If, as previously suggested, you're using inotify or FSEvents (or
ReadDirectoryChangesExW) you can avoid polling this metadata, although I
realised that in WAL mode the if the updated DB header page might only be
stored in the write ahead log for some period of time, in which case you
definitely need to watch both.

Theoretically, one monitors the database file for its "last change" timestamp 
(you might know this as the "touch timestamp").  In practise, some operating 
systems don't notice that this has been modified until other things have 
happened (directory info has been updated, storage driver has finished session, 
etc.).  But SQlite should always see a change in the content of the file first, 
so use the PRAGMA or manually read those bytes from the header.

See also PRAGMA data_version when it comes to polling the DB, the return
value of which changes when another process modifies the DB. IIRC the
implementation of this depends on a value in the DB header page, so it may
be sufficient to only monitor the main DB file for changes.

Or on Apple platforms, FSEvents.

On any platform, you'd need to monitor both the main database and the .wal file.

And the notification would trigger soon after a transaction began making 
changes, although the changes wouldn't be visible to you until the commit, so 
you'd probably need to start polling until you see the changes, with some 
heuristic about timing out if nothing happens for a while (e.g. if the 
transaction is aborted.)

You are probably following up a posting of about 10 years ago.
Most of us do not have that message anymore, so it is not totally clear what you

Anyway, SQLite doesn't have such a mechanism by itself.

I'm a long-time lurker on this list, but until now I haven't had much to
contribute.

However... on this topic, I might finally have something to offer.

About a year ago, I was working on this very problem, and have a working
prototype of an SQLite library with a cross-process asynchronous update
notification mechanism.

When we originally encountered this problem, we tried to characterize it
as best we could and then considered a few alternative solutions
(which we numbered Option #1 through Option #5 in our documents). One of
our (formerly) internal engineering documents includes discussion of this
subject and might provide some useful context; see

http://www.innovision.com/techdocs/sqlite/PersistentDataSharingAndConcurrenc
yControl.pdf

Ultimately, we developed prototypes (i.e., enhanced SQLite libraries)
for a couple of the options (first, Option #5, and later, Option #3).

Another (formerly) internal document further expands on the requirements we
wanted to satisfy and how we went about solving (at least sufficient for a
prototype) the problem; see

http://www.innovision.com/techdocs/sqlite/SQLiteAsyncDatabaseChange.pdf

I'll warn you that the document I just referenced probably needs to be
updated to be a more accurate reflection of our latest solution to the
problem (which is now based on Option #3 rather than Option #5).

When I was working on the Option #5 prototype; I created a video demo.
If I did it again for Option #3, it probably wouldn't be much different.
The demo shows the mechanism working both within a single process as

sqlite3.exe command line utility, each linked against the enhanced
SQLite library). (The Lua aspect is irrelevant here; LuaSQL just happened
to be another thing we wanted to evaluate in this prototype).

True, However it does correctly deal with things like a process going away

That's just polling, really. SQLite's busy handler tries to access the 
database, sleeps a little, tries again, sleeps again, and so on. It's not

  Depends on the type of RPC.  SQLite makes a pretty good message queue
  system, since clients can read/write/disconnect/reconnect at will,
  and the transaction system makes it all safe and sound.


  If polling produces acceptable speed, where one applicatoin can react

One way I have done it in the past is to have a second database that is
exclusively locked by whoever does writing.  Waiters then also try a begin
immediate with infinite timeouts.  After the writer updates the main
database they release the lock on the second one which wakes up all the
waiters.  Rinse and repeat.

This is an extremely crappy signaling mechanism, but does work if the use
case is fully understood.  My reason for using it was because it works on
all platforms and saved me from having to come up with and test various
platform specific mechanisms.

The creator of SQLite actually gave a talk about using an SQLite
database as a means for IPC (it was available on youtube, maybe you
can find it).  If you want an 'sqlit-ish' way, why not use that trick?

One advantage of using SQLite is that debugging / backtracing becomes
easier.  Since your messages are passed through a database, you can
easily backtrace IPC calls (by perhaps setting a 'complete' field
instead of deleting a IPC message) and you can inject IPC messages
easily by using the SQLite CLI.

[sqlite] notify all processes of database modification

2010-06-15 Thread arno
Hi,
I have two processes connecting to a database. Both can modify database. When
some process modify database, I want the other to be notified (so, it can
reload data).
Currently, I use unix sockets, so a process can notify all listener process
that something has changed. But I wonder if there's a better way to achieve
that.
I've tried to a create a custom function (with sqlite3_create_function), and
use triggers. But unfortunately, my trigger was executed for the modifying
process.
So, is there a sqlitish way to have process notifications, or should I stick
to using unix sockets to tell other processes something has changed in the
database.
I'm using C++ language (C api for sqlite)
