Convert SQLITE3 to JSON

What is SQLITE3 file?

The SQLITE3 file format is an open source, lightweight database file system used to store structured data. It operates independently from other relational database management systems (RDBMS) such as MySQL and PostgreSQL and is written in the C programming language. The file contains data organized into tables, columns, fields, and indexes that can be manipulated using SQL queries. [ ⏩ ] SQLITE3 file extension

What is JSON file?

JSON (.json) is a file format widely used for transferring data that is human-readable and easy to parse. This means that it can be easily integrated with many programming languages, such as JavaScript, Java, C#, Python, and Ruby. JSON files are composed of two parts: one data field in the form of arrays or objects, and a metadata field comprised of text and numbers. This format provides an easy way to share data across different applications, such as MySQL, Microsoft Access, and PostgreSQL. [ ⏩ ] JSON file extension

How to convert the file from SQLITE3 to JSON?

To successfully convert the SQLITE3 file to JSON, 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.SQLITE3). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case JSON (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 JSON).

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. SQLITE3 to JSON. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.

Program for converting SQLITE3 files to JSON 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 JSON, while before this step we had the SQLITE3 file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new JSON file, or not.
