<h1>Use SQLite and PHP</h1>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>XAMPP comes with built-in support for SQLite, making it easy to get started building database-powered applications with PHP. This guide will walk you through the process of creating and populating a new SQLite database using XAMPP, then accessing the data within it using PHP.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Begin by creating and populating a new database using the SQLite command-line client, as below:</p>
</div>
<div class="olist arabic">
<ol class="arabic">
<li>
<p>Open your Windows command prompt by clicking the “Shell” button in the XAMPP control panel.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Change to the <em>htdocs\</em> subdirectory of your XAMPP installation directory (typically <em>C:\xampp</em>) and create a new SQLite database file named <em>mydb.sq3</em> with the SQLite command-line client:</p>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>cd C:\xampp\htdocs
sqlite3 mydb.sq3</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>You should now see an SQLite prompt, as below:</p>
</div>
<div class="imageblock">
<div class="content">
<img src="./images/use-sqlite/image1.png" alt="image1">
</div>
</div>
</li>
<li>
<p>At the <em>sqlite&gt;</em> prompt, create a new table to hold your data. In this example, the table is named items and it contains 3 columns, for item ID, item name and item cost. You can use standard CREATE TABLE syntax to create the table, and you can <a href="http://www.sqlite.org/datatype3.html">learn more about SQLite&#8217;s built-in datatypes here</a>.</p>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>CREATE TABLE items (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, name TEXT, price REAL);</pre>
</div>
</div>
</li>
<li>
<p>Add some data to the new inventory table using INSERT commands, as shown below:</p>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>INSERT INTO items VALUES ('1001', 'Salt', 3.15);
INSERT INTO items VALUES ('1002', 'Pepper', 2.75);
INSERT INTO items VALUES ('1003', 'Eggs', 2.00);
INSERT INTO items VALUES ('1004', 'Bacon', 7.25);
INSERT INTO items VALUES ('1005', 'Milk', 1.15);
INSERT INTO items VALUES ('1006', 'Strawberries', 8.73);
INSERT INTO items VALUES ('1007', 'Cereal', 2.65);</pre>
</div>
</div>
</li>
<li>
<p>You can now also run a SELECT query on the data. For example, the query below returns all items that cost less than $3:</p>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>SELECT * FROM items WHERE price &lt; 3.00;</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="imageblock">
<div class="content">
<img src="./images/use-sqlite/image2.png" alt="image2">
</div>
</div>
</li>
<li>
<p>Once you&#8217;re done using the database, exit it by typing <em>.quit</em> at the <em>sqlite&gt;</em> prompt.</p>
</li>
</ol>
</div>
<div class="admonitionblock important">
<table>
<tr>
<td class="icon">
<i class="fa icon-important" title="Important"></i>
</td>
<td class="content">
The database file (in this example, <em>mydb.sq3</em>) contains all your tables and data, so you should remember to back it up regularly.
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The previous steps discussed how to create and use an SQLite database using the command-line client. However, more often than not, you&#8217;ll be using an SQLite database in combination with a PHP-powered Web application. XAMPP includes the PHP SQLite extension, so doing this is not very difficult at all.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>To connect to your SQLite database and execute queries on it with PHP, use your text editor to create an example script named <em>sqlite.php</em> in the <em>htdocs</em> subdirectory of your XAMPP installation directory and fill it with the following code:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>&lt;?php
$db = new SQLite3('mydb.sq3');
$sql = "SELECT * FROM items WHERE price &lt; 3.00";
$result = $db-&gt;query($sql);
while ($row = $result-&gt;fetchArray(SQLITE3_ASSOC)){
echo $row['name'] . ': $' . $row['price'] . '&lt;br/&gt;';
}
unset($db);</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The first line of code creates a new SQLite3 object, using the <em>mydb.sq3</em> database file you created earlier. Then, the object&#8217;s <em>query()</em> method is used to execute a SELECT query on the database, and the result object&#8217;s <em>fetchArray()</em> method is used to iterate over the result set. Adding the SQLITE3_ASSOC parameter to the <em>fetchArray()</em> method tells PHP to return the results as an associative array, making it easy to access individual fields of the result set and display them on a Web page.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Once done, save your changes and ensure that your Apache server is running. Then, browse to <a href="http://localhost/sqlite.php" class="bare">http://localhost/sqlite.php</a> to execute the script. You should see something like this:</p>
