I have never used Sqlite, and my Python experience is mostly industrial, and outdated. (Like, what are bindings?) Google found no GnuCash programming tutorials, though it did find some Piecash ones. There's https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/SQL-Requests_For_Direct_Database_Access for SQL. It's not specifically about SQLite3 but you can read their docs for using the command-line tool. Bindings are wrapper functions, in our case created by SWIG, that translate between e.g. Python and the C/C++ in which the GnuCash engine is written. There's some information in https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Python_Bindings and a brief mention in https://www.gnucash.org/docs/v4/C/gnucash-guide/ch_python_bindings.html. There are some examples in https://github.com/Gnucash/gnucash/tree/maint/bindings/python/example_scripts.
