## A higher level `SQLite`:idx: database wrapper. This interface
## is implemented for other databases too.
##
## Basic usage
## ===========
##
## The basic flow of using this module is:
##
## 1. Open database connection
## 2. Execute SQL query
## 3. Close database connection
##
## Parameter substitution
## ----------------------
##
## All ``db_*`` modules support the same form of parameter substitution.
## That is, using the ``?`` (question mark) to signify the place where a
## value should be placed. For example:
##
## .. code-block:: Nim
##
##    sql"INSERT INTO my_table (colA, colB, colC) VALUES (?, ?, ?)"
##
## Opening a connection to a database
## ----------------------------------
##
## .. code-block:: Nim
##
##    import db_sqlite
##
##    # user, password, database name can be empty.
##    # These params are not used on db_sqlite module.
##    let db = open("mytest.db", "", "", "")
##    db.close()
##
## Creating a table
## ----------------
##
## .. code-block:: Nim
##
##    db.exec(sql"DROP TABLE IF EXISTS my_table")
##    db.exec(sql"""CREATE TABLE my_table (
##                     id   INTEGER,
##                     name VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL
##                  )""")
##
## Inserting data
## --------------
##
## .. code-block:: Nim
##
##    db.exec(sql"INSERT INTO my_table (id, name) VALUES (0, ?)",
##            "Jack")
##
## Larger example
## --------------
##
## .. code-block:: nim
##
##    import db_sqlite, math
##
##    let db = open("mytest.db", "", "", "")
##
##    db.exec(sql"DROP TABLE IF EXISTS my_table")
##    db.exec(sql"""CREATE TABLE my_table (
##                     id    INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
##                     name  VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
##                     i     INT(11),
##                     f     DECIMAL(18, 10)
##                  )""")
##
##    db.exec(sql"BEGIN")
##    for i in 1..1000:
##      db.exec(sql"INSERT INTO my_table (name, i, f) VALUES (?, ?, ?)",
##              "Item#" & $i, i, sqrt(i.float))
##    db.exec(sql"COMMIT")
##
##    for x in db.fastRows(sql"SELECT * FROM my_table"):
##      echo x
##
##    let id = db.tryInsertId(sql"""INSERT INTO my_table (name, i, f)
##                                  VALUES (?, ?, ?)""",
##                            "Item#1001", 1001, sqrt(1001.0))
##    echo "Inserted item: ", db.getValue(sql"SELECT name FROM my_table WHERE id=?", id)
##
##    db.close()
