sqlite3_library_linux 2.1.0+2

Flutter package to bundle sqlite3 library to your linux apps

This package is no longer maintained.

This package was created to provide a simple way to bundle sqlite3 with your apps on Linux as sqlite3_flutter_libs didn't provide support for this platform. This is no longer the case so I recommend the use of sqlite3_flutter_libs. Thanks to Simolus for this update!

SQLite3 library for linux

This package help you bundle SQLite3 library to your apps.

It can be used with packages like Moor to make the SQLite opening process easier (See: How to use with Moor).

How to use

Add an override for linux and give it the openSQLiteOnLinux function provided by the package:

import 'package:sqlite3/sqlite3.dart';
import 'package:sqlite3/open.dart';
import 'package:sqlite3_library_linux/sqlite3_library_linux.dart';
 
late final Database db;
void main() {
  open.overrideFor(OperatingSystem.linux, openSQLiteOnLinux);
    
  // For database file creation and more please see the example
  db = sqlite3.open([YOUR_DB_FILE]);
     
  runApp(MyApp());
}

And... that's it! No need to provide your own sqlite3.so file 🙂

How to use with Moor

Be sure to follow all the steps to migrate from moor_flutter to moor ffi (docs).

Then add an override for linux and give it the openSQLiteOnLinux function provided the package:

import 'package:sqlite3/sqlite3.dart';
import 'package:sqlite3/open.dart';
import 'package:sqlite3_library_linux/sqlite3_library_linux.dart';
 
void main() {
  open.overrideFor(OperatingSystem.linux, openSQLiteOnLinux);
  final db = sqlite3.openInMemory();
  db.dispose();
     
  runApp(MyApp());
}
