SQLite

Open data source properties. You can open data source properties by using one of the following options:

• Navigate to File | Data Sources.

• Press Control+Alt+Shift+S.

• In the Database Explorer ( View | Tool Windows | Database Explorer), click the Data Source Properties icon .

On the Data Sources tab in the Data Sources and Drivers dialog, click the Add icon () and select SQLite.

Check if there is a Download missing driver files link at the bottom of the data source settings area. As you click this link, DataGrip downloads drivers that are required to interact with a database. The IDE does not include bundled drivers in order to have a smaller size of the installation package and to keep driver versions up-to-date for each IDE version.

You can specify your drivers for the data source if you do not want to download the provided drivers. For more information about creating a database connection with your driver, see Add a user driver to an existing connection.

To connect to an existing SQLite database, specify a file path to the database file in the File field.

To create a new SQLite database, change the default name of the database if needed identifier.sqlite and click OK.

Also, to create a database, you can drag an SQLite DB file to the Database Explorer.

To ensure that the connection to the data source is successful, click the Test Connection link.

(Optional) If you are connecting to a data source that contains a lot of databases and schemas, in the Schemas tab, select the schemas that you need to work with.

Click OK to create the data source.

Find your new data source in Database Explorer.

• To write and run queries, open the default query console by clicking the data source and pressing F4.

• To view and edit data, use Data editor.
