    This seems like a fairly shallow course: if you’re interested in some real awesome database hacking, I highly recommend bustub. It’s great and educational.

    Not a tutorial but I completed all the assignments for CMU Database System course (link) and watched all their youtube videos before I started it (I highly recommend it, it's a great course and it's possible to submit the solutions even if you're not a CMU student. The entry code to gradescope is in the FAQ). Though, what I do is not re-writing bustub in Rust, as bustub uses 2 phase locking to achieve transaction isolation, and this uses MVCC, pretty much like Postgres (though currently much simpler). I used this resource as a starting point how it works.

    We have a spread of different GitHub Actions based workflows that do stuff whenever a PR is proposed or merged:

    https://github.com/sqlitebrowser/sqlitebrowser/tree/master/....

    Most of those are oriented around building packages for various OS's (Linux, macOS, Windows) so people can try the latest code.

    While there are some tests, they're more like extremely basic sanity tests and don't rely on Docker.

    Those tests rely on whichever version of SQLite was downloaded and compiled into the GUI (as per above code snippet).

    ---

    That being said, that's for the client side GUI application. There's a server side of things too (https://github.com/sqlitebrowser/dbhub.io -> dbhub.io) that does use docker for it's automated tests:

    https://github.com/sqlitebrowser/dbhub.io/tree/master/.githu...

    Those are integration tests though (eg "make sure we didn't bust communication with our cli", "make sure our go library still works 100% with the server"), and a reasonably decent set of End to End (E2E) tests of the web interface using Cypress.

    Does that help? :)

    Someone gave you a sqlite database. You probably started to think to install a program like sqlitebrowser, but only to view and read the data. Don't bother, you can use this extension instead.

  • DB SQLite (MBA M1) Crashes When Running a Query
    1 project | /r/SQL | 24 Jul 2023
    Hello y'all. This is my first post here. I'm learning SQL with the Northwind database. When I run a "big" query, like "SELECT * FROM Customers" the application crashes. I noticed this only happens when I run a general query, for example, if I run something more specific (and, by the hand "smaller") it doesn't happen. So, I thought it could be related to the size of the query. But I'm a total beginner so idk. It doesn't happen every time I try to use it, but still, this is frustrating. If there's no solution, what other SQL application can I use to keep learning? I found something on GitHub but this is for an older macOS version.
