SQLiteBoy
Simple web-based management tool for SQLite database
(with form, report, website, and many other features)
(c) Noprianto <[email protected]>
2012-2019
License: GPL
Version: 1.83

SQLiteBoy is an independent product, developed separately from the
SQLite core library, which is maintained by SQLite.org.
Neither noprianto.com nor SQLite.org take any responsibility for the
work of the other.
  • Easy to use, python and web.py based, simple web-based management tool for SQLite database with user-defined functions and many extended features (Free/open source)

  • User-defined functions: number to words (multi language), number format, table lookup, hash, base64, random, additional date/time, additional string, regular expression, utility

  • If Extended feature is enabled:

    Multi user, simple (yet flexible) form (data entry) and reporting can be created by admin (simple JSON syntax), and can be run by admin/user (configurable). Very simple subform is also supported.

    Form field supports predefined values (options) from SQL Query or Python list. Also, default value can be result of function call, static value or SQL Query. Constraint is also supported, to check before save, to prevent saving invalid value (it's possible to call function before comparison). Onsave event is also supported, to execute SQL Query (and use the result) just before the data is saved.

    Reporting wizard also supports form field predefined values, default value and constraint (checking before reporting query is executed). Supported report format: PDF, HTML, HTML (printer friendly) and CSV.

    Form and Report support python handler, which will be automatically called, if provided. Python handler eases the integration with external system (for example: ERP system). Python handler also could be useful in, for example, complex database operation, reading from/writing to external devices, etc.

    User accounts, Notes, Files (with file sharing support), Page (home page), calculator, configurable hosts allowed, database backup, system configuration, Scripts, profile (with user-defined profile support) and others are available as extended features

    SQLiteBoy script (simple JSON syntax, single file) can be used to automate the creation of tables (including addition of columns, for existing table), forms, reports or user-defined profiles

    It is also possible to use SQLiteBoy to serve a website with custom URLs. URL can be handled by a python function, redirect, Files, template, or HTML. POST method is also supported and can be handled by python function.

  • Standalone version is no longer provided, but codes for this are still in the source code
  • Version 1.51 was released as a bug fix (reported in issue #1). In this commit, many lines (both in this file and the source code) had been added/deleted (due to text reformatting). Please, let me know if something was accidentally added or deleted.
  • As of v1.64, index URL was changed to /index because / is used for public home page (new in v1.64, please read WEBSITE AND CUSTOM URL REFERENCE)
  • Works with single SQLite database per instance

  • Single python file

  • Configurable port (default 11738 because it looks like sqliteboy). As of v1.75, it is possible to run SQLiteBoy as WSGI application, please read HOW TO RUN.

  • SSL Support

  • Basic/Extended Feature

    • Basic: Database management + User-defined function

    • Extended: Form, Report, User/Login, etc

      • Completely optional

      • Can be enabled in menu

      • If enabled, one table:

        _sqliteboy_
        

        will be created. You can delete this table and extended feature will be disabled

  • Form Support (Extended feature, new in v0.12)

    • Simple data entry
    • Simple syntax (JSON)
    • Please read FORM CODE REFERENCE section (below)
    • Readonly field
    • Required field
    • Predefined values (field options) from SQL Query or Python list
    • Default value: function call or static value or SQL Query
    • Constraint: check before save, prevent saving invalid value (possible to call function before comparison)
    • Simple security setting
    • As of v0.21, onsave event is also supported, to execute SQL Query (and use the result) just before the data is saved. The SQL Query can be very complex and involves nested function calls.
    • As of v0.26, very simple subform is also supported. Subform can be used in one to many relationship. However, field in subform is limited, compared to form.
    • As of v0.27, custom result message (based on SQL query result), is also supported.
    • As of v0.27, optional, additional SQL query statement(s) can be provided, and each of them will be executed in order, if you need to perform additional task(s), after the form data is saved (for example, write to another table). Previously, one might use report if need to write to several tables. Last insert rowid value is provided.
    • As of v0.75, insert into table can be disabled by setting insert key to zero/negative value. This is useful if you need to update/delete data in table(s), using additional SQL query statement(s). By default, form/subform save will insert new row(s) into table(s).
    • As of v0.98, form supports python handler, which will be automatically called, if provided. Python handler eases the integration with external system (for example: ERP system). Please read PYTHON HANDLER REFERENCE section.
    • As of v1.33, optional, (run before) additional SQL query statement(s) can be provided.
    • As of v1.72, links can be added to form
    • As of v1.73, form supports extended result message. This extends custom result message introduced in v0.27. Using extended result, it is possible to perform operations on form fields, and use the result. Like custom result message, it is based on SQL query result. But unlike custom result message, the result is not limited to integer (can be string or another types; probably returned from function call).

Command:

python sqliteboy.py <database_file> [port]

(if you are using source code)

or

python sqliteboy.py <database_file> [port] > LOGFILE 2>&1 &

(if you are using source code, sh compatible shell (with job control),
and want to run in the background. If applicable, You could use
/dev/null as LOGFILE if you don't care about the logs.)

then, using web browser, visit localhost:11738, or localhost:PORT, if PORT is specified

Please use https if SSL support is enabled

(Please also read SERVER COMMAND REFERENCE)

As of v1.62, it is possible to run multiple SQLiteBoy instances (single host, different ports / databases), as the HTTP cookie name is set based on database path.

As of v1.75, it is possible to run as WSGI application:

  • Please make sure that an SQLite database named data.db exists in current working directory (or, it can be an empty file)

  • If 'application' is expected:

    from sqliteboy import wsgi_application as application
    

As of v1.76, disk-based session is supported. If a readable/writable directory named sqliteboy-session is found in current working directory, disk-based session will be used. Otherwise, default memory-based session will be used.

  • sqliteboy.html, if found in current working directory
  • For template example: T_BASE variable
  • Please do not put '$def with (data, content)' line in template
  • To manage a website, please visit /admin/website (as admin), or visit info -> website

  • Custom URLs, as long as the URLs are not used by SQLiteBoy (reserved). List of reserved URLs is shown in website management screen.

  • URL can be handled by a python function, redirect, Files, template, or HTML

  • Each URL is specified by:

    • id: must be alphabetic only (maximum length: 36), converted to lowercase on save. This id is used in python handler.
    • url: must be alphanumeric/underscore/dot/slash/dash (maximum length: 128), converted to lowercase on save. This is the URL. Please read the additional rules below.
    • content: content, interpreted.
  • Additional URL rules:

    • Please use / for home page. Without this URL, / will be redirected to /index (and then /login if the user is not logged in)
    • Please start url with / (but do not end it with /)
  • Only valid values are saved (id and url are checked on save)

  • Content interpretation:

    • If there is a python function named web_<id> (in sqliteboy_user.py, please also read PYTHON HANDLER REFERENCE):
      • It will be called and the return value is used as dynamic contents (with custom HTTP headers)
      • If there is an exception, redirection to /index will be performed. Please make sure that the python function is valid.
    • If python handler for that URL is NOT available:
      • If the content looks like a number:
        • If the number is a valid file id:
          • Contents of the file will be returned (along with saved headers)
          • To set Content-Disposition as attachment, please set download parameter (for example: ?download=download or ?download=true)
          • Default Content-Disposition is inline
          • Valid file id:
            • Exists in Files
            • If user is logged in:
              • File sharing status is checked. If a file is not shared (and logged in user is not the owner), it is considered invalid. This applies for all users, including admin users.
        • If the number is NOT a valid file id:
          • Content will be returned
      • If it is NOT a number:
        • If the content starts with http:// or https://, redirection is performed
        • Otherwise, the content is interpreted as HTML with template
  • HTML template interpretation:

    • If there is an exception (or content is HTML), content will be returned as is

    • If this meant to be a template, please start the content with

      $def with (id, url, content, param)
      
    • The following globals are available to template:

      • Note: most user-defined functions are also available. Please read USER-DEFINED FUNCTION. Unavailable functions are marked with: not available in HTML template interpretation.

      • size: a function, requires no argument, returns database size as string

      • user: a function, requires no argument, returns logged in user name as string (or an empty string)

        table_browse(table, what='*', where=None, order=None, group=None, limit=None, offset=None)
        
      • begin: a function, to begin an HTML document

        begin(title='', style='', lang='en', charset='utf-8')
        
      • end: a function, to end an HTML document

      • redirect: a function, to redirect to a URL

        redirect(url, title='', after=0, lang='en')
        
      • redirect_check: a function, to redirect to a URL, if a condition is false. Otherwise, begin an HTML document.

        redirect_check(check, url, title_redirect='', after=0,
        lang='en', title='', style='', charset='utf-8')
        
      • redirect_user: a function, to redirect to a URL, if user is not logged in. Otherwise, begin an HTML document.

        redirect_user(url, title_redirect='', after=0,
        lang='en', title='', style='', charset='utf-8')
        
    • Please read web.py template for more information

    • Example (begin, end):

      $def with (id, url, content, param)
      $ a = begin(title='Hello')

  • Must be valid JSON syntax (json.org)
  • String (including keys below) must be double-quoted (between " and ")
  • No trailling comma in dict or list
  • Python dict (keys are case-sensitive)
  • Only single table is supported. If you need to write to another table after form data is saved, you can use additional SQL query statement(s) (see below).
  • Onsave event can be used to execute SQL Query (and use the result) just before the data is saved. The SQL Query can be very complex and involves nested function calls.
  • Very simple subform is also supported. Subform can be used in one to many relationship. However, fields in subform is limited, compared to form (only reference and default are supported; all is required; none is readonly; column(s) can be selected). When saving data, transaction is used.
  • Custom result message (based on SQL query result), is also supported.
  • Extended result message is supported, as an alternative to custom result message. Using extended result, it is possible to perform operations on form fields, and use the result. Like custom result message, it is based on SQL query result. But unlike custom result message, the result is not limited to integer (can be string or another types; probably returned from function call).
  • Optional, additional SQL query statement(s) can be provided, and each of them will be executed in order, if you need to perform additional task(s), after the form data is saved (for example, write to another table). Previously, one might use report if need to write to several tables. Last insert rowid value is provided.
  • Insert into table can be disabled by setting insert key to zero/negative value. This is useful if you need to update/delete data in table(s), using additional SQL query statement(s). By default, form/subform save will insert new row(s) into table(s). Please note that setting insert key to zero/negative value will also set last insert rowid/query result to same value as insert value.
  • Please also read PYTHON HANDLER REFERENCE section

  • Must be valid JSON syntax (json.org)
  • String (including keys below) must be double-quoted (between " and ")
  • No trailling comma in dict or list
  • Python dict (keys are case-sensitive)
  • All key (HTML input) in data is required. See Keys (data) below.
  • Report also can be used as form/data entry, using insert SQL query. Custom result message (based on SQL query result), is also supported. Using free form SQL query, data entry can work with multiple table.
  • Headers and footers are supported. If not defined, a default one will be created. Plain text, SQL Query, and Image are supported. Headers and footers are rendered as tables (multiple rows/columns; one table for headers, one table for footers). If there is difference in number of columns for each row, largest one will be used.
  • Default headers:
    • First row: first column (report title), second column (report info)
    • Next row(s): first column (search key), second column (user input)
  • Default footers (SELECT SQL):
    • First row: first column (number of rows), second column ("row(s)"/translated)
  • Default footers (NON-SELECT SQL):
    • First row: first column (message or ""), second column ("")
  • Printer friendly version of report result is supported in default output format (HTML)
  • Keys:

    (This is, however, might be different for each language)

  • Digits after the decimal point is limited only by python float (that is, very very long long number), so this is valid and supported number: 999999999999999999999999999.999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999

  • Script can be used to automate the creation of tables (including addition of columns, for existing table), forms, reports or user-defined profiles
  • Solution can be deployed in form of script, that can be uploaded and run by admin

  • Notes on forms, reports:
    • Multiple forms, reports support
    • Error, if there is existing form or report
    • Please read FORM CODE REFERENCE section (forms) or REPORT CODE REFERENCE section (reports)
  • Only valid value(s) will be read

select sqliteboy_as_integer(sqliteboy_x_profile('admin', 'company'))
  • Python handler eases the integration with external system (for example: ERP system). Python handler also could be useful in, for example, complex database operation, reading from/writing to external devices, etc.
  • Availability:
    • Form
    • Report
    • Website
  • All handlers must be put in sqliteboy_user.py, in current working directory.
  • Form:
    • Only one handler is allowed for each form. If provided, it will be called, automatically.
    • function name: form_<form_name>. Please rename this function, if you need to temporarily disable python handler for that form.
    • function arguments:
      • user: current user (str)
      • db: database connection object (web.py database object)
      • parsed: parsed form data (list)
      • user_data: list of user input (list)
      • data: additional data (helper functions, UDFs, templates, modules, etc) (dict)
    • Function must return an integer. To get this value, developer can use $python_handler in custom form message. If there is exception, -1 will be assigned to $python_handler.
    • Please note that python handler is an additional action, called at the end. It will not replace the default/built-in form handler.
    • Integration with external system, for example, can be done by reading user input value from SQLiteBoy, and writing to external system
  • Report:
    • Only one handler is allowed for each report. If provided, it will be called, automatically.
    • function name: report_<report_name>. Please rename this function, if you need to temporarily disable python handler for that report.
    • function arguments:
      • user: current user (str)
      • db: database connection object (web.py database object)
      • parsed: parsed report data (list)
      • user_data: list of user input (list)
      • data: additional data (helper functions, UDFs, templates, modules, etc) (dict)
    • Function may return an integer, list of dict or web.py database query result
    • Please note that python handler is a replacement to the sql query. Return value of function will be used as report result.
    • Integration with external system, for example, can be done by reading from external system
  • Website: please read WEBSITE AND CUSTOM URL REFERENCE
  • Server command (new in v0.81) can be used to do actions related to server, database, development, or advanced usage, at the server side. After running such command, SQLiteBoy server will quit.

  • Command is passed as third argument when running SQLiteBoy (after port)

  • Command may require additional arguments, which must be concatenated to the command (separated with a dash, for each argument)

  • Command may also require additional files to be present

  • Available commands:

    • generate_favicon (generates icon file, requires output file, new in v0.81):

      python sqliteboy.py test.db 11738 generate_favicon-sqliteboy.ico
      
    • generate_pyinstaller (generates spec file, requires output and icon file, new in v0.82):

      python sqliteboy.py test.db 11738 generate_pyinstaller-sqliteboy.spec-sqliteboy.ico
      
    • generate_build (generates version, icon, and spec file, new in v0.83):

      python sqliteboy.py test.db 11738 generate_build
      
    • generate_version (generates version file, requires output file, new in v1.07):

      python sqliteboy.py test.db 11738 generate_version-sqliteboy.version
      
    • enable_extended (enables extended features, new in v1.60):

      python sqliteboy.py test.db 11738 enable_extended
      
    • enable_extended_allow_all (enables extended features and allows all hosts, new in v1.60):

      python sqliteboy.py test.db 11738 enable_extended_allow_all
      
    • reset_admin_password (resets admin password to default password, new in v1.69):

      python sqliteboy.py test.db 11738 reset_admin_password
      
    • disable_log (temporarily disables log, new in v1.70):

      python sqliteboy.py test.db 11738 disable_log
      
    • restore_log (restores log, new in v1.70):

      python sqliteboy.py test.db 11738 restore_log
      
  • Note on usage:

    • generate_favicon, generate_pyinstaller, generate_build, generate_version are usually used in building standalone SQLiteBoy version
    • enable_extended and enable_extended_allow_all are provided in order to easily enable extended features and allow connection from all hosts (without using the web-based user interface). This way, SQLiteBoy can be installed on a remote server, connected to a database, and managed/accessed from another hosts. Before v1.60, these steps must be done manually (because only local connection is allowed by default; probably using text-based web browser on server without GUI).
    • These commands are not intended for regular use. In order to run SQLiteBoy, please read HOW TO RUN.
  • Must be valid JSON syntax (json.org)
  • String (including keys below) must be double-quoted (between " and ")
  • No trailling comma in dict or list
  • Python dict (keys are case-sensitive)
  • Additional/custom links at login page can be set at System configuration
  • Keys must be non-empty strings, values must be lists (or empty lists), and targets/labels must be non-empty strings. Please note that strict checking is performed on link code. If there is an error, no link will be available.
  • Keys:
Key Description Type Example
login.main shown on login page at links section

list of list of two members

[target,label]

[["http://sqliteboy.com", "sqliteboy"]]
login.extra shown on login page after login form

list of list of two members

[target,label]

[["http://sqliteboy.com", "sqliteboy"]]
  • Example:
{
  "login.main": [["http://sqliteboy.com", "sqliteboy"]],
  "login.extra": [["http://sqliteboy.com", "sqliteboy"]]

    • Main title:

      [<home translation>] [<database name>] title
      or
      [<home translation>] [<database name>]
      
  • Default:

    • <home translation> is home
    • <login translation> is login
