[sqlite] Possible automatic ON CONFLICT resolution via DEFAULTS

I'm making up a small database (for yet another tool I never plan on releasing) and during the table creation, I had a thought about the "Not Null" and "On Conflict" resolution mechanism. When adding a NULL value to a table that has the NOT NULL flag set on that field, instead of raising an

Lets not throw honey at the problem when a bear is around. Some of the things I've seen in this thread just makes it sound like the kitchen sink should be included in this application. I don't like the idea of letting the software decide what should be done based on a configuration file. Linux

Re: [sqlite] How to minimize fsync'ed writes to flash for storing periodically measured data?

Three thoughts; *First*, buy a bulk amount of cheap, inexpensive USB keys and start throwing your data at the key instead of your OS's card. I'm not 100% clear on how a USB key handles itself as far as writing to certain parts of its memory, but you could partition off chunks of space and just

Re: [sqlite] How to minimize fsync'ed writes to flash for storing periodically measured data?

There are a few reasons for the two-database method would be useful versus a single database connection, depending on the volume of data in the pot. 1> Having a single hourly database will keep the database size minimal. ~8000 entries holding just temperature data, it'll be small so I can't see a

Re: [sqlite] How to minimize fsync'ed writes to flash for storing periodically measured data?

If you write your information to the cheap* USB key instead of the SD card, from a mile-high view, you're looking at a bad data disk instead of a bad OS disk. You could backup daily your USB version of the database to the SD card, or to a network drive (If available) so then you're only writing

Information on how to open SQLite files: http://www.sqlite.org/c3ref/open.html How the locking mechanisms work: http://sqlite.org/lockingv3.html Specifically, it'll depend on the language or wrapper you're using to access the database. In my case (Delphi) there is an option in the open function

Re: [sqlite] SQLite destroys civilization.

Its gotta be great to see your code end up in a TV show and have an actor say "There's you're problem" and you get to say "Not in my code!". That would have been epic to be sitting there for that particular event as a bystander. heh On Sun, Mar 2, 2014 at 6:39 PM, Darren Duncan

Re: [sqlite] Suggestion to add "locate" as a broader version of "instr"

Apologies for the interruption and sort of off topic, but, is .timer part of the CLI only or is it part of the SQL language? Can I get the result of a timer from a call, or do I have to put a wrapper on my wrapper? On Sun, Mar 9, 2014 at 8:17 PM, Keith Medcalf wrote: > >

Re: [sqlite] Windows user app to display input form + reporting?

SQLite Expert has a free version that can be used. Certain UI features are missing, but, it does allow for excel like table editing. Its also MUCH cheaper than anything Microsoft has put out, even with their "dealer discounts" and "oem" sales with proper hardware purchases. On Tue, Mar 11,

Re: [sqlite] Remote access to SQLite in Linux from Windows.

Short of writing a server type application that listens for incoming communication, I'm not aware of anything of the sort. SQLite is an embedded library which compiles with your code, or, with references to external libraries installed on your local machine. SQLite doesn't behave well with ANY
