(PHP 5 < 5.4.0, PECL sqlite >= 1.0.0)
sqlite_open — Opens an SQLite database and create the database if it does not exist
$filename
[, int $mode = 0666
[, string &$error_message
]] )面向对象风格 (constructor):
$filename
[, int $mode = 0666
[, string &$error_message
]] )Opens an SQLite database or creates the database if it does not exist.
filename
The filename of the SQLite database. If the file does not exist, SQLite will attempt to create it. PHP must have write permissions to the file if data is inserted, the database schema is modified or to create the database if it does not exist.
mode
The mode of the file. Intended to be used to open the database in read-only mode. Presently, this parameter is ignored by the sqlite library. The default value for mode is the octal value 0666 and this is the recommended value.
error_message
Passed by reference and is set to hold a descriptive error message explaining why the database could not be opened if there was an error.
Returns a resource (database handle) on success, FALSE on error.
Example #1 sqlite_open() example
<?php
if ($db = sqlite_open('mysqlitedb', 0666, $sqliteerror)) {
sqlite_query($db, 'CREATE TABLE foo (bar varchar(10))');
sqlite_query($db, "INSERT INTO foo VALUES ('fnord')");
$result = sqlite_query($db, 'select bar from foo');
var_dump(sqlite_fetch_array($result));
} else {
die($sqliteerror);
}
?>
On Unix platforms, SQLite is sensitive to scripts that use the fork() system call. If you do have such a script, it is recommended that you close the handle prior to forking and then re-open it in the child and/or parent. For more information on this issue, see » The C language interface to the SQLite library in the section entitled Multi-Threading And SQLite.
It is not recommended to work with SQLite databases mounted on NFS partitions. Since NFS is notoriously bad when it comes to locking you may find that you cannot even open the database at all, and if it succeeds, the locking behaviour may be undefined.
Note: Starting with SQLite library version 2.8.2, you can specify :memory: as the
filenameto create a database that lives only in the memory of the computer. This is useful mostly for temporary processing, as the in-memory database will be destroyed when the process ends. It can also be useful when coupled with the ATTACH DATABASE SQL statement to load other databases and move and query data between them.
Note: SQLite is 安全模式 and open_basedir aware.

This function only support database of SQLite 2 or below. For SQLite 3, you must use PDO.

I found that both the file and the directory it is in have to be writeable by the web server, or an ambiguous "unable to open database file" error appears (pecl 1.0.3). I pulled my hair out for ages before I realised that.

If you miss to set the permissions mentioned by ivoras Sqlite will drop an error message saying "Malformed database scheme", which is somehow misleading.
(I mentioned this as some [I did] might search php.net for this error message)

the above example dows not! work since sqlite_query() does not accept one argument, but only 2.
so correct is:
<?php
if ($db = sqlite_open('mysqlitedb', 0666, $sqliteerror)) {
sqlite_query($db,'CREATE TABLE foo (bar varchar(10))');
sqlite_query($db,"INSERT INTO foo VALUES ('fnord')");
$result = sqlite_query($db,'select bar from foo');
var_dump(sqlite_fetch_array($result));
} else {
die ($sqliteerror);
}
?>

Since sqlite uses a journal to do updates and inserts (and creates it on the fly), you ALSO must have write permissions set for the web server to write in the same DIRECTORY as the database file.
