sqlite3 - A command line interface for SQLite version 3

       This manual page was originally written by Andreas Rottmann <rotty@debian.org>, for the Debian  GNU/Linux
       system  (but may be used by others). It was subsequently revised by Bill Bumgarner <bbum@mac.com>, Laszlo
       Boszormenyi <gcs@debian.hu>, and the sqlite3 developers.

       To  start  a sqlite3 interactive session, invoke the 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:

       $ sqlite3mydata.db
       SQLite version 3.43.0 2023-08-11 17:45:23
       Enter ".help" for usage hints.
       sqlite> createtablememos(text,priorityINTEGER);
       sqlite> insertintomemosvalues('deliverprojectdescription',10);
       sqlite> insertintomemosvalues('lunchwithChristine',100);
       sqlite> select*frommemos;
       deliver project description|10
       lunch with Christine|100
       sqlite>

       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:

       $ sqlite3-linemydata.db'select*frommemoswherepriority>20;'
           text = lunch with Christine
       priority = 100

   SQLITEMETA-COMMANDS
       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:

       sqlite> .help

       The available commands differ by version and build options, so they are not listed here. Please refer  to
       your local copy for all available options.

sqlite3 reads an initialization file to set the configuration of the interactive environment.  Throughout
       initialization, any previously specified setting can be overridden.  The sequence of initialization is as
       follows:

       o The default configuration is established as follows:

       mode            = LIST
       separator       = "|"
       main prompt     = "sqlite> "
       continue prompt = "   ...> "

       o  If  the file ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/sqlite3/sqliterc or ~/.sqliterc exists, the first of those to be found
       is processed during startup.  It should generally only contain meta-commands.

       o If the -init option is present, the specified file is processed.

       o All other command line options are processed.

sqlite3  is  a terminal-based front-end to the SQLite library that can evaluate queries interactively and
       display the results in multiple formats.  sqlite3 can  also  be  used  within  shell  scripts  and  other
       applications to provide batch processing features.
