well that was fast!

what i did was download the sqlite3-pcre from ubuntu here:
http://mirror.corbina.net/pub/Linux/ubuntu/pool/universe/s/sqlite3-pcre/
(i needed the amd64)

then since it was a deb file:
dpkg -i sqlite3-pcre_0~git20070120091816+4229ecc-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb

in sqlite you simply:
.load /usr/lib/sqlite3/pcre.so

and it all works!

[sqlite] sqlite and regexp on debian squeeze

2012-03-19 Thread prad
REGEXP requires definition of regexp()
we seem to require C to do this:
http://www.sqlite.org/lang_expr.html#regexp

or

apparently there is a sqlite3-pcre which adds 
/usr/lib/sqlite3/pcre.so
and  that does the trick.

however, sqlite3-pcre doesn't seem to exist on debian.

what is the recommended way of getting regexp to work?

thanks to the personal assistance provided by roger my problems are
solved!

i was using ver 3.6 and he suggested upgrading to the most recent
version not only took away the woes, but produced nicely colored
printouts!

the info on what to do is in the doc folder of the zipped download or
right here:
http://apidoc.apsw.googlecode.com/hg/index.html

see building:
http://apidoc.apsw.googlecode.com/hg/build.html
i used python setup.py install --user

there were a lot of horrible syntax errors, but my son pointed out that
i didn't have the python-dev package and so was missing some essential
files!

many thx again roger!

well hello roger!
i recall reading that there is no issue with python3, but i'm on
python2.6 (debian squeeze) so that might be why i'm having difficulties.

i'll try your workaround as per post later:
>>> shell=apsw.Shell(stdout=codecs.open("/dev/stdout", "w", "utf8"),
stderr=codecs.open("/dev/stderr", "w", "utf8"))
>>> shell.cmdloop()

and if it still doesn't work, then i'll send you an email.
many thx!

[sqlite] correct extension to use for sqlite3

i've seen .db and .sqlite and both work.
however, is there a rational for one or the other (eg firefox sqlite

does the sqlite3 interface have completion of sql key words?
in postgresql you can type SEL and press tab to complete.
is there such a thing for sqlite3?

yes that was one of my silly oversights :D
there were several others, but they essentially boiled down to trying
to follow the tutorial and not realizing that i needed pdo statements,
so eventually i went to the pdo manual:
http://ca3.php.net/pdo
and figured it out from there.

thanks for your help, swithun!

ok thanks!

i couldn't do php -i (bash: php: command not found), may be i have to install 
the cli php?

however,

dpkg -l | grep -i sqlite 
gives

ii  libsqlite0  2.8.17-4
ii  libsqlite3-0 3.5.9-6
ii  php5-sqlite5.2.6.dfsg.1-1+lenny2
ii  sqlite3 3.5.9-6

which would suggest that we have a version problem.

so instead of 
$base = new SQLiteDatabase($dbname, 0666, $err)

i use
$base = new PDO("sqlite:$dbname", 0666, $err)

the db file gets written, but if i try to create a table i get
Fatal error: Call to a member function query() on a non-object
for the line with 
$db->query()

the permissions are set for www-data ownership so it's not like the thing can't 
be written to which is one of the problems that came up for this error on the 
net.

it's like the db hasn't been created properly, perhaps?

[sqlite] accessing php produced db from shell

2009-03-18 Thread prad
i'm working through one of the php-sqlite tutorials:
http://www.scriptol.com/sql/sqlite-table.php
it works fine, but when i try going in with sqlite3 from the shell and
try to do anything, i get
SQL error: file is encrypted or is not a database

i'm using sqlite3, but with php5 i had to install php5-sqlite. is the
sqlite i'm using with php5 on debian version 2? could this be the
problem? or is it something else?
