|
database files, or perform administrative operations upon the
|
|
attached databases (such as rebuilding indices). Meta-commands are
|
|
always prefixed with a dot (.).
|
|
|
|
A list of available meta-commands can be viewed at any time by issuing
|
|
the '.help' command. For example:
|
|
.sp
|
|
sqlite>
|
|
.B .help
|

.nf
|
|
