# squire-sqlite3-sys
[Squire][] is a crate for embedding [SQLite][] in Rust. This `squire-sqlite3-sys` crate links SQLite into the application, exposing the [C API][] of SQLite to Rust.
Users of Squire don't need to interact with this crate directly, and can treat it as an implementation detail.

## External Users
By default, `squire-sqlite3-sys` ships a [predefined set][default] of `extern "C"` declarations for SQLite. This includes only the API’s actually used by Squire.
To instead generate complete bindings based on the installed or bundled `sqlite3.h` header, activate the [`bindgen`][bindgen] feature.
