The command "sqlite-utils tables ${path-to-database-db}" is a command-line instruction that utilizes the "sqlite-utils" library to list all the tables present in a SQLite database.
Here's a breakdown of the command and its components:
-
"sqlite-utils" is a Python library that provides various utilities and tools for working with SQLite databases. It allows executing commands on SQLite databases from the command line.
-
"tables" is a sub-command provided by "sqlite-utils" that lists the names of all the tables within a given SQLite database.
-
"${path-to-database-db}" represents the placeholder for the file path to the SQLite database file (.db). You need to replace it with the actual path to the SQLite database file you want to inspect. It could be an absolute path or relative to the current working directory.
When you run this command in your command-line interface (e.g., Terminal or Command Prompt), it will execute the "tables" sub-command of "sqlite-utils" on the provided SQLite database file. The output will include a list of table names present in the specified database file.
