This is a starting point for Rust solutions to the
["Build Your Own SQLite" Challenge](https://codecrafters.io/challenges/sqlite).
In this challenge, you'll build a barebones SQLite implementation that supports
basic SQL queries like `SELECT`. Along the way we'll learn about
[SQLite's file format](https://www.sqlite.org/fileformat.html), how indexed data
is
[stored in B-trees](https://jvns.ca/blog/2014/10/02/how-does-sqlite-work-part-2-btrees/)
and more.
**Note**: If you're viewing this repo on GitHub, head over to
[codecrafters.io](https://codecrafters.io) to signup for early access.
# Passing the first stage
The entry point for your SQLite implementation is in `src/main.rs`. Study and
uncomment the relevant code, and push your changes to pass the first stage:
```sh
git add .
git commit -m "pass 1st stage" # any msg
git push origin master
```
Time to move on to the next stage!
# Stage 2 & beyond
Note: This section is for stages 2 and beyond.
1. Ensure you have `cargo (1.54)` installed locally
1. Run `./your_sqlite3.sh` to run your program, which is implemented in
`src/main.rs`. This command compiles your Rust project, so it might be slow
the first time you run it. Subsequent runs will be fast.
1. Commit your changes and run `git push origin master` to submit your solution
to CodeCrafters. Test output will be streamed to your terminal.
# Sample Databases
To make it easy to test queries locally, we've added a sample database in the
root of this repository: `sample.db`.
This contains two tables: `apples` & `oranges`. You can use this to test your
implementation for the first 6 stages.
You can explore this database by running queries against it like this:
```sh
$ sqlite3 sample.db "select id, name from apples"
1|Granny Smith
2|Fuji
3|Honeycrisp
4|Golden Delicious
```
There are two other databases that you can use:
1. `superheroes.db`:
- This is a small version of the test database used in the table-scan stage.
- It contains one table: `superheroes`.
- It is ~1MB in size.
1. `companies.db`:
- This is a small version of the test database used in the index-scan stage.
- It contains one table: `companies`, and one index: `idx_companies_country`
- It is ~7MB in size.
These aren't included in the repository because they're large in size. You can
download them by running this script:
```sh
./download_sample_databases.sh
```
If the script doesn't work for some reason, you can download the databases
directly from
[codecrafters-io/sample-sqlite-databases](https://github.com/codecrafters-io/sample-sqlite-databases).
