Limbo

A modern SQLite-compatible database library built with Rust.

Features

• Asynchronous I/O support (wip)
• WebAssembly bindings (wip)
• SQLite file format compatibility (read-only)

Getting Started

Limbo is currently read-only. You can either use the sqlite3 program to create a 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:

./testing/gen-database.py

You can then start the Limbo shell with:

$ cargo run database.db
Welcome to Limbo SQL shell!
> SELECT * FROM users LIMIT 1;
