Subject: Python: enable loadable SQLite extension support
Date: Fri, 28 Oct 2022 17:45:26 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <d30b13fee7e571fc176543df0bddb043c210f356.camel@gmail.com> (raw)

Hi,

Can I please request that the Python 3 package be compiled with "
--enable-loadable-sqlite-extensions"?

I'm trying to use a Python 3 app (datasette) to load an SQLite
extension but it fails with:

AttributeError: 'sqlite3.Connection' object has no attribute
'enable_load_extension'

The Python docs say that --enable-loadable-sqlite-extensions should be
passed at build to enable this (new for 3.6) . See:

 * 
https://docs.python.org/3/library/sqlite3.html#sqlite3.Connection.enable_load_extension
 * 
https://docs.python.org/3/using/configure.html#cmdoption-enable-loadable-sqlite-extensions


The shipped sqlite3 supports extensions (".load ext.so" works).
Python's sysconfig module shows that Python 3.9.10 on Cygwin does not
have this feature enabled:

>>> import sysconfig
>>> list(filter(lambda x: 'enable' in x,
sysconfig.get_config_vars('CONFIG_ARGS')[0].split(' ')))
["'--enable-shared'", "'--enable-ipv6'"]


For comparison, Python 3.8.10 on Ubuntu 20.04:

>>> list(filter(lambda x: 'enable' in x,
sysconfig.get_config_vars('CONFIG_ARGS')[0].split(' ')))
["'--enable-shared'", "'--enable-ipv6'", "'--enable-loadable-sqlite-
extensions'"]


Equivalent issue from NixOS for reference:

Thanks,

Martin.
