SQLite is a database type that supports PDO.<\/p>\n<p>Perform the following steps to connect SQLite using PDO :<\/p>\n<p>1. Using the following PHP code, connect to the SQLite database. Replace username with MilesWeb Hosting account username, path with the path of the database file, and filename with the name of the database file:<\/p>\n<pre class=\"trim-whitespace:false lang:default decode:true\">&lt;?php\n\n&nbsp; &nbsp;$myPDO = new PDO('sqlite:\/home\/<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">username<\/span>\/<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">path<\/span>\/<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">filename<\/span>');\n\n?&gt;<\/pre>\n<p>Suppose, if you have a SQLite database named books.db in your home directory, and the username is example, then you can use the following statement :<\/p>\n<pre class=\"trim-whitespace:false lang:default decode:true \">&lt;?php\n\n&nbsp; &nbsp;$myPDO = new PDO('sqlite:\/home\/example\/books.db');\n\n?&gt;<\/pre>\n<p>2. Once the code connects to the SQLite database, you can run SQL queries and perform other operations. As an example, the following PHP code runs a SQL query that extracts the last names from the employees table, and stores the result in the $resultvariable :<\/p>\n<pre class=\"trim-whitespace:false lang:default decode:true \">&lt;?php\n\n&nbsp; &nbsp;$result = $myPDO-&gt;query(\"SELECT lastname FROM employees\");\n\n?&gt;<\/pre>\n<p>This is one method to access the result set&#8217;s values and print them :<\/p>\n<pre class=\"trim-whitespace:false lang:default decode:true \">&lt;?php\n\n&nbsp; &nbsp;foreach($result as $row)\n\n&nbsp; &nbsp;{\n\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;print $row['lastname'] . \"\\n\";\n\n&nbsp; &nbsp;}\n\n?&gt;<\/pre>\n<p>For more information on PDO visit :<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.php.net\/manual\/en\/book.pdo.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">http:\/\/www.php.net\/manual\/en\/book.pdo.php.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>This is the easiest way to connect to SQLite using PHP.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also Read :<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.milesweb.in\/hosting-faqs\/steps-to-create-a-php-redirect\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong> Steps to Create a PHP Redirect<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.milesweb.in\/hosting-faqs\/how-to-create-mysql-tables-in-phpmyadmin\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong> How To Create MySQL Tables In phpMyAdmin?<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.milesweb.in\/hosting-faqs\/steps-to-enable-php-error-logging-automation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong> Steps to Enable PHP Error Logging &amp; Automation<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This article will guide you on how to connect to the SQLite database using PHP.
