Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

- Absurd-SQL: sqlite3 in ur indexeddb (hopefully a better back end soon)
- What If OpenDocument Used SQLite?
-
WASM SQL database recommendations wanted
Not really, but I'm aware of absurd-sql. Note that this requires IndexedDB and thus a browser environment.
-
Best local database that works on all platforms including web?
I don't need SQL capabilities, so I didn't look into those options (there's also absurd-sql, which ports sqlite to the browser on top of IndexedDB).

SQLite WASM in the Browser Backed by the Origin Private File System
Ironically I was just about to drop in absurd-sql [1] to a project, which uses indexeddb to back SQLite. This seems better.

Irmin in the Browser (OCaml/MirageOS)
There is also absurd-sql that is sqlite3 in wasm using IndexDB as storage and itโs faster than IndexDB itself

Postgres WASM by Snaplet and Supabase
Offline data: running it in the browser for an offline cache, similar to sql.js or absurd-sql.

Learn PWA
We are very close to having WASM SQLite with persistence in the web platform. Until now SQLite compiled to WASM was in memory and you had to write the whole database out as a binary array to save changes. There is absurd-sql (https://github.com/jlongster/absurd-sql), which builds a virtual file system on top of IndexedDB for sqlite, its incredible, but a bit of an ugly hack.
However, the new file-access apis (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/File_System...) that are landing in browsers will fix this. One of the things it does is enable very efficient block level read/write access to a privet sandboxed filesystem for the websites origin, perfect for persistent sqlite. There is more here: https://web.dev/file-system-access/#accessing-files-optimize...

Ask HN: High quality Python scripts or small libraries to learn from
https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils
So, his code might not be a good place to find best patterns (for ex, I don't think they are fully typed), but his repos are very pragmatic, and his development process is super insightful (well documented PRs for personal repos!). Best part, he blogs about every non-trivial update, so you get all the context!

Why you should probably be using SQLite
Sounds like your problem is with SQLAlchemy, not with SQLite.
My https://sqlite-utils.datasette.io library might be a better fit for you. It's a much thinner abstraction than SQLAlchemy.

Welcome to Datasette Cloud
There are a few things you can do here.
SQLite is great at JSON - so I often dump JSON structures in a TEXT column and query them using https://www.sqlite.org/json1.html
I also have plugins for running jq() functions directly in SQL queries - https://datasette.io/plugins/datasette-jq and https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils-jq
I've been trying to drive the cost of turning semi-structured data into structured SQL queries down as much as possible with https://sqlite-utils.datasette.io - see this tutorial for more: https://datasette.io/tutorials/clean-data
This is also an area that I'm starting to explore with LLMs. I love the idea that you could take a bunch of messy data, tell Datasette Cloud "I want this imported into a table with this schema"... and it does that.
I have a prototype of this working now, I hope to turn it into an open source plugin (and Datasette Cloud feature) pretty soon. It's using this trick: https://til.simonwillison.net/gpt3/openai-python-functions-d...

SQLite Functions for Working with JSON
I've baked a ton of different SQLite tricks - including things like full-text indexing support and advanced alter table methods - into my sqlite-utils CLI tool and Python library: https://sqlite-utils.datasette.io
My Datasette project provides tools for exploring, analyzing and publishing SQLite databases, plus ways to expose them via a JSON API: https://datasette.io
I've also written a ton of stuff about SQLite on my two blogs:
- https://simonwillison.net/tags/sqlite/
- https://til.simonwillison.net/sqlite

Show HN: Trogon โ An automatic TUI for command line apps
This is really fun. I have an experimental branch of my sqlite-utils CLI tool (which has dozens of sub-commands) running with this now and it really did only take 4 lines of code - I'm treating Trogon as an optional dependency because people using my package as a Python library rather than a CLI tool may not want the extra installed components:
https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/commit/ec12b780d5dcd6...
There's an animated GIF demo of the result here: https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/545#issuecomme...

I'm sure I'm being stupid.. Copying data from an API and making a database
My project https://datasette.io/ is ideal for this kind of thing. You can use https://sqlite-utils.datasette.io/ to load JSON data into a SQLite database, then publish it with Datasette.

Just: A Command Runner
I've been using this for about six months now and I absolutely love it.
Make never stuck for me - I couldn't quite get it to fit inside my head.
Just has the exact set of features I want.
Here's one example of one of my Justfiles: https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/blob/fc221f9b62ed8624... - documented here: https://sqlite-utils.datasette.io/en/stable/contributing.htm...
I also wrote about using Just with Django in this TIL: https://til.simonwillison.net/django/just-with-django

Ask HN: What Do You Use for a Personal Database
SQLite with the open source toolchain I've been building over the past five years:
https://datasette.io as the interface for running queries against (and visualizing) my data.
https://sqlite-utils.datasette.io/ as a set of tools for creating and modifying my databases (inserting JSON or CSV data, enabling full text search text)
https://dogsheep.github.io as a suite of tools for importing my personal data - see also this talk I gave about that project: https://simonwillison.net/2020/Nov/14/personal-data-warehous...

The Perfect Commit
Here's an example: https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/pull/468
> After identifying about 7 commits (with pretty basic/useless messages, and no PR link!), I then had to find the corresponding PRs based on timestamps, and search the PR history for PRs merged around those timestamps.
Not sure if this would save any time, but it is possible to search PRs by commit. For example, say git blame led me to this commit: https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/commit/129141572f249e...
I could have found PR #373 via this search: https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/pulls?q=bb16f52681b6d...
> I thus treat PRs as ephemeral
I think I see what you're saying but as others have pointed out, sometimes you want to add screenshots etc to the context, and you can't capture this kind of info in commit messages. So then you have two choices: issues or PRs.
> Then any review comments are preferably not addressed directly in the PR
I would think that sometimes you really do want to have a back and forth conversation in the PR, rather than just a "make this change" -> "ok done" type of feedback loop.
I view the PR as an decent place for all of this because it's basically a commit of commits, capturing the related changes/conversation/context all in a single place at the point of merge.
