Web SQLite

Web SQLite is a wrapper for SQLite Wasm that uses the Origin Private File System (OPFS) to persist the SQLite database file.

It only supports OPFS as a persistence mechanism.

Installation

npm install @magieno/web-sqlite

Bundling using NPM

This library has two important files: web-sqlite.js and web-sqlite-worker.js. Due to some browser restrictions, SQLite WASM can only persist over OPFS in a Worker. Behind the scenes, WebSqlite communicates with a worker to run the SQL statements and return you the results on the main thread.

1- Install the NPM package

npm install @magieno/web-sqlite

2- Import the web-sqlite library in your code

import {WebSqlite} from "@magieno/web-sqlite";

const webSqliteWorkerPath = "assets/js/web-sqlite-worker.js"; // Must correspond to the path in your final deployed build.
const filename = "/test.sqlite3"; // This is the name of your database. It corresponds to the path in the OPFS.

const sqliteClient = new WebSqlite(filename, webSqliteWorkerPath)
await sqliteClient.init();

await sqliteClient.executeSql("CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS test(a,b)");
await sqliteClient.executeSql("INSERT INTO test VALUES(?, ?)", [6,7]);
const results = await sqliteClient.executeSql("SELECT * FROM test");

3- Copy the node_modules/@magieno/web-sqlite/dist/bundle/web-sqlite-worker.js to your final bundle This is dependent on the framework you are using but the idea is that this .js file should be copied and available in your build.

4- You also need to copy the files third_party/sqlite/3.41.2/ file to your final bundle, in the same folder of your final bundle next to web-sqlite-worker.js.

5- Warning Your server must set the following Http headers when serving your files

Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy: same-origin

Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy: require-corp
