Different Database Backends: MySQL and SQLite (to start with)

Post by dirk_salewski »

A really nifty feature imho would be the possibility to use SQLite instead of a MySQL database. While it would be a slight performance hit, for many sites in the sub-500-pages-category it would remove the need for a database installation (which You have to pay for normally).

The installer could default to mysql and revert to SQLite in absence of a "real" database (like the musicplayer "amarok" does for its database of local music).

Don't know how difficult it would be to implement that, though.

Greetings,

Please look at this tread - Piratos has realized full sqlite support based on CMSms 0.13b4 with some pdo drivers.
