EasyDB

A really simple SQLite wrapper that saves you from having to worry about creating tables or managing connections.

It can be used on existing SQLite database by simply passing in the database filename:

from easydb import EasyDB
db = EasyDB('filename.db')
cursor = db.query("SELECT * FROM mytable")

New databases can be creating by specifying your schema as a dictionary, eg:

schema = {
    'table_name': ['column_name column_type', …],
    'table_name': ['column_name column_type', …],
    'table_name': ['column_name column_type', …]
}
db = EasyDB('filename.db', schema)

If the database file already exists then the schema won't be updated, but if it doesn't exist then it'll be created with the given schema. Here's a full example:

from easydb import EasyDB
db = EasyDB('my.db', {'users': ['username text', 'description text']})

db.query("INSERT INTO users (username, description) VALUES (?, ?)", ('ben', 'some sort of description'))

for result in db.query("SELECT * FROM users"):
    print result
# => ('ben', 'some sort of description')
