Go SQLite VFS API
This package implements the SQLite OS Interface (aka VFS).
It replaces the default SQLite VFS with a pure Go implementation, and exposes interfaces that should allow you to implement your own custom VFSes.
Since it is a from scratch reimplementation, there are naturally some ways it deviates from the original.
The main differences are file locking and WAL mode support.
File Locking
POSIX advisory locks, which SQLite uses on Unix, are broken by design. Instead, on Linux and macOS, this package uses OFD locks to synchronize access to database files.
This package can also use
BSD locks,
albeit with reduced concurrency (BEGIN IMMEDIATE
behaves like BEGIN EXCLUSIVE
).
BSD locks are the default on BSD and illumos,
but you can opt into them with the sqlite3_flock
build tag.
On Windows, this package uses LockFileEx
and UnlockFileEx
,
like SQLite.
You can also opt into a cross-platform locking implementation
with the sqlite3_dotlk
build tag.
Otherwise, file locking is not supported, and you must use
nolock=1
(or immutable=1
)
to open database files.
To use the database/sql
driver
with nolock=1
you must disable connection pooling by calling
db.SetMaxOpenConns(1)
.
You can use vfs.SupportsFileLocking
to check if your build supports file locking.
Write-Ahead Logging
On Unix, this package may use mmap
to implement
shared-memory for the WAL-index,
like SQLite.
On Windows, this package may use MapViewOfFile
, like SQLite.
You can also opt into a cross-platform, in-process, memory sharing implementation
with the sqlite3_dotlk
build tag.
Otherwise, WAL support is limited,
and EXCLUSIVE
locking mode must be set to create, read, and write WAL databases.
To use EXCLUSIVE
locking mode with the
database/sql
driver
you must disable connection pooling by calling
db.SetMaxOpenConns(1)
.
You can use vfs.SupportsSharedMemory
to check if your build supports shared memory.
Batch-Atomic Write
On Linux, this package may support batch-atomic writes on the F2FS filesystem.
Checksums
This package can be configured
to add an 8-byte checksum to the end of every page in an SQLite database.
The checksum is added as each page is written
and verified as each page is read.
The checksum is intended to help detect database corruption
caused by random bit-flips in the mass storage device.
The implementation is compatible with SQLite's Checksum VFS Shim.
Build Tags
The VFS can be customized with a few build tags:
sqlite3_flock
forces the use of BSD locks.sqlite3_dotlk
forces the use of dot-file locks.
Important
The default configuration of this package is compatible with the standard Unix and Windows SQLite VFSes;
sqlite3_flock
builds are compatible with theunix-flock
VFS;sqlite3_dotlk
builds are compatible with theunix-dotfile
VFS. If incompatible file locking is used, accessing databases concurrently with other SQLite libraries will eventually corrupt data.
