sqlite-extras-rs

Copy/paste of ecto_sqlite3_extras. Helper queries providing insights into the Sqlite database.

Installation

cargo install sqlite-extras

Usage

Package expects the $SQLITE_EXTRAS_DATABASE_URL or $DATABASE_URL env in the following format:

export DATABASE_URL="sqlite://your_database.db"

You can use sqlextras shell command:

Available queries

total_size

The total size of all tables and indices. It's a summary table, it has only 2 columns: name and value. Rows:

• cells: The number of cells in the DB. Each value stored in the DB is represented as at least one cell. So, the number of cells correlates with the number of records in the DB.
• payload_size: How much space the actual useful payload takes in the DB.
• unused_size: How much space in the DB is reserved, not used yet, and can be used later to store more data. This is a surplus that occurs because SQLite allocates space for data in chunks ("pages").
• vacuum_size: How much space is unused and cannot be used for future data. You can run VACUUM command to reduce it.
• page_size: The total space occupied by all pages. Each page is a single chunk of space allocated by SQLite. This number is the sum of payload_size, unused_size, and vacuum_size.
• pages: The total number of pages.
• pages: leaf: The pages that store the actual data. Read SQLite Internals: Pages & B-trees to learn more.
• pages: internal: The pages that store ranges for leaf pages for a faster lookup. Sometimes also called "interior pages".
• pages: overflow: The pages that store chunks of big data that don't fit in a single leaf page.
• pages: table: The pages used for storing data for tables.
• pages: index: The pages used for storing indices.

table_size

Information about the space used (and unused) by all tables. Based on the dbstat virtual table.

• name: The table name.
• payload_size.
• unused_size.
• vacuum_size.
• page_size.
• cells.
• pages.
• max_payload_size: The size of the biggest payload in the table.

index_size

Size of all indices.

• name: The index name.
• table_name: The table where the index is defined.
• column_name: The name of the column being indexed. This column is NULL if the column is the rowid or an expression.
• payload_size.
• unused_size.
• page_size.
• cells.
• pages.
• max_payload_size.

sequence_number

Sequence numbers of autoincrement columns. Generated based on the sqlite_sequence table. The query will fail if there are no autoincrement columns in the DB yet.

• table_name.
• sequence_number.

pragma

List values of PRAGMAs (settings). Only includes the ones that have an integer or a boolean value. For brevity, the ones with the 0 (false) value are excluded from the output (based on the observation that this is the default value for most of the PRAGMAs). Check out the SQLite documentation to learn more about what each PRAGMA means: PRAGMA Statements.

• name: the name of the PRAGMA as listed in the SQLite documentation.
• value: the value of the PRAGMA. The true value is converted into 1 (and false is simply excluded).

compile_options

List the compile-time options used when building SQLite, one option per row. The "SQLITE_" prefix is omitted from the returned option names. See exqlite docs on how to change these options.

integrity_check

Run integrity checks on the database. Executes PRAGMA integrity_check and returns the resulting messages.
