SQIni

The purpose of this package is to have a simple method of revising tables in a SQLite database. It is also possible to convert current tables as ini files.

There is a protection that prevents you from deleting data by removing something from the ini

The following options can currently be used, the others are not functional

  • sqini.Database()
  • read()
  • syncToDatabase()
  • syncToIni()
  • .db

Install the pip

pip install sqini

How to use

Import SQIni in your script

import sqini

define SQIni

import sqini

database = sqini.Database() # enter the configurations here (iniSync, canDelete)
database.read('database path') #here you have to specify the database and the path

Setup the sync from a ini file with your sqlite database

A SQLite databse must endig with .db.

The ini file must have the same name as the sqlite database, it is found automatically when reading, if none is available one is created. If no path to a database is given, a database is created once. However, it will not be read in automatically when the program is started again.

example script

import sqini
database = sqini.Database()
database.read('./mydata.db')
database.syncToDatabase()

There is a security that prevents files from being deleted should an entry be removed from the ini file. This can be switched off with canDelete = True when initializing-

Important! If the file is in the same directory put a . / In front, this is required, otherwise the path is missing. If another path is specified, it does not have to be specified

Sync your current database with a ini file

Safety first, for syncing a database with a ini you need allow it with iniSync=True, it should protect against unintentional editing

if you do not allow it, a warning message will appear and it will not be carried out

import sqini
database = sqini.Database(iniSync=True)
database.read('./mydata.db')
database.syncToIni()

Use the normal database

it is also possible to control the database via sqlite3 without having to define it again

As example with execute. The db variable is the normal sqlite3 connection.

import sqini
database = sqini.Database(iniSync=True)
database.read('./mydata.db')

database.db.execute() # as example

THE INI FILE

the ini file must have the same name as the database, only it must end with .ini. You do not have to specify this when reading in because it derives it

An ini file is structured as follows so that it works

Always only ONE space as spacing, otherwise errors will occur. In the default_value this does not matter if you use a string.

If you do something wrong, no data will be damaged, there will be an error beforehand.

[user]
id = INTEGER 0 0 0 0
name = TEXT 0 0 0 0 'unbekannt'
money = INTEGER 0 0 0 0 1000
inventory = TEXT 0 0 0 0 '{}'
description = TEXT 0 0 0 0

construction

  • [user] - that's the table name - you can enter what you want here
  • id, name - that's the column name - you can enter what you want here
  • Types - SQLite databases are of different types, all of which can be used
  • Numbers, Here are 4 numbers, these mean in sequence not_null, primary_key, autoincerment and unique. 0 is deactivated and 1 is activated.
  • The last is the default value that the column should have. If you don't want to specify anything, don't write anything. Otherwise, write your desired value as a string with 'your string' and a number like 598 or 2985.123.

SQLite Types

  • INTEGER - to save numbers
  • TEXT - to save text/strings
  • BLOB, REAL, NUMERIC
