sqlite – How to get INSERT OR IGNORE to work

by

Replace

CREATE TABLE t (
    id          INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
    name        VARCHAR,
    other       INT
);

with 

CREATE TABLE t (
    id          INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
    name        VARCHAR UNIQUE,
    other       INT
);

Then you will get

sqlite> CREATE TABLE t (
   ...>     id          INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
   ...>     name        VARCHAR UNIQUE,
   ...>     other       INT
   ...> );
sqlite> INSERT OR IGNORE INTO t (name) VALUES ('a');
sqlite> INSERT OR IGNORE INTO t (name) VALUES ('a');
sqlite> INSERT OR IGNORE INTO t (name) VALUES ('a');
sqlite> select * from t ;
1|a|
