say "Opening local SQLite database..."
db = sql.open("local.db")
# Create table
sql.execute(db, "CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS users (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, name TEXT)")
# Insert records
sql.execute(db, "INSERT INTO users (name) VALUES ('Alice')")
sql.execute(db, "INSERT INTO users (name) VALUES ('Bob')")
say "Querying users..."
rows = sql.query(db, "SELECT * FROM users ORDER BY id ASC")
for row in rows
say $"User #{row['id']}: {row['name']}"
end
# Clean up
sql.close(db)

Running the Example

tech run db.txs
