SQLite is a C-language library that implements a small, fast, self-contained,
high-reliability, full-featured, SQL database engine.

## About
[SQLite](https://sqlite.org/) is a software library that provides a relational
database management system. The lite in SQLite means lightweight in terms of
setup, database administration, and required resources.
SQLite has the following notable characteristics:
- Self-contained with no external dependencies
- Serverless - the SQLite library accesses its storage files directly
- Single database file that can be easily copied or moved
- Zero-configuration - no setup or administration needed
- Transactional with ACID properties
## Available Tools
- [`sqlite-sql`](../tools/sqlite/sqlite-sql.md)
Run SQL queries against a local SQLite database.
## Requirements
### Database File
You need a SQLite database file. This can be:
- An existing database file
- A path where a new database file should be created
- `:memory:` for an in-memory database
## Example
```yaml
sources:
my-sqlite-db:
kind: "sqlite"
database: "/path/to/database.db"
```
For an in-memory database:
```yaml
sources:
my-sqlite-memory-db:
kind: "sqlite"
database: ":memory:"
```
## Reference
### Configuration Fields
| **field** | **type** | **required** | **description** |
|-----------|:--------:|:------------:|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| database | string | true | Path to SQLite database file, or ":memory:" for an in-memory database. |
### Connection Properties
SQLite connections are configured with these defaults for optimal performance:
- `MaxOpenConns`: 1 (SQLite only supports one writer at a time)
- `MaxIdleConns`: 1
