for the connection, you can set the *cached_statements* parameter. The currently
implemented default is to cache 100 statements.

If *uri* is true, *database* is interpreted as a URI. This allows you
to specify options. For example, to open a database in read-only mode
you can use::

db = sqlite3.connect('file:path/to/database?mode=ro', uri=True)

More information about this feature, including a list of recognized options, can
be found in the `SQLite URI documentation <https://www.sqlite.org/uri.html>`_.
If *uri* is :const:`True`, *database* is interpreted as a
:abbr:`URI (Uniform Resource Identifier)` with a file path and an optional
query string. The scheme part *must* be ``"file:"``. The path can be a
relative or absolute file path. The query string allows us to pass
parameters to SQLite. Some useful URI tricks include::

# Open a database in read-only mode.
con = sqlite3.connect("file:template.db?mode=ro", uri=True)

# Don't implicitly create a new database file if it does not already exist.
# Will raise sqlite3.OperationalError if unable to open a database file.
con = sqlite3.connect("file:nosuchdb.db?mode=rw", uri=True)

# Create a shared named in-memory database.
con1 = sqlite3.connect("file:mem1?mode=memory&cache=shared", uri=True)
con2 = sqlite3.connect("file:mem1?mode=memory&cache=shared", uri=True)
con1.executescript("create table t(t); insert into t values(28);")
rows = con2.execute("select * from t").fetchall()

More information about this feature, including a list of recognized
parameters, can be found in the
`SQLite URI documentation <https://www.sqlite.org/uri.html>`_.
