How to use sqlite3 module with electron?

by

By far the easiest way to use SQLite with electron is with electron-builder.

First, add a postinstall step in your package.json:

"scripts": {
   "postinstall": "install-app-deps"
   ...
}

and then install the necessary dependencies and build:

npm install --save-dev electron-builder
npm install --save sqlite3
npm run postinstall

electron-builder will build the native module for your platform, with the correct name for the Electron binding; and you can then require it in code as normal.

See my github repo and blog post – it took me quite a while to figure this out too.
