sqlite-viewer VS SQLite

Now open the http://127.0.0.1:8000/, you will see the following output: You can also use sqlite3 command line tool or SQL Viewer tool in order to inspect changes in your database.

Just for fun, I threw the db.sqlite3 database on testing site, https://inloop.github.io/sqlite-viewer/, to see if the data is still valid and it is, I just need to redirect django to point to the local sqlite3 database.

Now have a look in that database ( https://inloop.github.io/sqlite-viewer/ ) and compare it to your external drive file paths. Maybe the drive has a different name…?

So, try using a tool that can read SQLite databases, like https://inloop.github.io/sqlite-viewer/ or https://sqlitebrowser.org/

sqlite-viewer - View SQLite file online

The History file is an SQLite database. You can see its contents on this webpage: http://inloop.github.io/sqlite-viewer/

SQLite Viewer - Online .db, .sqlite3, etc. File Viewer. Open Source. Website.

I was able to open them with this tool: https://github.com/inloop/sqlite-viewer

If you are into alternative storage engines for SQLite, there is also an LSM (Log-Structured Merge-tree) extension in the main repository that is not announced nor documented but seems to work. It’s based on the SQLite 4 project.

The sqlite code base is really well done. Lots of documentation.

Especially the VM part: https://github.com/spandanb/learndb-py/blob/master/learndb/v...

Compare it with this: https://github.com/sqlite/sqlite/blob/master/src/vdbe.c

That's said, I'm curious how complete this LearnDB is. SQLite is hard to read not only it's old but also it covers a lot of SQL and following SQL spec makes hings complicated. SQLite has great test suite so it's nice if you run the suit against this implementation.

Correct, see the github mirror[1]. I don't know how well supported that feature is compared to main branch. If it was completely stable, then it would have already landed in the main stable branch. Clarity about the roadmap of that branch would be nice.

Including comprehensive comments, documentation and tests in a codebase takes time and effort.

Failing to do so creates code that is very difficult to maintain or for someone new to the codebase to understand.

However, time and effort may not be what the organization wants to pay for, and individuals may view their own incomprehensible code as something like job security, as they can't be replaced by someone else easily.

As an example of complicated code that's still well-documented, the open-source sqlite code is a good example, about 1/4 of the B-tree file is comments, every time a variable is defined there's a short note explaining what it's used for, every function has a comment header that's comprehensive, such that someone new to the codebase could construct a map of how it all works fairly quickly. It's a good model for how to avoid the problem:
