Python DB-API module for SQLite 3. | ||
The original DB-API 2.0 module for SQLite3, developed by Gerhard Häring | ||
primarily between 2004 and 2006. | ||
|
||
Online documentation can be found [here](https://pysqlite.readthedocs.org/en/latest/sqlite3.html). | ||
It was incorporated into the Python standard library with the Python 2.5 | ||
release in 2006 as the _sqlite3_ module. For some time, it still received | ||
updates in this repository, both for existing users and to cross-port fixes | ||
between this repo and the Python standard library version. | ||

The version in the Python standard library, however, quickly got a lot more | ||
usage and traction, so this repository became less and less useful. You are | ||
safe to consider this repository mostly unmaintained. | ||
|
||
This project is not actively maintained any more: You are better off using the | ||
"sqlite3" module in the Python standard library, which originated from the | ||
pysqlite codebase. | ||
If all of this does not deter you, online documentation can be found | ||
[here](https://pysqlite.readthedocs.org/en/latest/sqlite3.html). | ||

If having the full SQLite3 API exposed to Python is more important than DB-API | ||
2.0 compatibility, then you should use APSW instead: | ||
https://github.com/rogerbinns/apsw/ It is a great piece of software and well | ||
maintained by Roger Binns. |
