Execute SQLite script

Question

I start up sqlite3 version 3.7.7, unix 11.4.2 using this command:

sqlite3 auction.db

where auction.db has not already been created.

Answer 1

If you are using the windows CMD you can use this command to create a database using sqlite3

C:\sqlite3.exe DBNAME.db ".read DBSCRIPT.sql"

If you haven't a database with that name sqlite3 will create one, and if you already have one, it will run it anyways but with the "TABLENAME already exists" error, I think you can also use this command to change an already existing database (but im not sure)
