How to use sqlite database with xampp using php

How to install sqlite or sqlite 3 database with xampp server and how to use 开发者_Go百科sqlite or sqlite 3 database using php scripts or programs...

To activate SQLite3 in Xampp (v3.2.2). Open xampp/php/php.ini, un-comment the line ;extension=sqlite3 (retrieve the ;), save the php.ini and restart your Xampp server.

Creating the sqlite Database

You have two possibilities to achieve that:

1. Writing your DDL-statements (CREATE TABLE...) in a .sql file and execute it using the sqlite command line (assuming your CREATE TABLE statements are in a file called tabledef.sql):

   cat tabledef.sql | sqlite3 yourdbname.db
   

2. Use PHP to execute the DDL-statements on a connected database (see "Executing statements").

Connecting to a sqlite Database

You should definitely use PDO to do that:

$dbh = new PDO('sqlite:/path/to/your/database.db', '', '', array(
    PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE => PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION,
));

If the database does not exist, then it is created. But you need write-access to the directory that contains the database. If you permit write-access only to the database file, sqlite fails because it also needs to create a lock file in the same directory.

Executing statements

Now that you have a connection you can do your stuff with the database, for example execute some DDL-statements:

$dbh->exec("CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS mytable (
    mypk INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT,
    myvalue TEXT);");

Or if you need to dynamically generate SQL statements, use prepared statements:

$statement = $dbh->prepare("INSERT INTO mytable (myvalue) VALUES(?)");

$statement->execute(array("hello"));
$statement->execute(array("world"));

This is only a small overview, for further information you should check out the PDO manual and the sqlite Documentation.

Well to see if it's installed, check phpinfo() and see if the drivers for sqlite are installed (search the list for "sqlite"), it will mention sqlite and and sqlite 3 seperately. I think they both come preinstalled with XAMPP so it should just work. Then check the PHP manual for sqlite functions, or use the PDO wrappers. Google is your friend.

You can use a database wrapper, that can make things much easier.

try this one, i made it :

<?php
Class Sqlite3_Wrapper
{

    private $sFileName, $oCon=null, $iDebug, $oResult;
    private $sDefaultFile = 'default.db';

    public function __construct($sFileName, $iDebug=false)
    {
         $this->setFileName($sFileName);
    }

    private function showMessage($sMsg)
    {
         if($this->iDebug != false)
         {
              $sMessage = (php_sapi_name() == 'cli')?$sMsg."\n":$sMsg.'<br />' ;
              echo $sMessage;
         }
    }

    public function setFileName($sFileName)
    {
         if(is_string($sFileName) && strlen($sFileName)>0)
         {
              $this->sFileName = $sFileName;
         }
         else
         {
              $this->sFileName = $this->sDefaultFile;
         }
    }

    public function openDB($sFileName=false)
    {
         if($sFileName!==false)
         {
              $this->setFileName($sFileName);
         }
         try
         {
              $this->oCon = new SQLite3($this->sFileName);
         }catch(Exception $oEx)
         {
              $this->showMessage($ex->getMessage());
         }

    }

    public function closeDB()
    {
         if($this->oCon!=null)
         {
              $this->oCon->close();
              $this->oCon = null;
         }
    }

    public function executeCUDQuery($sQuery)
    {
         if($this->oCon==null)
         {
              $this->showMessage('Not connected to database');
         }
         else
         {
              try
              {
                   $this->oCon->exec($sQuery);
              }catch(Exception $ex)
              {
                   $this->showMessage($ex->getMessage());
              }
         }
    }

    public function executeQuery($sQuery)
    {
         $this->oResult = null;
         if($this->oCon==null)
         {
              $this->showMessage('Not connected to database');
         }
         else{
              try
              {
                   $this->oResult = $this->oCon->query($sQuery);
              }catch(Exception $oEx)
              {
                   $this->showMessage($oEx->getMessage());
              }
         }
         return $this->oResult;
     }

     public function fetch($iMode=SQLITE3_NUM)
