stephencelis/sqlite.swift
A type-safe, [Swift][]-language layer over [SQLite3][].
Features
- A pure-Swift interface
- A type-safe, optional-aware SQL expression builder - A flexible, chainable, lazy-executing query layer - Automatically-typed data access - A lightweight, uncomplicated query and parameter binding interface - Developer-friendly error handling and debugging - [Full-text search] support - [Well-documented][See Documentation] - Extensively tested - [SQLCipher] support via Swift Package Manager - [Schema query/migration] - Works on Linux (with some limitations) - Active support at StackOverflow, and Gitter Chat Room (experimental)

Usage
import SQLite
// Wrap everything in a do...catch to handle errors
do {
let db = try Connection("path/to/db.sqlite3")
let users = Table("users")
let id = SQLite.Expression<Int64>("id")
let name = SQLite.Expression<String?>("name")
let email = SQLite.Expression<String>("email")
try db.run(users.create { t in
t.column(id, primaryKey: true)
t.column(name)
t.column(email, unique: true)
})
// CREATE TABLE "users" (
// "id" INTEGER PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL,
// "name" TEXT,
// "email" TEXT NOT NULL UNIQUE
// )
let insert = users.insert(name <- "Alice", email <- "alice@mac.com")
let rowid = try db.run(insert)
// INSERT INTO "users" ("name", "email") VALUES ('Alice', 'alice@mac.com')
for user in try db.prepare(users) {
print("id: \(user[id]), name: \(user[name]), email: \(user[email])")
// id: 1, name: Optional("Alice"), email: alice@mac.com
}
// SELECT * FROM "users"
let alice = users.filter(id == rowid)
try db.run(alice.update(email <- email.replace("mac.com", with: "me.com")))
// UPDATE "users" SET "email" = replace("email", 'mac.com', 'me.com')
// WHERE ("id" = 1)
try db.run(alice.delete())
// DELETE FROM "users" WHERE ("id" = 1)
try db.scalar(users.count) // 0
// SELECT count(*) FROM "users"
} catch {
print (error)
}Note that Expression should be written as SQLite.Expression to avoid conflicts with the SwiftUI.Expression if you are using SwiftUI too.
SQLite.swift also works as a lightweight, Swift-friendly wrapper over the C API.
// Wrap everything in a do...catch to handle errors
do {
// ...
let stmt = try db.prepare("INSERT INTO users (email) VALUES (?)")
for email in ["betty@icloud.com", "cathy@icloud.com"] {
try stmt.run(email)
}
db.totalChanges // 3
db.changes // 1
db.lastInsertRowid // 3
for row in try db.prepare("SELECT id, email FROM users") {
print("id: \(row[0]), email: \(row[1])")
// id: Optional(2), email: Optional("betty@icloud.com")
// id: Optional(3), email: Optional("cathy@icloud.com")
}
try db.scalar("SELECT count(*) FROM users") // 2
} catch {
print (error)

Installation
Swift Package Manager
The [Swift Package Manager] is a tool for managing the distribution of Swift code.
- Add the following to your
Package.swiftfile:
``swift dependencies: [ .package(url: "https://github.com/stephencelis/SQLite.swift.git", from: "0.16.0") ] ``
- Build your project:
``sh $ swift build ``
See the Tests/SPM folder for a small demo project which uses SPM.

Manual
To install SQLite.swift as an Xcode sub-project:
1. Drag the SQLite.xcodeproj file into your own project. ([Submodule], clone, or [download] the project first.)
[Installation Screen Shot]
2. In your target’s General tab, click the + button under Linked Frameworks and Libraries.
3. Select the appropriate SQLite.framework for your platform.
4. Add.
Some additional steps are required to install the application on an actual device:
5. In the General tab, click the + button under Embedded Binaries.
6. Select the appropriate SQLite.framework for your platform.
7. Add.
