Struct ConnectionRef 

pub struct ConnectionRef<'ctx> { /* private fields */ }

A reference to a connection handle with a lifetime bound to something.

Methods from Deref<Target = Connection>

pub fn backup<P: AsRef<Path>>( &self, name: DatabaseName<'_>, dst_path: P, progress: Option<fn(Progress)>, ) -> Result<()>

feature = "backup" Back up the name database to the given destination path.

If progress is not None, it will be called periodically until the backup completes.

For more fine-grained control over the backup process (e.g., to sleep periodically during the backup or to back up to an already-open database connection), see the backup module.

Failure

Will return Err if the destination path cannot be opened or if the backup fails.

pub fn blob_open<'a>( &'a self, db: DatabaseName<'_>, table: &str, column: &str, row_id: i64, read_only: bool, ) -> Result<Blob<'a>>

feature = "blob" Open a handle to the BLOB located in row_id, column, table in database db.

Failure

Will return Err if db/table/column cannot be converted to a C-compatible string or if the underlying SQLite BLOB open call fails.

pub fn busy_timeout(&self, timeout: Duration) -> Result<()>

Set a busy handler that sleeps for a specified amount of time when a table is locked. The handler will sleep multiple times until at least “ms” milliseconds of sleeping have accumulated.

Calling this routine with an argument equal to zero turns off all busy handlers.

There can only be a single busy handler for a particular database connection at any given moment. If another busy handler was defined (using busy_handler) prior to calling this routine, that other busy handler is cleared.

Newly created connections currently have a default busy timeout of 5000ms, but this may be subject to change.

pub fn busy_handler(&self, callback: Option<fn(i32) -> bool>) -> Result<()>

Register a callback to handle SQLITE_BUSY errors.

If the busy callback is None, then SQLITE_BUSY is returned immediately upon encountering the lock. The argument to the busy handler callback is the number of times that the busy handler has been invoked previously for the same locking event. If the busy callback returns false, then no additional attempts are made to access the database and SQLITE_BUSY is returned to the application. If the callback returns true, then another attempt is made to access the database and the cycle repeats.

There can only be a single busy handler defined for each database connection. Setting a new busy handler clears any previously set handler. Note that calling busy_timeout() or evaluating PRAGMA busy_timeout=N will change the busy handler and thus clear any previously set busy handler.

Newly created connections default to a busy_timeout() handler with a timeout of 5000ms, although this is subject to change.

pub fn prepare_cached(&self, sql: &str) -> Result<CachedStatement<'_>>

Prepare a SQL statement for execution, returning a previously prepared (but not currently in-use) statement if one is available. The returned statement will be cached for reuse by future calls to prepare_cached once it is dropped.

fn insert_new_people(conn: &Connection) -> Result<()> {
    {
        let mut stmt = conn.prepare_cached("INSERT INTO People (name) VALUES (?)")?;
        stmt.execute(&["Joe Smith"])?;
    }
    {
        // This will return the same underlying SQLite statement handle without
        // having to prepare it again.
        let mut stmt = conn.prepare_cached("INSERT INTO People (name) VALUES (?)")?;
        stmt.execute(&["Bob Jones"])?;
    }
    Ok(())
}

Failure

Will return Err if sql cannot be converted to a C-compatible string or if the underlying SQLite call fails.

pub fn set_prepared_statement_cache_capacity(&self, capacity: usize)

Set the maximum number of cached prepared statements this connection will hold. By default, a connection will hold a relatively small number of cached statements. If you need more, or know that you will not use cached statements, you can set the capacity manually using this method.

pub fn flush_prepared_statement_cache(&self)

Remove/finalize all prepared statements currently in the cache.

pub fn create_collation<'c, C>( &'c self, collation_name: &str, x_compare: C, ) -> Result<()>

where C: Fn(&str, &str) -> Ordering + Send + UnwindSafe + 'c,

feature = "collation" Add or modify a collation.

pub fn collation_needed( &self, x_coll_needed: fn(&Connection, &str) -> Result<()>, ) -> Result<()>

feature = "collation" Collation needed callback

pub fn remove_collation(&self, collation_name: &str) -> Result<()>

feature = "collation" Remove collation.

pub fn db_config(&self, config: DbConfig) -> Result<bool>

Returns the current value of a config.

• SQLITE_DBCONFIG_ENABLE_FKEY: return false or true to indicate whether FK enforcement is off or on
• SQLITE_DBCONFIG_ENABLE_TRIGGER: return false or true to indicate whether triggers are disabled or enabled
• SQLITE_DBCONFIG_ENABLE_FTS3_TOKENIZER: return false or true to indicate whether fts3_tokenizer are disabled or enabled
• SQLITE_DBCONFIG_NO_CKPT_ON_CLOSE: return false to indicate checkpoints-on-close are not disabled or true if they are
• SQLITE_DBCONFIG_ENABLE_QPSG: return false or true to indicate whether the QPSG is disabled or enabled
• SQLITE_DBCONFIG_TRIGGER_EQP: return false to indicate output-for-trigger are not disabled or true if it is

pub fn set_db_config(&self, config: DbConfig, new_val: bool) -> Result<bool>

Make configuration changes to a database connection

• SQLITE_DBCONFIG_ENABLE_FKEY: false to disable FK enforcement, true to enable FK enforcement
• SQLITE_DBCONFIG_ENABLE_TRIGGER: false to disable triggers, true to enable triggers
• SQLITE_DBCONFIG_ENABLE_FTS3_TOKENIZER: false to disable fts3_tokenizer(), true to enable fts3_tokenizer()
• SQLITE_DBCONFIG_NO_CKPT_ON_CLOSE: false (the default) to enable checkpoints-on-close, true to disable them
• SQLITE_DBCONFIG_ENABLE_QPSG: false to disable the QPSG, true to enable QPSG
• SQLITE_DBCONFIG_TRIGGER_EQP: false to disable output for trigger programs, true to enable it

pub fn create_scalar_function<'c, F, T>( &'c self, fn_name: &str, n_arg: c_int, flags: FunctionFlags, x_func: F, ) -> Result<()>

where F: FnMut(&Context<'_>) -> Result<T> + Send + UnwindSafe + 'c, T: ToSql,

feature = "functions" Attach a user-defined scalar function to this database connection.

fn_name is the name the function will be accessible from SQL. n_arg is the number of arguments to the function. Use -1 for a variable number. If the function always returns the same value given the same input, deterministic should be true.

The function will remain available until the connection is closed or until it is explicitly removed via remove_function.

Example

fn scalar_function_example(db: Connection) -> Result<()> {
    db.create_scalar_function(
        "halve",
        1,
        FunctionFlags::SQLITE_UTF8 | FunctionFlags::SQLITE_DETERMINISTIC,
        |ctx| {
            let value = ctx.get::<f64>(0)?;
            Ok(value / 2f64)
        },
    )?;

    let six_halved: f64 = db.query_row("SELECT halve(6)", [], |r| r.get(0))?;
    assert_eq!(six_halved, 3f64);
    Ok(())
}

Failure

Will return Err if the function could not be attached to the connection.

pub fn create_aggregate_function<A, D, T>( &self, fn_name: &str, n_arg: c_int, flags: FunctionFlags, aggr: D, ) -> Result<()>

where A: RefUnwindSafe + UnwindSafe, D: Aggregate<A, T>, T: ToSql,

feature = "functions" Attach a user-defined aggregate function to this database connection.

Failure

Will return Err if the function could not be attached to the connection.

pub fn create_window_function<A, W, T>( &self, fn_name: &str, n_arg: c_int, flags: FunctionFlags, aggr: W, ) -> Result<()>

where A: RefUnwindSafe + UnwindSafe, W: WindowAggregate<A, T>, T: ToSql,

feature = "window" Attach a user-defined aggregate window function to this database connection.

See https://sqlite.org/windowfunctions.html#udfwinfunc for more information.

pub fn remove_function(&self, fn_name: &str, n_arg: c_int) -> Result<()>

feature = "functions" Removes a user-defined function from this database connection.

fn_name and n_arg should match the name and number of arguments given to create_scalar_function or create_aggregate_function.

Failure

Will return Err if the function could not be removed.

pub fn limit(&self, limit: Limit) -> i32

feature = "limits" Returns the current value of a limit.

pub fn set_limit(&self, limit: Limit, new_val: i32) -> i32

feature = "limits" Changes the limit to new_val, returning the prior value of the limit.

pub fn pragma_query_value<T, F>( &self, schema_name: Option<DatabaseName<'_>>, pragma_name: &str, f: F, ) -> Result<T>

where F: FnOnce(&Row<'_>) -> Result<T>,

Query the current value of pragma_name.

Some pragmas will return multiple rows/values which cannot be retrieved with this method.

Prefer PRAGMA function introduced in SQLite 3.20: SELECT user_version FROM pragma_user_version;

pub fn pragma_query<F>( &self, schema_name: Option<DatabaseName<'_>>, pragma_name: &str, f: F, ) -> Result<()>

where F: FnMut(&Row<'_>) -> Result<()>,

Query the current rows/values of pragma_name.

Prefer PRAGMA function introduced in SQLite 3.20: SELECT * FROM pragma_collation_list;

pub fn pragma<F>( &self, schema_name: Option<DatabaseName<'_>>, pragma_name: &str, pragma_value: &dyn ToSql, f: F, ) -> Result<()>

where F: FnMut(&Row<'_>) -> Result<()>,

Query the current value(s) of pragma_name associated to pragma_value.

This method can be used with query-only pragmas which need an argument (e.g. table_info('one_tbl')) or pragmas which returns value(s) (e.g. integrity_check).

Prefer PRAGMA function introduced in SQLite 3.20: SELECT * FROM pragma_table_info(?);

pub fn pragma_update( &self, schema_name: Option<DatabaseName<'_>>, pragma_name: &str, pragma_value: &dyn ToSql, ) -> Result<()>

Set a new value to pragma_name.

Some pragmas will return the updated value which cannot be retrieved with this method.

pub fn pragma_update_and_check<F, T>( &self, schema_name: Option<DatabaseName<'_>>, pragma_name: &str, pragma_value: &dyn ToSql, f: F, ) -> Result<T>

where F: FnOnce(&Row<'_>) -> Result<T>,

Set a new value to pragma_name and return the updated value.

Only few pragmas automatically return the updated value.

pub fn unchecked_transaction(&self) -> Result<Transaction<'_>>

Begin a new transaction with the default behavior (DEFERRED).

Attempt to open a nested transaction will result in a SQLite error. Connection::transaction prevents this at compile time by taking &mut self, but Connection::unchecked_transaction() may be used to defer the checking until runtime.

See Connection::transaction and Transaction::new_unchecked (which can be used if the default transaction behavior is undesirable).

Example

fn perform_queries(conn: Rc<Connection>) -> Result<()> {
    let tx = conn.unchecked_transaction()?;

    do_queries_part_1(&tx)?; // tx causes rollback if this fails
    do_queries_part_2(&tx)?; // tx causes rollback if this fails

    tx.commit()
}

Failure

Will return Err if the underlying SQLite call fails. The specific error returned if transactions are nested is currently unspecified.

pub fn create_module<'vtab, T: VTab<'vtab>>( &self, module_name: &str, module: &'static Module<'vtab, T>, aux: Option<T::Aux>, ) -> Result<()>

feature = "vtab" Register a virtual table implementation.

Step 3 of Creating New Virtual Table Implementations.

pub fn execute_batch(&self, sql: &str) -> Result<()>

Convenience method to run multiple SQL statements (that cannot take any parameters).

Example

fn create_tables(conn: &Connection) -> Result<()> {
    conn.execute_batch("BEGIN;
                        CREATE TABLE foo(x INTEGER);
                        CREATE TABLE bar(y TEXT);
                        COMMIT;",
    )
}

Failure

Will return Err if sql cannot be converted to a C-compatible string or if the underlying SQLite call fails.

pub fn execute<P: Params>(&self, sql: &str, params: P) -> Result<usize>

Convenience method to prepare and execute a single SQL statement.

On success, returns the number of rows that were changed or inserted or deleted (via sqlite3_changes).

Example

With positional params

fn update_rows(conn: &Connection) {
    match conn.execute("UPDATE foo SET bar = 'baz' WHERE qux = ?", [1i32]) {
        Ok(updated) => println!("{} rows were updated", updated),
        Err(err) => println!("update failed: {}", err),
    }
}

With positional params of varying types

fn update_rows(conn: &Connection) {
    match conn.execute("UPDATE foo SET bar = 'baz' WHERE qux = ?", [1i32]) {
        Ok(updated) => println!("{} rows were updated", updated),
        Err(err) => println!("update failed: {}", err),
    }
}

With named params

fn insert(conn: &Connection) -> Result<usize> {
    conn.execute(
        "INSERT INTO test (name) VALUES (:name)",
        rusqlite::named_params!{ ":name": "one" },
    )
}

Failure

Will return Err if sql cannot be converted to a C-compatible string or if the underlying SQLite call fails.

pub fn execute_named( &self, sql: &str, params: &[(&str, &dyn ToSql)], ) -> Result<usize>

👎Deprecated: You can use execute with named params now.

Convenience method to prepare and execute a single SQL statement with named parameter(s).

On success, returns the number of rows that were changed or inserted or deleted (via sqlite3_changes).

Failure

Will return Err if sql cannot be converted to a C-compatible string or if the underlying SQLite call fails.

pub fn last_insert_rowid(&self) -> i64

Get the SQLite rowid of the most recent successful INSERT.

Uses sqlite3_last_insert_rowid under the hood.

pub fn query_row<T, P, F>(&self, sql: &str, params: P, f: F) -> Result<T>

where P: Params, F: FnOnce(&Row<'_>) -> Result<T>,

Convenience method to execute a query that is expected to return a single row.

Example

fn preferred_locale(conn: &Connection) -> Result<String> {
    conn.query_row(
        "SELECT value FROM preferences WHERE name='locale'",
        [],
        |row| row.get(0),
    )
}

If the query returns more than one row, all rows except the first are ignored.

Returns Err(QueryReturnedNoRows) if no results are returned. If the query truly is optional, you can call .optional() on the result of this to get a Result<Option<T>>.

Failure

Will return Err if sql cannot be converted to a C-compatible string or if the underlying SQLite call fails.

pub fn query_row_named<T, F>( &self, sql: &str, params: &[(&str, &dyn ToSql)], f: F, ) -> Result<T>

where F: FnOnce(&Row<'_>) -> Result<T>,

👎Deprecated: You can use query_row with named params now.

Convenience method to execute a query with named parameter(s) that is expected to return a single row.

If the query returns more than one row, all rows except the first are ignored.

Returns Err(QueryReturnedNoRows) if no results are returned. If the query truly is optional, you can call .optional() on the result of this to get a Result<Option<T>>.

Failure

Will return Err if sql cannot be converted to a C-compatible string or if the underlying SQLite call fails.

pub fn query_row_and_then<T, E, P, F>( &self, sql: &str, params: P, f: F, ) -> Result<T, E>

where P: Params, F: FnOnce(&Row<'_>) -> Result<T, E>, E: From<Error>,

Convenience method to execute a query that is expected to return a single row, and execute a mapping via f on that returned row with the possibility of failure. The Result type of f must implement std::convert::From<Error>.

Example

fn preferred_locale(conn: &Connection) -> Result<String> {
    conn.query_row_and_then(
        "SELECT value FROM preferences WHERE name='locale'",
        [],
        |row| row.get(0),
    )
}

If the query returns more than one row, all rows except the first are ignored.

Failure

Will return Err if sql cannot be converted to a C-compatible string or if the underlying SQLite call fails.

pub fn prepare(&self, sql: &str) -> Result<Statement<'_>>

Prepare a SQL statement for execution.

Example

fn insert_new_people(conn: &Connection) -> Result<()> {
    let mut stmt = conn.prepare("INSERT INTO People (name) VALUES (?)")?;
    stmt.execute(&["Joe Smith"])?;
    stmt.execute(&["Bob Jones"])?;
    Ok(())
}

Failure

Will return Err if sql cannot be converted to a C-compatible string or if the underlying SQLite call fails.

pub fn load_extension_enable(&self) -> Result<()>

feature = "load_extension" Enable loading of SQLite extensions. Strongly consider using LoadExtensionGuard instead of this function.

Example

fn load_my_extension(conn: &Connection) -> Result<()> {
    conn.load_extension_enable()?;
    conn.load_extension(Path::new("my_sqlite_extension"), None)?;
    conn.load_extension_disable()
}

Failure

Will return Err if the underlying SQLite call fails.

pub fn load_extension_disable(&self) -> Result<()>

feature = "load_extension" Disable loading of SQLite extensions.

See load_extension_enable for an example.

Failure

Will return Err if the underlying SQLite call fails.

pub fn load_extension<P: AsRef<Path>>( &self, dylib_path: P, entry_point: Option<&str>, ) -> Result<()>

feature = "load_extension" Load the SQLite extension at dylib_path. dylib_path is passed through to sqlite3_load_extension, which may attempt OS-specific modifications if the file cannot be loaded directly.

If entry_point is None, SQLite will attempt to find the entry point. If it is not None, the entry point will be passed through to sqlite3_load_extension.

Example

fn load_my_extension(conn: &Connection) -> Result<()> {
    let _guard = LoadExtensionGuard::new(conn)?;

    conn.load_extension("my_sqlite_extension", None)
}

Failure

Will return Err if the underlying SQLite call fails.

pub unsafe fn handle(&self) -> *mut sqlite3

Get access to the underlying SQLite database connection handle.

Warning

You should not need to use this function. If you do need to, please open an issue on the rusqlite repository and describe your use case.

Safety

This function is unsafe because it gives you raw access to the SQLite connection, and what you do with it could impact the safety of this Connection.

pub fn get_interrupt_handle(&self) -> InterruptHandle

Get access to a handle that can be used to interrupt long running queries from another thread.

pub fn is_autocommit(&self) -> bool

Test for auto-commit mode. Autocommit mode is on by default.

pub fn is_busy(&self) -> bool

Determine if all associated prepared statements have been reset.
