node-sqlite3 - Asynchronous, non-blocking SQLite3 bindings for node.js 0.2.* and 0.4.*.

Install with npm install sqlite3.

var sqlite3 = require('sqlite3').verbose();
var db = new sqlite3.Database(':memory:');

db.serialize(function() {
  db.run("CREATE TABLE lorem (info TEXT)");

  var stmt = db.prepare("INSERT INTO lorem VALUES (?)");
  for (var i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
      stmt.run("Ipsum " + i);
  }
  stmt.finalize();

  db.each("SELECT rowid AS id, info FROM lorem", function(err, row) {
      console.log(row.id + ": " + row.info);
  });
});

db.close();

• Straightforward query and parameter binding interface
• Full Buffer/Blob support
• Extensive debugging support
• Query serialization API
• Extension support
• Big test suite
• Written in modern C++ and tested for memory leaks

See the API documentation in the wiki.

Make sure you have the sources for sqlite3 installed. Mac OS X ships with these by default. If you don't have them installed, install the -dev package with your package manager, e.g. apt-get install libsqlite3-dev for Debian/Ubuntu.

To obtain and build the bindings:

git clone git://github.com/developmentseed/node-sqlite3.git
cd node-sqlite3
./configure
make

You can also use npm to download and install them:

npm install sqlite3

expresso is required to run unit tests.

npm install expresso
make test
