If runtime disablement of one or more whole triggers is desired, their execution can be gated by adding a conditioned WHEN clause (or logical conjuction with existing WHEN clause) to the offending trigger declaration.
https://sqlite.org/syntax/create-trigger-stmt.html For example: CREATE TRIGGER this_one ...etc... WHEN NOT exists(SELECT name FROM disabled_triggers WHERE name='this_one') BEGIN ...trigger body... END; This example presumes a table called disabled_triggers which one manages at runtime to name the trigger(s) to be temporarily disabled.
