SQLite cheat sheet

lists the most common SQLite statements that help you work with SQLite more quickly and effectively.

Managing databases

Attach another database to the current database connection:

ATTACH DATABASE file_name AS database_name;

Optimize the database:

VACUUM

Managing Tables

Create a new table:

CREATE TABLE [IF NOT EXISTS] table(


primary_key INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
column_name type NOT NULL,
column_name type NULL,
...

Rename a table:

ALTER TABLE table_name RENAME TO new_name;

Add a new column to a table:

ALTER TABLE table ADD COLUMN column_definition;

Drop an existing column in a table:

ALTER TABLE table DROP COLUMN column_name;

Drop a table and its data:

DROP TABLE [IF EXISTS] table_name;

Managing indexes

Creating an index

CREATE [UNIQUE] INDEX index_name


ON table_name (c1,c2,...)
Delete an index:

DROP INDEX index_name;

Create an expression index:

CREATE INDEX index_name ON table_name(expression);


Querying Data

Query all data from a table

SELECT * FROM table_name;

Query data from the specified column of a table:

SELECT c1, c2
FROM table_name;

Query unique rows

SELECT DISTINCT (c1)


FROM table_name;

Query rows that match a condition using a WHERE clause.

SELECT *
FROM table_name
WHERE condition;

Rename column in the query’s output:

SELECT c1 AS new_name
FROM table_name;

Query data from multiple tables using inner join, left join

SELECT *
FROM table_name_1
INNER JOIN table_name_2 ON condition;

SELECT *
FROM table_name_1
LEFT JOIN table_name_2 ON condition;

Count rows returned by a query:

SELECT COUNT (*)


FROM table_name;
Sort rows using ORDER BY clause:

SELECT c1, c2
FROM table_name
ORDER BY c1 ASC [DESC], c2 ASC [DESC],...;

Group rows using GROUP BY clause.

SELECT *
FROM table_name
GROUP BY c1, c2, ...;

Filter group of rows using HAVING clause.

SELECT c1, aggregate(c2)


FROM table_name
GROUP BY c1 HAVING condition;
Changing Data

Insert a row into a table:

INSERT INTO table_name(column1,column2,...)


VALUES(value_1,value_2,...);

Insert multiple rows into a table in a single statement:

INSERT INTO table_name(column1,column2,...)


VALUES(value_1,value_2,...),
(value_1,value_2,...),
(value_1,value_2,...)...

Update all rows in a table:

UPDATE table_name
SET c1 = v1,
...

Update rows that match with a condition:

UPDATE table_name
SET c1 = v1,
...
WHERE condition;

Delete all rows in a table

DELETE FROM table;


Delete rows specified by a condition:

DELETE FROM table


WHERE condition;

Search

Search using LIKE operator:

SELECT * FROM table


WHERE column LIKE '%value%'

Search using full-text search:

SELECT *
FROM table
WHERE table MATCH 'search_query';
