In this chapter, you will learn how to use SQLite in PHP programs.
Installation
SQLite3 extension is enabled by default as of PHP 5.3.0. It's possible to disable it by using withoutsqlite3 at
compile time.
Windows users must enable php_sqlite3.dll in order to use this extension. This DLL is included with Windows
distributions of PHP as of PHP 5.3.0.
For detailed installation instructions, kindly check our PHP tutorial and its official website.
PHP Interface APIs
Following are important PHP routines which can suffice your requirement to work with SQLite database from
your PHP program. If you are looking for a more sophisticated application, then you can look into PHP official
documentation.
Sr.No. API & Description
1
public void SQLite3::open f ilename, f lags, encryption k
ey
Opens SQLite 3 Database. If the build includes encryption, then it will attempt to use the key.
If the filename is given as ':memory:', SQLite3::open will create an inmemory database in RAM
that lasts only for the duration of the session.
If the filename is actual device file name, SQLite3::open attempts to open the database file by using
its value. If no file by that name exists, then a new database file by that name gets created.
Optional flags used to determine how to open the SQLite database. By default, open uses
SQLITE3_OPEN_READWRITE | SQLITE3_OPEN_CREATE.
2
public bool SQLite3::exec string$query
This routine provides a quick, easy way to execute SQL commands provided by sql argument, which
can consist of more than one SQL command. This routine is used to execute a resultless query
against a given database.

public SQLite3Result SQLite3::query string$query
This routine executes an SQL query, returning an SQLite3Result object if the query returns
results.
4
public int SQLite3::lastErrorCode void
This routine returns the numeric result code of the most recent failed SQLite request.
5
public string SQLite3::lastErrorMsg void
This routine returns English text describing the most recent failed SQLite request.
6
public int SQLite3::changes void
This routine returns the number of database rows that were updated, inserted, or deleted by the
most recent SQL statement.
7
public bool SQLite3::close void
This routine closes a database connection previously opened by a call to SQLite3::open.
8
public string SQLite3::escapeString string$value
This routine returns a string that has been properly escaped for safe inclusion in an SQL statement.
Connect to Database
Following PHP code shows how to connect to an existing database. If database does not exist, then it will be
created and finally a database object will be returned.
<?php
class MyDB extends SQLite3 {
function __construct() {
$this‐>open('test.db');
}
}
$db = new MyDB();
if(!$db) {
echo $db‐>lastErrorMsg();
8/8/2019 SQLite PHP
} else {
echo "Opened database successfully\n";
}
?>
Now, let's run the above program to create our database test.db in the current directory. You can change your
path as per your requirement. If the database is successfully created, then it will display the following message −
Open database successfully
Create a Table
Following PHP program will be used to create a table in the previously created database.
<?php
}
}
$db = new MyDB();
if(!$db) {
} else {
}
$sql =<<<EOF
CREATE TABLE COMPANY
(ID INT PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL,
NAME TEXT NOT NULL,
AGE INT NOT NULL,
ADDRESS CHAR(50),
SALARY REAL);
EOF;
$ret = $db‐>exec($sql);
if(!$ret){
} else {
echo "Table created successfully\n";
}
$db‐>close();
?>
When the above program is executed, it will create the COMPANY table in your test.db and it will display the
following messages −
Opened database successfully
Table created successfully
INSERT Operation
Following PHP program shows how to create records in the COMPANY table created in the above example.
8/8/2019 SQLite PHP
<?php
}
}

$db = new MyDB();
if(!$db){
} else {
}
$sql =<<<EOF
INSERT INTO COMPANY (ID,NAME,AGE,ADDRESS,SALARY)
VALUES (1, 'Paul', 32, 'California', 20000.00 );
VALUES (2, 'Allen', 25, 'Texas', 15000.00 );
VALUES (3, 'Teddy', 23, 'Norway', 20000.00 );
VALUES (4, 'Mark', 25, 'Rich‐Mond ', 65000.00 );
EOF;
if(!$ret) {
} else {
echo "Records created successfully\n";
}
$db‐>close();
?>
When the above program is executed, it will create the given records in the COMPANY table and will display the
following two lines.
Records created successfully
SELECT Operation
Following PHP program shows how to fetch and display records from the COMPANY table created in the above
example −
<?php
}
}

8/8/2019 SQLite PHP
$db = new MyDB();
if(!$db) {
} else {
}
$sql =<<<EOF
SELECT * from COMPANY;
EOF;
$ret = $db‐>query($sql);
while($row = $ret‐>fetchArray(SQLITE3_ASSOC) ) {
echo "ID = ". $row['ID'] . "\n";
echo "NAME = ". $row['NAME'] ."\n";
echo "ADDRESS = ". $row['ADDRESS'] ."\n";
echo "SALARY = ".$row['SALARY'] ."\n\n";
}
echo "Operation done successfully\n";
$db‐>close();
?>
When the above program is executed, it will produce the following result.
ID = 1
NAME = Paul
ADDRESS = California
SALARY = 20000
ID = 2
NAME = Allen
ADDRESS = Texas
SALARY = 15000
ID = 3
NAME = Teddy
ADDRESS = Norway
SALARY = 20000
ID = 4
NAME = Mark
ADDRESS = Rich‐Mond
SALARY = 65000
Operation done successfully
UPDATE Operation
Following PHP code shows how to use UPDATE statement to update any record and then fetch and display the
updated records from the COMPANY table.
<?php
8/8/2019 SQLite PHP
}
}

$db = new MyDB();
if(!$db) {
} else {
}
$sql =<<<EOF
UPDATE COMPANY set SALARY = 25000.00 where ID=1;
EOF;
if(!$ret) {
} else {
echo $db‐>changes(), " Record updated successfully\n";
}
$sql =<<<EOF
EOF;

echo "ID = ". $row['ID'] . "\n";
}
$db‐>close();
?>
1 Record updated successfully
ID = 1
NAME = Paul
SALARY = 25000
ID = 2
NAME = Allen
ADDRESS = Texas
SALARY = 15000
ID = 3
NAME = Teddy
ADDRESS = Norway
SALARY = 20000
ID = 4
NAME = Mark
8/8/2019 SQLite PHP
SALARY = 65000
DELETE Operation
Following PHP code shows how to use DELETE statement to delete any record and then fetch and display the
remaining records from the COMPANY table.
<?php
}
}

$db = new MyDB();
if(!$db) {
} else {
}
$sql =<<<EOF
DELETE from COMPANY where ID = 2;
EOF;

if(!$ret){
} else {
echo $db‐>changes(), " Record deleted successfully\n";
}
$sql =<<<EOF
EOF;
echo "ID = ". $row['ID'] . "\n";
}
$db‐>close();
?>
1 Record deleted successfully
ID = 1
NAME = Paul
8/8/2019 SQLite PHP
SALARY = 25000
ID = 3
NAME = Teddy
ADDRESS = Norway
SALARY = 20000
ID = 4
NAME = Mark
SALARY = 65000
