About:
This package provides an ODBC (Open Database Connectivity) driver for SQLite databases, enabling standard SQL-based applications to connect to and interact with SQLite files. It translates ODBC calls into SQLite operations, making it a crucial bridge for legacy systems or applications that require a unified data access layer. Its main value is providing seamless integration for SQLite within enterprise environments that rely on ODBC standards.
Key Features:
  • Full ODBC 3.0 compliance
  • Supports standard SQL-92 commands
  • Enables concurrent access to SQLite databases
  • Compatible with various BI and reporting tools
Use Cases:
  • Connecting Excel or Microsoft Access to local SQLite databases for data analysis
  • Integrating SQLite data into enterprise ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) pipelines
  • Enabling legacy applications to read/write to SQLite files via standard drivers
Alternatives:
  • SQLite3 CLI – The native command-line tool is faster for direct scripting but lacks the standard connectivity required by GUI applications.
  • ODBC Driver for SQLite (by Christian Werner) – This is the specific upstream project; the Homebrew formula installs the compiled binaries and setup resources from this source.
