- Defined in:
- lib/sqlite3/database.rb
Overview
The Database class encapsulates a single connection to a SQLite3 database. Its usage is very straightforward:
require "sqlite3"
db = SQLite3::Database.new("data.db")
db.execute("select * from table") do |row|
p row
end
db.close
It wraps the lower-level methods provides by the selected driver, and includes the Pragmas module for access to various pragma convenience methods.
The Database class provides type translation services as well, by which the SQLite3 data types (which are all represented as strings) may be converted into their corresponding types (as defined in the schemas for their tables). This translation only occurs when querying data from the database–insertions and updates are all still typeless.
Furthermore, the Database class has been designed to work well with the ArrayFields module from Ara Howard. If you require the ArrayFields module before performing a query, and if you have not enabled results as hashes, then the results will all be indexible by field name.

Methods included from Pragmas
Constructor Details
#initialize(file_name, options = {}) ⇒ Database
Create a new Database object that opens the given file. If utf16 is true
, the filename is interpreted as a UTF-16 encoded string.
By default, the new database will return result rows as arrays (#results_as_hash) and has type translation disabled (#type_translation=).

Instance Method Details
#busy_timeout(ms) ⇒ Object
Indicates that if a request for a resource terminates because that resource is busy, SQLite should sleep and retry for up to the indicated number of milliseconds. By default, SQLite does not retry busy resources. To restore the default behavior, send 0 as the ms
parameter.
See also the mutually exclusive #busy_handler.

#changes ⇒ Object
Returns the number of changes made to this database instance by the last operation performed. Note that a “delete from table” without a where clause will not affect this value.

#close ⇒ Object
Closes this database.

#commit ⇒ Object
Commits the current transaction. If there is no current transaction, this will cause an error to be raised. This returns true
, in order to allow it to be used in idioms like abort? and rollback or commit
.

#execute(sql, *bind_vars) ⇒ Object
Executes the given SQL statement. If additional parameters are given, they are treated as bind variables, and are bound to the placeholders in the query.
Note that if any of the values passed to this are hashes, then the key/value pairs are each bound separately, with the key being used as the name of the placeholder to bind the value to.
The block is optional. If given, it will be invoked for each row returned by the query. Otherwise, any results are accumulated into an array and returned wholesale.
See also #execute2, #query, and #execute_batch for additional ways of executing statements.

# File 'lib/sqlite3/database.rb', line 146 def execute(sql, *bind_vars) prepare(sql) do |stmt| result = stmt.execute(*bind_vars) if block_given? result.each { |row| yield row } else return result.inject([]) { |arr, row| arr << row; arr } end end end |
#execute2(sql, *bind_vars) ⇒ Object
Executes the given SQL statement, exactly as with #execute. However, the first row returned (either via the block, or in the returned array) is always the names of the columns. Subsequent rows correspond to the data from the result set.
Thus, even if the query itself returns no rows, this method will always return at least one row–the names of the columns.
See also #execute, #query, and #execute_batch for additional ways of executing statements.

#prepare(sql) ⇒ Object
Returns a Statement object representing the given SQL. This does not execute the statement; it merely prepares the statement for execution.
The Statement can then be executed using Statement#execute.

#rollback ⇒ Object
Rolls the current transaction back. If there is no current transaction, this will cause an error to be raised. This returns true
, in order to allow it to be used in idioms like abort? and rollback or commit
.

# File 'lib/sqlite3/database.rb', line 272 def rollback execute "rollback transaction" @transaction_active = false true end |
#transaction(mode = :deferred) ⇒ Object
Begins a new transaction. Note that nested transactions are not allowed by SQLite, so attempting to nest a transaction will result in a runtime exception.
The mode
parameter may be either :deferred
(the default), :immediate
, or :exclusive
.
If a block is given, the database instance is yielded to it, and the transaction is committed when the block terminates. If the block raises an exception, a rollback will be performed instead. Note that if a block is given, #commit and #rollback should never be called explicitly or you’ll get an error when the block terminates.
If a block is not given, it is the caller’s responsibility to end the transaction explicitly, either by calling #commit, or by calling #rollback.

if there is a transaction active, and false
otherwise.
