Per the sqlite docs, LIKE is case-insensitive.
> The LIKE operator does a pattern matching comparison. The operand to
the right of the LIKE operator contains the pattern and the left hand
operand contains the string to match against the pattern. A percent
symbol ("%") in the LIKE pattern matches any sequence of zero or more
characters in the string. An underscore ("_") in the LIKE pattern
matches any single character in the string. **Any other character
matches itself or its lower/upper case equivalent (i.e. case-insensitive
matching)**. Important Note: SQLite only understands upper/lower case
for ASCII characters by default. The LIKE operator is case sensitive by
default for unicode characters that are beyond the ASCII range. For
example, the expression 'a' LIKE 'A' is TRUE but 'æ' LIKE 'Æ' is FALSE.
The ICU extension to SQLite includes an enhanced version of the LIKE
operator that does case folding across all unicode characters.
Note that sqlite does not support case-insensitive comparisons of
unicode characters by default. This PR _does not_ match that behavior
currently. I can change things to not support unicode-case-
insensitivity, but as I understand it, doing so may require disable the
unicode-case feature on the regex crate, and potentially using a
`regex::bytes::Regex`, instead of a `regex::Regex`. (Basically, doing
some stuff that would not match anyone's initial assumptions about how
this would work).
Closes #333
Limbo
Limbo is a work-in-progress, in-process OLTP database management system, compatible with SQLite.
Features
- In-process OLTP database engine library
- Asynchronous I/O support with
io_uring - SQLite compatibility (status)
- SQL dialect support
- File format support
- SQLite C API
- JavaScript/WebAssembly bindings (wip)
Getting Started
Installing:
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -LsSf \
https://github.com/penberg/limbo/releases/latest/download/limbo-installer.sh | sh
Limbo is currently work-in-progress so it's recommended that you either use the sqlite3 program to create a test database:
$ sqlite3 database.db
SQLite version 3.42.0 2023-05-16 12:36:15
Enter ".help" for usage hints.
sqlite> CREATE TABLE users (id INT PRIMARY KEY, username TEXT);
sqlite> INSERT INTO users VALUES (1, 'alice');
sqlite> INSERT INTO users VALUES (2, 'bob');
or use the testing script to generate one for you:
pipenv run ./testing/gen-database.py
You can then start the Limbo shell with:
$ limbo database.db
Welcome to Limbo SQL shell!
> SELECT * FROM users LIMIT 1;

FAQ
How is Limbo different from libSQL?
Limbo is a research project to build a SQLite compatible in-process database in Rust with native async support. The libSQL project, on the other hand, is an open source, open contribution fork of SQLite, with focus on production features such as replication, backups, encryption, and so on. There is no hard dependency between the two projects. Of course, if Limbo becomes widely successful, we might consider merging with libSQL, but that is something that will be decided in the future.
