$ sqlite3 ${path-to-database-sqlite3} '${SELECT * FROM some_table;}'

try on your machine

The given command is used to interact with an SQLite3 database. Here's a breakdown of the command:

sqlite3: This is the command to execute the SQLite3 database management tool.

${path-to-database-sqlite3}: This is a placeholder indicating that you need to replace it with the actual path to the SQLite3 database file you want to query. It should be the path to the .sqlite3 file on your system.

'${SELECT * FROM some_table;}': This is the SQL query you want to execute. It selects all rows (*) from the table named "some_table". The query is enclosed within single quotes to ensure it is treated as a single argument by the command line.

To use this command, replace ${path-to-database-sqlite3} with the actual path to your SQLite3 database file. For example, if the file is located at /path/to/mydatabase.sqlite3, the command would look like this:

sqlite3 /path/to/mydatabase.sqlite3 'SELECT * FROM some_table;'

Executing this command will connect to the SQLite3 database and execute the SELECT query, fetching all rows from the "some_table" table and returning the result.
