How to create a .db file from .sql - sqlite

I have a text file with .sql extension which contains code for building table and population values into columns.
How would I generate a .db sqlite file out of that

Assuming you are using SQLITE via a command the use the .read FILENAME to run the SQL you'd then use the .save FILENAME command to save the database (including the .db extension), alternately before using the .read command you could use .open FILENAME)
e.g. Using the file C:/User/Mike/mysql.sql as :-
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS mytable (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, mydata TEXT);
INSERT INTO mytable (mydata) VALUES('Fred'),('Mary'),('Sue'),('Tom');
SELECT * FROM mytable;
Starting a command window and then :-
Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.17134.407]

Use ".open FILENAME" to reopen on a persistent database.

How to include enviroment variables in SQLite3 query

I'm working on writing a batch file to pull data from multiple SQLite3 databases. I need to set 2 System environment variables then use them two environment variables within my SELECT statement.As this will run against multiple databases that are the same schema, but for different site locations. Currently 14 differen locations. What I have come up with so far is my main queryrun.bat file:
#echo off
setx /m DateStart '20200101'
setx /m DateEnd '20200103'
sqlite3 SiteID40.db < query40.dat
TIMEOUT /t 3
sqlite3 SiteID41.db < query41.dat
Then the query#.dat files look like this:
.mode list
.separator ,
.output results40.csv
SELECT * FROM FilesActive WHERE CompactDate >= %DateStart% and CompactDate <= %DateEnd%;
.quit
The %DateStart% and %DateEnd% is where I am wanting to insert the system variables of the same name. I have tried using $DateStart and %DateStart% both with no luck.
Any constructive help is appreciated. I must RE-ITERATE though that this is SQLite3 NOT MS SQL Server or mySQL.
Using the .param command in sqlite, something like this should work:
Change the .bat call from sqlite3 SiteID40.db < query40.dat to
sqlite3 SiteID40.db ".param set :DateStart %DateStart%" ".param set :DateEnd %DateEnd%" ".read query.dat"
Change the query#.dat file SELECTs to:
SELECT * FROM FilesActive WHERE CompactDate >= :DateStart and CompactDate <= :DateEnd;

How to export the query results from a Database Manager to a CVS file in SQLite?

I am using DataGrip or SQLiteStudio (database managers) to run a series of queries in a database which guide me to find the information that I require. The queries works well and the results are shown in the console of the Dabase Manager. However, I need to export the results that appears in the database manager console into a CVS file.
I have seen everybody works directly in the shell, but I need (I have to) to use a DB manager to run the queries (so far the queries that I need to run in one step are about 600 lines).
In the sqlite3 shell I am able to run (and works)
(.headers on)
(.mode csv)
(.output C:/filename.csv)
(select * from "6000_1000_Results";)
(.output stdout)
However, running this code in the sql editor of the DB manager, doesn´t work at all.
--(.....)
--(around 600 lines before)
--(.....)
"Material ID",
"Material Name",
SUM("Quantity of Material") Quantity
FROM
"6000_1000_Results_Temp"
GROUP BY
"DataCenterID", "Material ID";
------------------------------------------------------------
--(HERE IS WHERE I NEED TO EXPORT THE RESULTS IN A CVS FILE)
------------------------------------------------------------
.headers on
.mode csv
.output C:/NextCloudLuis/TemproDB.git/csvtest.csv
select * from "6000_1000_Results";
.output stdout
.show
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS "6000_1000_Results_Temp";
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS "6000_1000_Results";
Datagrip do not show any error, it runs the queries in a few seconds, but there´s no file anywhere, SQLiteStudio gives a syntax error.
Finally I solve this issue in the next steps:
I run over python all the queries using the lybrary sqlite3. Then the result of all the queries are saved in a pandas dataframe. Then the pandas dataframe is exported to a cvs and xlxs file.
Here is the python code:
import sqlite3
import queries
conn = sqlite3.connect("tempro.db") #make the database connection to python
level4000 = queries.level4000to1000(conn) #I call the function in queries.py
level4000.to_csv('Level4000to1000.csv') #export result ro cvs
level4000.to_excel('Level4000to1000.xlsx') #export result ro xlsx
conn.close()
and here is the python file where I save all the queries (queries.py)
import sqlite3
from sqlite3 import Error
import pandas as pd
def level4000to1000(conn):
cur = conn.cursor()
cur.executescript(
"""
/* Here I put all the 600 lines of queries */
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS "4000_1000_Results_Temp";
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS "4000_1000_Results";
/* Here more and more lines */
--To keep the results from all queries
CREATE TABLE "4000_1000_Results_Temp" (
"DeviceID" INTEGER,
"Device Name" TEXT,
SUM("Quantity of Material") Quantity
FROM
"4000_1000_Results_Temp"
GROUP BY
"DeviceID", "Material ID";
""")
df = pd.read_sql_query('''SELECT * FROM "4000_1000_Results";''', conn)
cur.executescript("""DROP TABLE IF EXISTS "4000_1000_Results_Temp";
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS "4000_1000_Results";""")
return df #returns a dataframe with the info results from the queries
In the end, it seems that there is no way to export results to file formats as cvs using SQL coding.

Silence unique constraint errors in sqlite

I'm loading CSV to sqlite db like this:
sqlite3 /path/to/output.db < /path/to/sqlite_commands.sql
The sqlite command file looks like this:
sqlite_commands.sql
CREATE TABLE products (
"c1" TEXT PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL,
"c2" TEXT,
"c3" TEXT
);
.mode csv
.import /tmp/csv_with_dups.csv products
and the csv looks like
/tmp/csv_with_dups.csv
c1,c2,c3
a,b,c
b,c,d
c,d,e
d,e,f
a,a,b
e,f,g
I am getting errors to stderr
/tmp/csv_with_dups.csv.tmp:6: INSERT failed: UNIQUE constraint failed: products.c1
I want to silence this error as we know that some csv have duplicates (the csv is generated by seperate mechanism on very large data set can can not validate duplicates at that stage)
I've tried adding this line per the documentation
.log off
also tried
.log stderr|off
also tried
.log stderr off
sqlite3
.help
...
.log FILE|off Turn logging on or off. FILE can be stderr/stdout
...
The "INSERT failed" message is always printed to stderr.
You could ignore stderr, but that would also suppress all other error messages:
sqlite3 ... 2>/dev/null
Alternatively, generate the SQL commands yourself so that you can use INSERT OR IGNORE:
import sys
import csv
def quote_sql_str(s):
return "'" + s.replace("'", "''") + "'"
print('BEGIN;')
with open(sys.argv[1], 'rb') as file:
for row in csv.reader(file):
print('INSERT OR IGNORE INTO products VALUES({});'
.format(','.join([quote_sql_str(s) for s in row])))
print('COMMIT;')
python script.py csv_with_dups.csv | sqlite3 /path/to/output.db
Alternatively, import into a temporary table without constraints, then copy into the real table with INSERT OR IGNORE.

i need solution to export file to my laptop, just like my script that i put ---sample title ....
i use that script from teradasql, and i am search for cmd script
If it's just a few MB and an adhoc export you can use SQL Assistant: Set the delimiter in Tools-Options-Export/Import, maybe modify the settings in Tools-Options-Export and then click File-Export Results before submitting your Select. (Similar in TD Studio)
Otherwise the easiest way to extract data in a readable delimited format is TPT, either Export for large amounts of data (GBs) or SQL Selector (MBs). TPT is available for most Operating Systems including Windows.
There's a nice User Guide with lots of example scripts:
Job Example 12: Extracting Rows and Sending Them in Delimited Format
In your case you'll define a generic template file like this:
DEFINE JOB EXPORT_DELIMITED_FILE
DESCRIPTION 'Export rows from a Teradata table to a delimited file'
(
APPLY TO OPERATOR ($FILE_WRITER() ATTR (Format = 'DELIMITED'))
SELECT * FROM OPERATOR ($SELECTOR ATTR (SelectStmt = #ExportSelectStmt));
);
Change $SELECTOR to $EXPORT for larger exports.
Then you just need a job variable file like this:
SourceTdpId = 'your system'
,SourceUserName = 'your user'
,SourceUserPassword = 'your password'
,FileWriterFileName = 'xxx.txt'
,ExportSelectStmt = 'select a.data1,b.data2,a.data3 from room1.REPORT_DAILY a
inner join room1.andaikan_saja b
on a.likeme=b.data2
where revenue=30000
and content_id like ''%super%''
and a.trx_date >= DATE ''2015-12-01'' -- modified this to a valid date literal
;'
The only bad part is that you have to double any single quotes within your select, e.g. '%super%' -> ''%super%''.
Finally you run a cmd:
tbuild -f your_template_file -v your_job_var_file
Depending on the volume of data you wish to extract from Teradata you can use Teradata BTEQ or the Teradata Parallel Transport (TPT) utility with the EXPORT operator from the command line to extract the data.
The TPT utility is the eventual replacement for the legacy Teradata Load and Unload utilities (FastLoad, MultiLoad, FastExport, and TPump) and provides an easier mechanism to produce delimited flat files over FastExport. TPT is fairly flexible and effective for exporting large volumes of data to channel or network attached clients.
Teradata BTEQ can perform lightweight load and unload functions. The BTEQ manual is pretty good at providing you an overview of how to use the various commands to produce a semi-structured report or data extract. It doesn't have a simple command to produce a delimited flat file. If you review the manual's overview of the EXPORT command you should get a good feel for how BTEQ behaves when working with channel or network attached clients.

What's the easiest way to use SQLite with SAS?

I want to investigate how to access SQLite DB from SAS. What's the easiest way of doing this? Is there a SAS product that we can license to do that? I don't want to use ODBC drivers as that seems to have been written a long time ago and is not officially part of SQLite.
SAS supports reading data from pipes (in a unix environment). Essentially, you can set up a filename statement to execute an sqlite command in the host environment, then process the command output as if reading it from a text file.
SAS Support page: http://support.sas.com/documentation/cdl/en/hostunx/61879/HTML/default/viewer.htm#pipe.htm
Example:
*----------------------------------------------
* (1) Write a command in place of the file path
* --> important: the 'pipe' option makes this work
*----------------------------------------------;
filename QUERY pipe 'sqlite3 database_file "select * from table_name"';
*----------------------------------------------
* (2) Use a datastep to read the output from sqlite
*----------------------------------------------;
options linesize=max; *to prevent truncation of results;
data table_name;
infile QUERY delimiter='|' missover dsd lrecl=32767;
length
numeric_id 8
numeric_field 8
character_field_1 $40
character_field_2 $20
wide_character_field $500
;
input
numeric_id
numeric_field $
character_field_1 $
character_field_2 $
wide_character_field $
;
run;
*----------------------------------------------
* (3) View the results, process data etc.
*----------------------------------------------;
