What is SQLITE file?
The SQLITE (SQLite Database File) file type is a disk-based database created with the .SQLITE file extension and developed by SQLite. This file type is designed as a compact, self-contained, serverless SQL database that requires no separate configuration and stores records in multiple tables. The SQLITE database is read-only by default although it can be opened and modified in many of the third-party applications designed for this type of data. [ ⏩ ] SQLITE file extension
What is CSV file?
The .CSV file extension is a plain-text Comma Separated Values file. It is used to store tabular data in which the rows represent database records and the columns represent fields within each record. This format is popular when working with spreadsheet programs like Microsoft Excel, but can also be read and accessed by a variety of other programs, such as Apache OpenOffice Calc. CSV files have become a de-facto standard for sharing structured information between different programs. [ ⏩ ] CSV file extension
Software, that you can use to convert
How to convert the file from SQLITE to CSV?
To successfully convert the SQLITE file to CSV, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.SQLITE). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case CSV (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than CSV).
What is a file conversion?
A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. SQLITE to CSV. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.
Program for converting SQLITE files to CSV files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension CSV, while before this step we had the SQLITE file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new CSV file, or not.
