Hello,

I'm using 1.4.0 of better-sqlite3, with Electron 1.4.15 and node 6.5.0, on Windows 64bit. I've installed it using npm install --save better-sqlite3. When this line executes: var Database = require('better-sqlite3'); I get an exception that dll init failed, see below for stack trace. The better_sqlite3.node is in the location that require.resolve is looking for it.

Is there anything else I need to do to make this work? node-gyp rebuild specifying --arch=x64 --target_platform=win32 ?
Thanks
Greg.

Hey! I know these issues are bordering on the obscure, but I'm still fighting with the Windows builds of N1. We target ia32 instead of x64 on Windows because it's more widely supported, and it looks like there are some casting warnings at compile time that result in the module not working when the app runs. I believe this issue is only reproducible if you're targeting a 32-bit architecture.

Here are a few of the warnings:

c:\users\ieuser\documents\n1\node_modules\bettersqlite3\src\objects\int64\../../util/macros.h(33): warning C4146: unary minus operator applied to unsigned type, result still unsigned (..\src\objects\int64\int64.cc) [C:\Users\IEUser\Documents\N1\node_modules\better-sqlite3\build\better_sqlite3.vcxproj]

When you run the app, it complains about the 32-bit integers:

932:1011/192644:INFO:CONSOLE(28)] "TypeError: Expected both arguments to be 32 bit signed integers.
    at TypeError (native)
    at Object.<anonymous> (C:\Users\IEUser\Documents\N1\node_modules\better-sqlite3\index.js:8:34)

If you have a Windows machine, you can reproduce this by running this to build. I'm not 100% sure the warnings are causing the issue, but they seem like a very likely culprit. I wonder if there just need to be different types used here: https://github.com/bengotow/better-sqlite3/blame/n1-1.3.6/src/util/macros.h#L32

npm install --msvs_version=2013 --target=1.4.1 --arch=ia32 --target_platform=win32 --dist-url=https://atom.io/download/atom-shell

Possibly of limited interest as this is not the latest version of OS X, and you're unlikely to have the hardware to reproduce it, but I thought I'd report it.

I installed better-sqlite3 without any issue.

But on : var Database = require('better-sqlite3') I have this error

I have another project with node-sqlite that works well.

Thanks.

It would be nice to be able to subscribe to events using the sqlite3_update_hook function.

How about adding a setUpdateHook() method to the Database instance ?

I know that this function only fires for updates within the same database connection, but it would still be of use to me (probably).

I am trying to utilize anonymous parameters in a prepared query, and I can not for the love of God figure out where I am going wrong. This code:

"use strict";

const Database = require('better-sqlite3');

var db;

var openConnection = function() {
	db = new Database("G:\\UserDir\\Desktop\\TestDB\\Test.db");
};

var getData = function(query, params) {
	var statement = db.prepare('SELECT * FROM ? WHERE ID = ?');
	return statement.get("Title", 1);
};

var runQuery = function(query, params) {
	return db.prepare(query).run(params);
}

module.exports = {
	open: openConnection,
	get: getData,
	run: runQuery
};

produces, at run time, this error message:

Error: Failed to construct SQL statement (near "?": syntax error).
    at Error (native)

Inserting the values into the query directly works properly, and connection to the database is being successfully made. I will, however, not concatenate together queries that may or not contain potential user input, and as such would like to utilize this feature. Can someone tell me where I am going wrong, or look into fixing this if it's not on my end? Will gladly provide any additional information that may be required.

I have a piece of code like this:

}).then(function(fileList) {
    return Sync.updateSyncedPaidDataset(datasetId);
}).then(function() {
    return MediaStorage.movePicturesToAws(datasetId);
});

Where both updateSyncedPaidDataset and movePicturesToAws are enclosed in transactions (each in its own), but I need the two calls to be a single atomic operation. Nested transactions are supported in sqlite throught SAVEPOINT-RELEASE but it seems that there isn't a way to use SAVEPOINT in better-sqlite3.

Trying to install in windows. I am getting the following error:

When I npm install <some other package>, this module will run through the whole compilation phase again, slowing build times and making network calls to nodejs.org (for nodejs headers). I originally thought it was an npm issue but it still happens, regardless if I use npm install or npm update.

Before that, I was getting a different output that told me to install Python and MS Visual Studio 2005, which I did, but I still can't install your software.

I don't know if this is of any relevance but I want to use better-sqlite3 version 2.3.3 with Electron 1.6.8, which uses Node version 7.4.0 (not the latest version). This is the same Node version that I'm using to install better-sqlite3.

Anyway, I attached the corresponding log file.

npm-debug.txt

can we encrypt database using a password?

Is it possible to wait until the query is finished? I have something like:

function query(fields, table) {
  db.on('open', () => {
    return db.prepare(`SELECT ${fields} FROM ${table}`).all()
  })
}

let rows = query('*', 'user')
console.log(rows) // is returning undefined. I need this to wait until all() is finished.

thanks!

Please add support for defining custom SQL functions, like this example with the Perl SQLite driver.

I wonder if it would be a good idea to convert JSON1 fields to JS values when they are read, that would avoid allocating an intermediate JS string.

Since there is no way short of reading the schema to know that a column is JSON1, this would be something passed as an option to the query…

UPDATE

Transactions have been reworked in version 5.0.0, and they are now well-documented here.

ORIGINAL POST

In response to #48 (comment)

You can use db.transaction() like this:

var transaction = db.transaction([
  'INSERT INTO movies (title, rating) VALUES (@title, @rating)',
  'INSERT INTO cast_members (name, movie) VALUES (@actorName, @title)'
]);
transaction.run({ title: 'Taxi Driver', rating: 100, actorName: 'Robert De Niro' });

If you need to run javascript code in your transaction, you must manage the transaction manually. This is easier if you create a nice utility like this:

var begin = db.prepare('BEGIN');
var commit = db.prepare('COMMIT');
var rollback = db.prepare('ROLLBACK');

// Higher order function - returns a function that always runs in a transaction
function asTransaction(func) {
  return function (...args) {
    begin.run();
    try {
      func(...args);
      commit.run();
    } finally {
      if (db.inTransaction) rollback.run();
    }
  };
}

Then you can run arbitrary transactions like this:

var insertMovie = db.prepare('INSERT INTO movies (title, rating) VALUES (@title, @rating)');
var insertActor = db.prepare('INSERT INTO cast_members (name, movie) VALUES (@actorName, @title)');

var insertMovieAndActor = asTransaction(function (data) {
  insertMovie.run(data);
  // run arbitrary javascript code
  insertActor.run(data);
});

insertMovieAndActor({ title: 'Taxi Driver', rating: 100, actorName: 'Robert De Niro' });

I can not get the prepare command to work when trying to insert a variable into the WHERE x LIKE '__' statement.

I have tried these so far:

db.prepare("select * from CARDS_VIEW where name like ? limit ?").all(name, limit)
db.prepare("select * from CARDS_VIEW where name like '?' limit ?").all(name, limit)
db.prepare("select * from CARDS_VIEW where name like ? limit ?").all('\''+name+'\'', limit)
db.prepare("select * from CARDS_VIEW where name like ? limit ?").all([name, limit])

For the first and last option, I get the error code SQLite: database schema has changed.. For the second option I get Too many parameters were provided..

For now, I've gotten around it by concatenating the name variable into the statement, but that does not sanitize the input. Is there any way I can insert a variable into the LIKE operator?

Looking through the code I learned saw that you do not allow URI names outside of internal use. I was wondering if there will be support for shared cache on a local file that is not in memory or for sqlite flags (https://www.sqlite.org/c3ref/open.html). I noticed in you use this:

status = sqlite3_open(filename, &db_handle);

to create you db. Will there be support in the future for flags by using the following to create your db?

status = sqlite3_open(filename, &db_handle, flags, zVfs);

As of v3.3.0 of better-sqlite3, SQLite3 extensions are now supported.

You can load them easily with the Database#loadExtension() function. However, part of me is not satisfied.

Personally I don't use extensions, but I imagine it would be a pain in the butt to manually recompile all of your extensions every time better-sqlite3 updates to a new version of SQLite3. I have an idea for one possible solution: it could automatically compile extensions whenever better-sqlite3 is installed, for example, by searching for extensions in a special directory, like /sqlite3_extensions, which would sit next to your /node_modules directory. Obviously this would have limitations because you'd no longer have control over the actual compilation of your extensions.

I would like feedback from people who actually use extensions to better guide me towards making their experience the best possible (or, maybe it's fine as it is?). Any suggestions, comments, or concerns are welcome.

I don't really know how this could be done, but using either all() or each() force the developer to basically iterate over the whole result set.

This could be a problem when dealing with very large amount of data.

It would be pretty nice if the statement implemented an iterator() method that returns an iterator that steps until it is done.

This would allow us to do things like

for (var row of stmt.iterator()) {
  // do stuff with the current row, why not even use
  // await inside an async function !
}

I am willing to try and implement it, but so far my (fuzzy) memories of C++ mean that this would probably be some time before seeing something even remotely useful.

Would it be possible to extend Database.register with the following:

1. pass extra parameter with user data
2. attach Database and UserData to this when firing function callback?

Thanks!

Or does your plugin depend on them? For example out of -

SQLITE_ENABLE_FTS5
SQLITE_ENABLE_JSON1
SQLITE_ENABLE_RTREE
SQLITE_DEFAULT_CACHE_SIZE=-16000
SQLITE_DEFAULT_FOREIGN_KEYS=1
SQLITE_USE_URI=1
SQLITE_MAX_SCHEMA_RETRY=0

I really don't want - SQLITE_ENABLE_FTS5 & SQLITE_ENABLE_JSON1 so can I safely remove them? If yes, what would be the procedure of doing so? Or how about if I want to add some new compile time flags?

Hi,
I wanted to try this module out, but I can't get it to install on my linux box. Problem seems buried in a compile step I can't see.

Hello,

this error is pretty unexpected, since most of the drivers handle this and you sometimes just need to execute multiple statements coming from external file.

In some cases, it is important to open a database only when a database file already exists and fail otherwise. But better-sqlite3 does not support it, even when database file does not exist, sqlite3 creates it (if the readonly option is not specified, of course). It will be great if you add a possibility to set these flags as options for database constructor alongside readonly flag.

Joshua, thanks for this great package.

Is there a design reason .open and .close are asynchronous? It seems these would fall under the same reasoning you made everything else synchronous, as you explain in the intro - or am I missing something?
cheers,

Hi,

I noticed that the errors thrown from the module are not consistent with what one would expect being used with node-sqlite3, or in my case the Promise based version node-sqlite.

Here is an example that works in node-sqlite:

# insert a row that will trigger a `SQLITE_CONSTRAINT` error since it is duplicated data
db.run('INSERT [...]')
  .catch(e) {
    // we rely on the unique index for the id column so we don't have to check for existence beforehand
    // therefore just ignore if it's an SQLITE_CONSTRAINT
    if (e.code !== 'SQLITE_CONSTRAINT') {
      throw e;
    }
}

with better-sqlite3 I now have to do this (note how I have to do a string comparison because there is no error code in the error thrown by better-sqlite3:

try {
  db.prepare('INSERT [...]').run(params);
}
catch(e) {
   if (String(e).includes("SQLite: UNIQUE constraint failed") === -1) {
      throw e;
   }
}

Granted, my approach to handling duplicated IDs in the database is not necessarily the best. But there are cases where this approach is more efficient where we let the DB do its job (check existence of data for us).

Edit: I forgot to say thank you first of all for creating this module. It saved me quite a lot of white hairs :)

In my case, I am most often taking the output of a query and mapping each row object to a different object. I think that in that case it would be more efficient to return rows as arrays in column order…

What about add a migration feature support? For example, like in sqlite (based on sqlite3).

Opened up a issue on their repository but wanted to bring into your notice too - jestjs/jest#3931

How can I use with https://www.zetetic.net/sqlcipher/ for security?

As said in the title.

Virtual tables are a pretty powerful feature of sqlite, would be incredibly nice to be able to use them in JS too !

Hey,

I'm thinking about changing node-sqlite3 to better-sqlite3 but I use Sequelize and better-sqlite3 API is pretty different than node-sqlite3 API what makes it impossible.

Do you know any other ORM compatible with better-sqlite3?

I'm trying to port over some sqlite3 calls to better-sqlite3 and I could do with some basic examples of how to use .all and .get. I understand the prepared statement part but the syntax to make the call and process the return. This is an example from sqlite3:

this.db.all(SELECT name FROM sqlite_master WHERE type='table' AND name='${sqliteUtil.table(name)}';, function(err, rows) {
if(err) {
console.error(err);
return util.die('DB error at get');
}

next(null, rows.length === 1);

});

const database  = require('better-sqlite3');
const db = new database('example.db');

db.on('open', () => {
  db.prepare('CREATE TABLE result(d BLOB, t integer);').run()

  const st = db.prepare('INSERT INTO result (d, t) VALUES (?, ?)')

  st.run([null, 1])
  st.run([new Buffer(0), 2])

  console.log('* in result:\n\t', db.prepare('SELECT * FROM result').all())

  console.log('SELECT d = null:\n\t', db.prepare('SELECT * FROM result WHERE d = ?').all(null))
  console.log('SELECT d = new Buffer(0):\n\t', db.prepare('SELECT * from result where d = ?').all(new Buffer(0)))
  console.log('SELECT d is new Buffer(0):\n\t', db.prepare('SELECT * from result where d is ?').all(new Buffer(0)))
  console.log('SELECT d is null:\n\t', db.prepare('SELECT * from result where d is ?').all(null))
});

output:

* in result:
     [ { d: null, t: 1 }, { d: null, t: 2 } ]
SELECT d = null:
     []
SELECT d = new Buffer(0):
     []
SELECT d is new Buffer(0):
     [ { d: null, t: 1 }, { d: null, t: 2 } ]
SELECT d is null:
     [ { d: null, t: 1 }, { d: null, t: 2 } ]

So, the entire API is synchronous, right?

So if you have a query that takes a while to run, say 0.5s-2s or so, that means the entire node process is hanging until the database returns?

Is that not problematic for web servers?

Would it be possible to have an asynchronous mode for queries that are expected to take a long time?

Hi,

I am trying to compile source code of another project, but the only errors I get are related to better-sqlite3. I tried googling the issue but could not find any result that would resolve this problem. Could anyone help me?

Running:
Windows 10
Node: v4.6.0
npm: v3.3.10
Python: 2.7.12

Thanks (alot) in advance.

Hey! Was just checking out better-sqlite3. We currently use node-sqlite3 in https://github.com/nylas/N1 and are having a really obscure bug that we think is related to it's async implementation. Wanted to try switching to better-sqlite3, but I'm running into this issue building it against Electron 1.4.1. Any ideas?

Hi Bro,
This isnt an issue more of a question with regards to better-sqlite3

how many connections can be used for example we have a server which around 3000 clients talk to we were using mysql but the npm modules are shit you cannot query before inserting which causes alot of issues as for your sqlite we can and the speed is amazing.

the sever handles the clients with sockets.io so the question is will the module be able to handle multiple inserts from the server? and reads without opening and closing the dbs? (connections?)
