Sqlite Solutions
Solution 1 - Sqlite
A SQLite database is a regular file. It is created in your script current directory.
Solution 2 - Sqlite
.databases
If you run this command inside SQLite
.databases
it lists the path of all currently connected databases. Sample output:
seq name file
--- --------------- ----------------------------------------------------------
0 main /home/me/a.db
Solution 3 - Sqlite
There is no "standard place" for a sqlite database. The file's location is specified to the library, and may be in your home directory, in the invoking program's folder, or any other place.
If it helps, sqlite databases are, by convention, named with a .db file extension.
Solution 4 - Sqlite
If you are running Rails (its the default db in Rails) check the {RAILS_ROOT}/config/database.yml file and you will see something like:
database: db/development.sqlite3
This means that it will be in the {RAILS_ROOT}/db directory.
Solution 5 - Sqlite
When you call sqlite3_open() you specify the filepath the database is opened from/saved to, if it is not an absolute path it is specified relative to your current working directory.
Solution 6 - Sqlite
SQLit Database is simply a file where your local data is stored on your local machine
Solution 7 - Sqlite
SQLite is created in your python directory where you installed the python.
Solution 8 - Sqlite
In Windows 10 if in the prompt command the path where you start sqlite is
C:\users\USER_NAME
You can find it in the user home folder.
The .db file is stored where you start the sqlite command.
I hope this solve the issue
