= SQLite3/Ruby Interface
* http://github.com/luislavena/sqlite3-ruby

== DESCRIPTION
This module allows Ruby programs to interface with the SQLite3
database engine (http://www.sqlite.org). You must have the
SQLite engine installed in order to build this module.
Note that this module is only compatible with SQLite 3.6.16 or newer.
== SYNOPSIS
require "sqlite3"
# Open a database
db = SQLite3::Database.new "test.db"
# Create a database
rows = db.execute <<-SQL
create table numbers (
name varchar(30),
val int
);
SQL
# Execute a few inserts
{
"one" => 1,
"two" => 2,
}.each do |pair|
db.execute "insert into numbers values ( ?, ? )", pair
end
# Find a few rows
db.execute( "select * from numbers" ) do |row|
p row
end
== Compilation and Installation
Install SQLite3, enabling the option SQLITE_ENABLE_COLUMN_METADATA (see
www.sqlite.org/compile.html for details).
Then do the following:
ruby setup.rb config
ruby setup.rb setup
ruby setup.rb install
Alternatively, you can download and install the RubyGem package for
SQLite3/Ruby (you must have RubyGems and SQLite3 installed, first):
gem install sqlite3
If you have sqlite3 installed in a non-standard location, you can specify the location of the include and lib files by doing:
gem install sqlite3 -- --with-sqlite3-include=/opt/local/include \
--with-sqlite3-lib=/opt/local/lib
