# `x/sqlite_fastrand` Deno Module [](https://github.com/asg017/sqlite-fastrand/releases) [](https://doc.deno.land/https/deno.land/x/sqlite-fastrand@0.2.1/mod.ts) The [`sqlite-fastrand`](https://github.com/asg017/sqlite-fastrand) SQLite extension is available to Deno developers with the [`x/sqlite_fastrand`](https://deno.land/x/sqlite_fastrand) Deno module. It works with [`x/sqlite3`](https://deno.land/x/sqlite3), the fastest and native Deno SQLite3 module. ```js import { Database } from "https://deno.land/x/sqlite3@0.8.0/mod.ts"; import * as sqlite_fastrand from "https://deno.land/x/sqlite_fastrand@v0.2.1/mod.ts"; const db = new Database(":memory:"); db.enableLoadExtension = true; db.loadExtension(sqlite_fastrand.getLoadablePath()); const [version] = db .prepare("select fastrand_version()") .value<[string]>()!; console.log(version); ``` Like `x/sqlite3`, `x/sqlite_fastrand` requires network and filesystem permissions to download and cache the pre-compiled SQLite extension for your machine. Though `x/sqlite3` already requires `--allow-ffi` and `--unstable`, so you might as well use `--allow-all`/`-A`. ```bash deno run -A --unstable ``` `x/sqlite_fastrand` does not work with [`x/sqlite`](https://deno.land/x/sqlite@v3.7.0), which is a WASM-based Deno SQLite module that does not support loading extensions.
