Note that ``pysqlite`` is the same driver as the ``sqlite3``
|
|
module included with the Python distribution.
|
|
|
|
Driver
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
The ``sqlite3`` Python DBAPI is standard on all modern Python versions;
|
|
for cPython and Pypy, no additional installation is necessary.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Connect Strings
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
The file specification for the SQLite database is taken as the "database"
|
|
portion of the URL. Note that the format of a SQLAlchemy url is::
|
|
|
|
driver://user:pass@host/database
|
|
|
|
This means that the actual filename to be used starts with the characters to
|
|
the **right** of the third slash. So connecting to a relative filepath
|
|
looks like::
|
|
|
|
# relative path
|
|
e = create_engine('sqlite:///path/to/database.db')
|
|
|
|
An absolute path, which is denoted by starting with a slash, means you
|
|
need **four** slashes::
|
|
|
|
# absolute path
|
|
e = create_engine('sqlite:////path/to/database.db')
|
|
|
|
To use a Windows path, regular drive specifications and backslashes can be
|
|
used. Double backslashes are probably needed::
|
|
|
|
# absolute path on Windows
|
|
e = create_engine('sqlite:///C:\\path\\to\\database.db')
|
|
|
|
The sqlite ``:memory:`` identifier is the default if no filepath is
|
|
present. Specify ``sqlite://`` and nothing else::
|
|
|
|
# in-memory database
|
|
e = create_engine('sqlite://')
|
|
|
|
.. _pysqlite_uri_connections:
|
|
|
|
URI Connections
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
Modern versions of SQLite support an alternative system of connecting using a
|
|
`driver level URI <https://www.sqlite.org/uri.html>`_, which has the advantage
|
|
that additional driver-level arguments can be passed including options such as
|
|
"read only". The Python sqlite3 driver supports this mode under modern Python
|
|
3 versions. The SQLAlchemy pysqlite driver supports this mode of use by
|
|
specifing "uri=true" in the URL query string. The SQLite-level "URI" is kept
|
|
as the "database" portion of the SQLAlchemy url (that is, following a slash)::
|
|
|
|
e = create_engine("sqlite:///file:path/to/database?mode=ro&uri=true")
|
|
|
|
.. note:: The "uri=true" parameter must appear in the **query string**
|
|
of the URL. It will not currently work as expected if it is only
|
|
present in the :paramref:`.create_engine.connect_args` parameter dictionary.
|
|
|
|
The logic reconciles the simultaneous presence of SQLAlchemy's query string and
|
|
SQLite's query string by separating out the parameters that belong to the
|
|
Python sqlite3 driver vs. those that belong to the SQLite URI. This is
|
|
achieved through the use of a fixed list of parameters known to be accepted by
|
|
the Python side of the driver. For example, to include a URL that indicates
|
|
the Python sqlite3 "timeout" and "check_same_thread" parameters, along with the
|
|
SQLite "mode" and "nolock" parameters, they can all be passed together on the
|
|
query string::
|
|
|
|
e = create_engine(
|
|
"sqlite:///file:path/to/database?"
|
|
"check_same_thread=true&timeout=10&mode=ro&nolock=1&uri=true"
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
Above, the pysqlite / sqlite3 DBAPI would be passed arguments as::
|
|
|
|
sqlite3.connect(
|
|
"file:path/to/database?mode=ro&nolock=1",
|
|
check_same_thread=True, timeout=10, uri=True
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
Regarding future parameters added to either the Python or native drivers. new
|
|
parameter names added to the SQLite URI scheme should be automatically
|
|
accommodated by this scheme. New parameter names added to the Python driver
|
|
side can be accommodated by specifying them in the
|
|
:paramref:`.create_engine.connect_args` dictionary, until dialect support is
|
|
added by SQLAlchemy. For the less likely case that the native SQLite driver
|
|
adds a new parameter name that overlaps with one of the existing, known Python
|
|
driver parameters (such as "timeout" perhaps), SQLAlchemy's dialect would
|
|
require adjustment for the URL scheme to continue to support this.
|
|
|
|
As is always the case for all SQLAlchemy dialects, the entire "URL" process
|
|
can be bypassed in :func:`.create_engine` through the use of the
|
|
:paramref:`.create_engine.creator` parameter which allows for a custom callable
|
|
that creates a Python sqlite3 driver level connection directly.

|
|
Compatibility with sqlite3 "native" date and datetime types
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The pysqlite driver includes the sqlite3.PARSE_DECLTYPES and
|
|
sqlite3.PARSE_COLNAMES options, which have the effect of any column
|
|
or expression explicitly cast as "date" or "timestamp" will be converted
|
|
to a Python date or datetime object. The date and datetime types provided
|
|
with the pysqlite dialect are not currently compatible with these options,
|
|
since they render the ISO date/datetime including microseconds, which
|
|
pysqlite's driver does not. Additionally, SQLAlchemy does not at
|
|
this time automatically render the "cast" syntax required for the
|
|
freestanding functions "current_timestamp" and "current_date" to return
|
|
datetime/date types natively. Unfortunately, pysqlite
|
|
does not provide the standard DBAPI types in ``cursor.description``,
|
|
leaving SQLAlchemy with no way to detect these types on the fly
|
|
without expensive per-row type checks.
|
|
|
|
Keeping in mind that pysqlite's parsing option is not recommended,
|
|
nor should be necessary, for use with SQLAlchemy, usage of PARSE_DECLTYPES
|
|
can be forced if one configures "native_datetime=True" on create_engine()::
|
|
|
|
engine = create_engine('sqlite://',
|
|
connect_args={'detect_types':
|
|
sqlite3.PARSE_DECLTYPES|sqlite3.PARSE_COLNAMES},
|
|
native_datetime=True
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
With this flag enabled, the DATE and TIMESTAMP types (but note - not the
|
|
DATETIME or TIME types...confused yet ?) will not perform any bind parameter
|
|
or result processing. Execution of "func.current_date()" will return a string.
|
|
"func.current_timestamp()" is registered as returning a DATETIME type in
|
|
SQLAlchemy, so this function still receives SQLAlchemy-level result
|
|
processing.
|
|
|
|
.. _pysqlite_threading_pooling:
|
|
|
|
Threading/Pooling Behavior
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
Pysqlite's default behavior is to prohibit the usage of a single connection
|
|
in more than one thread. This is originally intended to work with older
|
|
versions of SQLite that did not support multithreaded operation under
|
|
various circumstances. In particular, older SQLite versions
|
|
did not allow a ``:memory:`` database to be used in multiple threads
|
|
under any circumstances.
|
|
|
|
Pysqlite does include a now-undocumented flag known as
|
|
``check_same_thread`` which will disable this check, however note that
|
|
pysqlite connections are still not safe to use in concurrently in multiple
|
|
threads. In particular, any statement execution calls would need to be
|
|
externally mutexed, as Pysqlite does not provide for thread-safe propagation
|
|
of error messages among other things. So while even ``:memory:`` databases
|
|
can be shared among threads in modern SQLite, Pysqlite doesn't provide enough
|
|
thread-safety to make this usage worth it.
|
|
|
|
SQLAlchemy sets up pooling to work with Pysqlite's default behavior:
|
|
|
|
* When a ``:memory:`` SQLite database is specified, the dialect by default
|
|
will use :class:`.SingletonThreadPool`. This pool maintains a single
|
|
connection per thread, so that all access to the engine within the current
|
|
thread use the same ``:memory:`` database - other threads would access a
|
|
different ``:memory:`` database.
|
|
* When a file-based database is specified, the dialect will use
|
|
:class:`.NullPool` as the source of connections. This pool closes and
|
|
discards connections which are returned to the pool immediately. SQLite
|
|
file-based connections have extremely low overhead, so pooling is not
|
|
necessary. The scheme also prevents a connection from being used again in
|
|
a different thread and works best with SQLite's coarse-grained file locking.
|
|
|
|
Using a Memory Database in Multiple Threads
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
To use a ``:memory:`` database in a multithreaded scenario, the same
|
|
connection object must be shared among threads, since the database exists
|
|
only within the scope of that connection. The
|
|
:class:`.StaticPool` implementation will maintain a single connection
|
|
globally, and the ``check_same_thread`` flag can be passed to Pysqlite
|
|
as ``False``::
|
|
|
|
from sqlalchemy.pool import StaticPool
|
|
engine = create_engine('sqlite://',
|
|
connect_args={'check_same_thread':False},
|
|
poolclass=StaticPool)
|
|
|
|
Note that using a ``:memory:`` database in multiple threads requires a recent
|
|
version of SQLite.
|
|
|
|
Using Temporary Tables with SQLite
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
Due to the way SQLite deals with temporary tables, if you wish to use a
|
|
temporary table in a file-based SQLite database across multiple checkouts
|
|
from the connection pool, such as when using an ORM :class:`.Session` where
|
|
the temporary table should continue to remain after :meth:`.Session.commit` or
|
|
:meth:`.Session.rollback` is called, a pool which maintains a single
|
|
connection must be used. Use :class:`.SingletonThreadPool` if the scope is
|
|
only needed within the current thread, or :class:`.StaticPool` is scope is
|
|
needed within multiple threads for this case::
|
|
|
|
# maintain the same connection per thread
|
|
from sqlalchemy.pool import SingletonThreadPool
|
|
engine = create_engine('sqlite:///mydb.db',
|
|
poolclass=SingletonThreadPool)
|
|
|
|
|
|
# maintain the same connection across all threads
|
|
from sqlalchemy.pool import StaticPool
|
|
engine = create_engine('sqlite:///mydb.db',
|
|
poolclass=StaticPool)
|
|
|
|
Note that :class:`.SingletonThreadPool` should be configured for the number
|
|
of threads that are to be used; beyond that number, connections will be
|
|
closed out in a non deterministic way.
|
|
|
|
Unicode
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
The pysqlite driver only returns Python ``unicode`` objects in result sets,
|
|
never plain strings, and accommodates ``unicode`` objects within bound
|
|
parameter values in all cases. Regardless of the SQLAlchemy string type in
|
|
use, string-based result values will by Python ``unicode`` in Python 2.
|
|
The :class:`.Unicode` type should still be used to indicate those columns that
|
|
require unicode, however, so that non-``unicode`` values passed inadvertently
|
|
will emit a warning. Pysqlite will emit an error if a non-``unicode`` string
|
|
is passed containing non-ASCII characters.
|
|
|
|
.. _pysqlite_serializable:
|
|
|
|
Serializable isolation / Savepoints / Transactional DDL
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
In the section :ref:`sqlite_concurrency`, we refer to the pysqlite
|
|
driver's assortment of issues that prevent several features of SQLite
|
|
from working correctly. The pysqlite DBAPI driver has several
|
|
long-standing bugs which impact the correctness of its transactional
|
|
behavior. In its default mode of operation, SQLite features such as
|
|
SERIALIZABLE isolation, transactional DDL, and SAVEPOINT support are
|
|
non-functional, and in order to use these features, workarounds must
|
|
be taken.
|
|
|
|
The issue is essentially that the driver attempts to second-guess the user's
|
|
intent, failing to start transactions and sometimes ending them prematurely, in
|
|
an effort to minimize the SQLite databases's file locking behavior, even
|
|
though SQLite itself uses "shared" locks for read-only activities.
|
|
|
|
SQLAlchemy chooses to not alter this behavior by default, as it is the
|
|
long-expected behavior of the pysqlite driver; if and when the pysqlite
|
|
driver attempts to repair these issues, that will be more of a driver towards
|
|
defaults for SQLAlchemy.
|
|
|
|
The good news is that with a few events, we can implement transactional
|
|
support fully, by disabling pysqlite's feature entirely and emitting BEGIN
|
|
ourselves. This is achieved using two event listeners::
|
|
|
|
from sqlalchemy import create_engine, event
|
|
|
|
engine = create_engine("sqlite:///myfile.db")
|
|
|
|
@event.listens_for(engine, "connect")
|
|
def do_connect(dbapi_connection, connection_record):
|
|
# disable pysqlite's emitting of the BEGIN statement entirely.
|
|
# also stops it from emitting COMMIT before any DDL.
|
|
dbapi_connection.isolation_level = None
|
|
|
|
@event.listens_for(engine, "begin")
|
|
def do_begin(conn):
|
|
# emit our own BEGIN
|
|
conn.execute("BEGIN")
|
|
|
|
Above, we intercept a new pysqlite connection and disable any transactional
|
|
integration. Then, at the point at which SQLAlchemy knows that transaction
|
|
scope is to begin, we emit ``"BEGIN"`` ourselves.
|
|
|
|
When we take control of ``"BEGIN"``, we can also control directly SQLite's
|
|
locking modes, introduced at
|
|
`BEGIN TRANSACTION <http://sqlite.org/lang_transaction.html>`_,
|
|
by adding the desired locking mode to our ``"BEGIN"``::
|
|
|
|
@event.listens_for(engine, "begin")
|
|
def do_begin(conn):
|
|
conn.execute("BEGIN EXCLUSIVE")
|
|
|
|
