SQLite - UPSERT *not* INSERT or REPLACE

Question

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upsert

Insert Update stored proc on SQL Server

Is there some clever way to do this in SQLite that I have not thought of?

Answer 1

I think this may be what you are looking for: ON CONFLICT clause.

If you define your table like this:

CREATE TABLE table1( 
    id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY ON CONFLICT REPLACE, 
    field1 TEXT 
); 

Now, if you do an INSERT with an id that already exists, SQLite automagically does UPDATE instead of INSERT.

Hth...
