expo-sqlite 让你的应用可以访问一个可通过 SQLite API 查询的数据库。该数据库会在应用重启后持续保留。

在 Apple TV 上,根据 Apple 平台指南,底层数据库文件位于 caches 目录,而不是 application documents 目录。

安装

Terminal
npx expo install expo-sqlite

If you are installing this in an existing React Native app, make sure to install expo in your project.

在 app config 中配置

如果你的项目使用了配置插件(Continuous Native Generation (CNG)),你可以使用 expo-sqlite 内置的 config plugin 来进行高级配置。该插件允许你配置一些无法在运行时设置的属性,这些属性需要构建新的应用二进制文件后才会生效。如果你的应用使用 CNG,那么你需要手动配置该库。

Example app.json with config plugin

app.json
{ "expo": { "plugins": [ [ "expo-sqlite", { "enableFTS": true, "useSQLCipher": true, "android": { // 覆盖 Android 的共享配置 "enableFTS": false, "useSQLCipher": false }, "ios": { // 你也可以覆盖 iOS 的共享配置 "customBuildFlags": ["-DSQLITE_ENABLE_DBSTAT_VTAB=1 -DSQLITE_ENABLE_SNAPSHOT=1"] } } ] ] } }

Configurable properties

NameDefaultDescription
customBuildFlags-

withSQLiteVecExtensionfalse

sqlite-vec 扩展包含到 bundledExtensions 中。

Web 设置

Web 支持处于 alpha 阶段,可能不稳定。如果你遇到任何问题,请 在 GitHub 上创建 issue

要在 web 上使用 expo-sqlite,你需要配置 Metro bundler 以支持 wasm 文件,并添加 HTTP 头以允许使用 SharedArrayBuffer

将以下配置添加到你的 metro.config.js 中。如果你还没有 metro.config.js,可以运行 npx expo customize metro.config.js了解更多

如果你将应用部署到 web 托管服务,你还需要在 web 服务器上添加 Cross-Origin-Embedder-PolicyCross-Origin-Opener-Policy 头。了解 COEPCOOP 头以及 SharedArrayBuffer 的更多信息

如果你将应用部署到 EAS Hosting,可以在 app config 中配置这些头:

app.json
{ "expo": { "plugins": [ [ "expo-router", { "headers": { "Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy": "credentialless", "Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy": "same-origin" } } ] ] } }

用法

expo-sqlite 导入模块。

Import the module from expo-sqlite
import * as SQLite from 'expo-sqlite';

基本 CRUD 操作

Basic CRUD operations
const db = await SQLite.openDatabaseAsync('databaseName'); // `execAsync()` 适用于批量查询,当你希望一次性执行它们时使用。 // 注意,`execAsync()` 不会转义参数,可能导致 SQL 注入。 await db.execAsync(` PRAGMA journal_mode = WAL; CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS test (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL, value TEXT NOT NULL, intValue INTEGER); INSERT INTO test (value, intValue) VALUES ('test1', 123); INSERT INTO test (value, intValue) VALUES ('test2', 456); INSERT INTO test (value, intValue) VALUES ('test3', 789); `); // `runAsync()` 适用于你想执行一些写操作时使用。 const result = await db.runAsync('INSERT INTO test (value, intValue) VALUES (?, ?)', 'aaa', 100); console.log(result.lastInsertRowId, result.changes); await db.runAsync('UPDATE test SET intValue = ? WHERE value = ?', 999, 'aaa'); // 从可变参数中绑定未命名参数 await db.runAsync('UPDATE test SET intValue = ? WHERE value = ?', [999, 'aaa']); // 从数组中绑定未命名参数 await db.runAsync('DELETE FROM test WHERE value = $value', { $value: 'aaa' }); // 从对象中绑定命名参数 // `getFirstAsync()` 适用于你想从数据库中获取单行结果时使用。 const firstRow = await db.getFirstAsync('SELECT * FROM test'); console.log(firstRow.id, firstRow.value, firstRow.intValue); // `getAllAsync()` 适用于你想将所有结果作为对象数组获取时使用。 const allRows = await db.getAllAsync('SELECT * FROM test'); for (const row of allRows) { console.log(row.id, row.value, row.intValue); } // `getEachAsync()` 适用于你想迭代 SQLite 查询游标时使用。 for await (const row of db.getEachAsync('SELECT * FROM test')) { console.log(row.id, row.value, row.intValue); }

Prepared statements

Prepared statements 允许你只编译一次 SQL 查询,然后用不同参数多次执行。它们会自动转义输入参数,以防止 SQL 注入攻击,建议用于包含用户输入的查询。你可以通过在数据库实例上调用 prepareAsync()prepareSync() 方法来获取 prepared statement。prepared statement 可以通过调用 executeAsync()executeSync() 方法来完成 CRUD 操作。

Note: 记得在使用完 statement 后调用 finalizeAsync()finalizeSync() 方法来释放 prepared statement。建议使用 try-finally 块来确保 prepared statement 被 finalize。

Prepared statements
const statement = await db.prepareAsync( 'INSERT INTO test (value, intValue) VALUES ($value, $intValue)' ); try { let result = await statement.executeAsync({ $value: 'bbb', $intValue: 101 }); console.log('bbb and 101:', result.lastInsertRowId, result.changes); result = await statement.executeAsync({ $value: 'ccc', $intValue: 102 }); console.log('ccc and 102:', result.lastInsertRowId, result.changes); result = await statement.executeAsync({ $value: 'ddd', $intValue: 103 }); console.log('ddd and 103:', result.lastInsertRowId, result.changes); } finally { await statement.finalizeAsync(); } const statement2 = await db.prepareAsync('SELECT * FROM test WHERE intValue >= $intValue'); try { const result = await statement2.executeAsync<{ value: string; intValue: number }>({ $intValue: 100, }); // `getFirstAsync()` 适用于你想从数据库中获取单行结果时使用。 const firstRow = await result.getFirstAsync(); console.log(firstRow.id, firstRow.value, firstRow.intValue); // 将 SQLite 查询游标重置到开头,以便下次调用 `getAllAsync()`。 await result.resetAsync(); // `getAllAsync()` 适用于你想将所有结果作为对象数组获取时使用。 const allRows = await result.getAllAsync(); for (const row of allRows) { console.log(row.value, row.intValue); } // 将 SQLite 查询游标重置到开头,以便下次 `for-await-of` 循环使用。 await result.resetAsync(); // 结果对象本身也是一个 async iterable。你可以在 `for-await-of` 循环中使用它来迭代 SQLite 查询游标。 for await (const row of result) { console.log(row.value, row.intValue); } } finally { await statement2.finalizeAsync(); }

Tagged template literals API

为了方便并提升开发体验,expo-sqlite 通过 db.sql 属性提供了受 Bun 启发的 tagged template literals API。该 API 会自动转义参数以防止 SQL 注入攻击,并根据查询类型提供自动类型推断。

Tagged template literals API
interface User { id: number; name: string; age: number; } const db = await SQLite.openDatabaseAsync('mydb.db'); const sql = db.sql; const age = 21; const users = await sql<User>`SELECT * FROM users WHERE age > ${age}`; // 类型:User[] console.log(users[0].name); // 可变查询如 INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE 返回 SQLiteRunResult 元数据 const result = (await sql`INSERT INTO users (name, age) VALUES (${'Alice'}, ${30})`) as SQLite.SQLiteRunResult; console.log(result.lastInsertRowId, result.changes); // 仅获取第一行 const user = await sql<User>`SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = ${1}`.first(); if (user) { console.log(user.name); } // 遍历结果 for await (const user of sql<User>`SELECT * FROM users`.each()) { console.log(user.name); } // 同步 API const syncUsers = sql<User>`SELECT * FROM users WHERE age > ${21}`.allSync(); const syncUser = sql<User>`SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = ${1}`.firstSync();

useSQLiteContext() hook

useSQLiteContext() hook
import { SQLiteProvider, useSQLiteContext, type SQLiteDatabase } from 'expo-sqlite'; import { useEffect, useState } from 'react'; import { View, Text, StyleSheet } from 'react-native'; export default function App() { return ( <View style={styles.container}> <SQLiteProvider databaseName="test.db" onInit={migrateDbIfNeeded}> <Header /> <Content /> </SQLiteProvider> </View> ); } export function Header() { const db = useSQLiteContext(); const [version, setVersion] = useState(''); useEffect(() => { async function setup() { const result = await db.getFirstAsync<{ 'sqlite_version()': string }>( 'SELECT sqlite_version()' ); setVersion(result['sqlite_version()']); } setup(); }, []); return ( <View style={styles.headerContainer}> <Text style={styles.headerText}>SQLite 版本:{version}</Text> </View> ); } interface Todo { value: string; intValue: number; } export function Content() { const db = useSQLiteContext(); const [todos, setTodos] = useState<Todo[]>([]); useEffect(() => { async function setup() { const result = await db.getAllAsync<Todo>('SELECT * FROM todos'); setTodos(result); } setup(); }, []); return ( <View style={styles.contentContainer}> {todos.map((todo, index) => ( <View style={styles.todoItemContainer} key={index}> <Text>{`${todo.intValue} - ${todo.value}`}</Text> </View> ))} </View> ); } async function migrateDbIfNeeded(db: SQLiteDatabase) { const DATABASE_VERSION = 1; let { user_version: currentDbVersion } = await db.getFirstAsync<{ user_version: number }>( 'PRAGMA user_version' ); if (currentDbVersion >= DATABASE_VERSION) { return; } if (currentDbVersion === 0) { await db.execAsync(` PRAGMA journal_mode = 'wal'; CREATE TABLE todos (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL, value TEXT NOT NULL, intValue INTEGER); `); await db.runAsync('INSERT INTO todos (value, intValue) VALUES (?, ?)', 'hello', 1); await db.runAsync('INSERT INTO todos (value, intValue) VALUES (?, ?)', 'world', 2); currentDbVersion = 1; } // if (currentDbVersion === 1) { // 添加更多迁移 // } await db.execAsync(`PRAGMA user_version = ${DATABASE_VERSION}`); } const styles = StyleSheet.create({ // 你的样式... });

带有 React.SuspenseuseSQLiteContext() hook

useSQLiteContext() hook 一样,你也可以将 SQLiteProviderReact.Suspense 集成,在数据库准备好之前显示一个 fallback 组件。要启用这种集成,请向 SQLiteProvider 组件传入 useSuspense 属性。

useSQLiteContext() hook with React.Suspense
import { SQLiteProvider, useSQLiteContext } from 'expo-sqlite'; import { Suspense } from 'react'; import { View, Text, StyleSheet } from 'react-native'; export default function App() { return ( <View style={styles.container}> <Suspense fallback={<Fallback />}> <SQLiteProvider databaseName="test.db" onInit={migrateDbIfNeeded} useSuspense> <Header /> <Content /> </SQLiteProvider> </Suspense> </View> ); }

在 async transaction 中执行查询

Executing queries within an async transaction
const db = await SQLite.openDatabaseAsync('databaseName'); await db.withTransactionAsync(async () => { const result = await db.getFirstAsync('SELECT COUNT(*) FROM USERS'); console.log('Count:', result.rows[0]['COUNT(*)']); });

由于 async/await 的特性,任何在事务处于活动状态时运行的查询都会被包含在事务中。这包括传递给 withTransactionAsync() 的作用域函数之外的查询语句,这可能会让人感到意外。例如,下面的测试用例在传递给 withTransactionAsync() 的作用域函数内部和外部都运行了查询。然而,所有查询都会在实际的 SQL 事务中运行,因为第二个 UPDATE 查询在事务结束之前就执行了。

Promise.all([ // 1. 一个新的事务开始 db.withTransactionAsync(async () => { // 2. 值 "first" 被插入到 test 表中,然后我们等待 2 // 秒 await db.execAsync('INSERT INTO test (data) VALUES ("first")'); await sleep(2000); // 4. 两秒后,我们从表中读取最新数据 const row = await db.getFirstAsync<{ data: string }>('SELECT data FROM test'); // ❌ 表中的数据将会是 "second",这个断言会失败。 // 此外,这个断言还会抛出错误并回滚事务, // 包括下面的 `UPDATE` 查询,因为它是在事务中运行的。 expect(row.data).toBe('first'); }), // 3. 一秒后,test 表中的数据被更新为 "second"。 // 尽管这段代码在事务外部,但这个 `UPDATE` 查询仍会在事务中运行, // 因为在该查询执行时事务恰好处于活动状态。 sleep(1000).then(async () => db.execAsync('UPDATE test SET data = "second"')), ]);

withExclusiveTransactionAsync() 函数可以解决这个问题。只有在传递给 withExclusiveTransactionAsync() 的作用域函数内部运行的查询,才会在实际的 SQL 事务中运行。

执行 PRAGMA 查询

Executing PRAGMA queries
const db = await SQLite.openDatabaseAsync('databaseName'); await db.execAsync('PRAGMA journal_mode = WAL'); await db.execAsync('PRAGMA foreign_keys = ON');
Tip: 在创建新数据库时启用 WAL journal mode,通常可以提升性能。

导入现有数据库

要使用你已有的 .db 文件打开一个新的 SQLite 数据库,你可以使用带有 assetSourceSQLiteProvider

useSQLiteContext() with existing database
import { SQLiteProvider, useSQLiteContext } from 'expo-sqlite'; import { View, Text, StyleSheet } from 'react-native'; export default function App() { return ( <View style={styles.container}> <SQLiteProvider databaseName="test.db" assetSource={{ assetId: require('./assets/test.db') }}> <Header /> <Content /> </SQLiteProvider> </View> ); }

在应用/扩展之间共享数据库(iOS)

要在同一个 App Group 中与其他应用/扩展共享数据库,可以按照以下步骤使用共享容器:

1

在 app config 中配置 App Group:

app.json
{ "expo": { "ios": { "bundleIdentifier": "com.myapp", "entitlements": { "com.apple.security.application-groups": ["group.com.myapp"] } } } }

2

使用 expo-file-system 库中的 Paths.appleSharedContainers 获取共享容器的路径:

Using Shared Container for SQLite Database on iOS
import { SQLiteProvider, defaultDatabaseDirectory } from 'expo-sqlite'; import { Paths } from 'expo-file-system'; import { useMemo } from 'react'; import { Platform, View } from 'react-native'; export default function App() { const dbDirectory = useMemo(() => { if (Platform.OS === 'ios') { return Object.values(Paths.appleSharedContainers)?.[0]?.uri; // 或者使用 `Paths.appleSharedContainers['group.com.myapp']?.uri` 来选择特定容器 } return defaultDatabaseDirectory; }, []); return ( <View style={styles.container}> <SQLiteProvider databaseName="test.db" directory={dbDirectory}> <Header /> <Content /> </SQLiteProvider> </View> ); }

传递二进制数据

使用 Uint8Array 向数据库传递二进制数据:

Passing binary data
await db.execAsync(` DROP TABLE IF EXISTS blobs; CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS blobs (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL, data BLOB); `); const blob = new Uint8Array([0x00, 0x01, 0x02, 0x03, 0x04, 0x05]); await db.runAsync('INSERT INTO blobs (data) VALUES (?)', blob); const row = await db.getFirstAsync<{ data: Uint8Array }>('SELECT * FROM blobs'); expect(row.data).toEqual(blob);

浏览设备上的数据库

expo-sqlite 库包含一个内置的 DevTools inspector 插件,开发环境下会自动启用,无需额外设置。它允许你浏览表、查看和编辑行、运行 SQL 查询,并直接从浏览器导出数据库。要打开它,请在 Expo CLI 终端中按 shift+m 打开开发工具菜单,然后选择 Open expo-sqlite 来启动 inspector。

另外,你也可以使用 drizzle-studio-expo 开发工具插件,从 Expo CLI 直接启动 Drizzle Studio,并连接到你应用中的数据库。该插件可与任何 expo-sqlite 配置配合使用,不需要 Drizzle ORM了解如何安装和使用该插件

键值存储

expo-sqlite 库提供了 Storage,可作为 @react-native-async-storage/async-storage 库的直接替代品。这个键值存储由 SQLite 提供支持。如果你的项目已经在使用 expo-sqlite,你可以直接使用 expo-sqlite/kv-store,无需再添加其他依赖。

Storage 提供了与 @react-native-async-storage/async-storage 相同的 API:

Using the Store
// 存储 API 是默认导出,你可以将其命名为 Storage、AsyncStorage 或任何你喜欢的名称。 import Storage from 'expo-sqlite/kv-store'; await Storage.setItem('key', JSON.stringify({ entity: 'value' })); const value = await Storage.getItem('key'); const entity = JSON.parse(value); console.log(entity); // { entity: 'value' }

使用 expo-sqlite/kv-store 的一个主要好处是它额外提供了同步 API,更加方便:

Using the Store with synchronous APIs
// 存储 API 是默认导出,你可以将其命名为 Storage、AsyncStorage 或任何你喜欢的名称。 import Storage from 'expo-sqlite/kv-store'; Storage.setItemSync('key', 'value'); const value = Storage.getItemSync('key');

如果你当前在项目中使用的是 @react-native-async-storage/async-storage,切换到 expo-sqlite/kv-store 只需更改 import 语句即可:

- import AsyncStorage from '@react-native-async-storage/async-storage'; + import AsyncStorage from 'expo-sqlite/kv-store';

localStorage API

expo-sqlite/localStorage/install 模块提供了 localStorage API 的直接实现。如果你已经熟悉 Web 上的这个 API,或者你希望能够在 web 和其他平台之间共享存储代码,这会很有用。要使用它,你只需要导入 expo-sqlite/localStorage/install 模块:

Note: import 'expo-sqlite/localStorage/install'; 在 web 上不会产生任何效果,并且会被排除在生产 JS bundle 之外。

Install globalThis.localStorage
import 'expo-sqlite/localStorage/install'; globalThis.localStorage.setItem('key', 'value'); console.log(globalThis.localStorage.getItem('key')); // 'value'

安全性

SQL 注入是一类漏洞,攻击者会诱使你的应用将用户输入当作 SQL 代码执行。你必须对传递给 SQLite 的所有用户输入进行转义,以防御 SQL 注入。预处理语句是解决这个问题的有效防护手段。它们明确将 SQL 查询的逻辑与输入参数分离,并且 SQLite 在执行预处理语句时会自动转义输入。

第三方库集成

expo-sqlite 库旨在成为一个稳定的 SQLite 基础。它支持与第三方库进行更广泛的集成,以实现更高级的上层功能。以下是一些可与 expo-sqlite 一起使用的库。

Drizzle ORM

Drizzle 是一个 "没有头脑的、带有头部的 TypeScript ORM"。它可运行于 Node.js、Bun、Deno 和 React Native。它还有一个名为 drizzle-kit 的配套 CLI,用于生成 SQL 迁移。

查看 Drizzle ORM 文档expo-sqlite 集成指南 了解更多详情。

Knex.js

Knex.js 是一个 SQL 查询构建器,号称 "灵活、可移植,而且使用起来很有趣!"

查看 expo-sqlite 集成指南 了解更多详情。

SQLCipher

注意: Expo Go 不支持 SQLCipher。

SQLCipher 是 SQLite 的一个分支,为数据库添加了加密和身份验证功能。expo-sqlite 库支持 Android、iOS 和 macOS 上的 SQLCipher。要使用 SQLCipher,你需要像 app 配置中的配置 部分所示,在你的 app.json 中添加 useSQLCipher 配置,然后运行 npx expo prebuild

在你打开数据库后,需要使用 PRAGMA key = 'password' 语句为数据库设置密码。

Add a password to the database
const db = await SQLite.openDatabaseAsync('databaseName'); await db.execAsync(`PRAGMA key = 'password'`);

API

常用 API 速查表

下表总结了 SQLiteDatabaseSQLiteStatement 类的常用 API:

SQLiteDatabase 方法SQLiteStatement 方法描述使用场景
runAsync()executeAsync()执行 SQL 查询,返回所做更改的信息。适合执行 SQL 写入操作,例如 INSERTUPDATEDELETE
getFirstAsync()executeAsync() + getFirstAsync()从查询结果中获取第一行。适合从数据库中获取单行。例如:getFirstAsync('SELECT * FROM Users WHERE id = ?', userId)
getAllAsync()executeAsync() + getFirstAsync()一次获取所有查询结果。最适合结果集较小的场景,例如带有 LIMIT 子句的查询,如 SELECT * FROM Table LIMIT 100,并且你打算一次性获取全部结果。
getEachAsync()executeAsync() + for-await-of async iterator提供用于遍历结果集的迭代器。此方法每次从数据库获取一行,与 getAllAsync() 相比,可能会减少内存使用。推荐用于逐步处理大型结果集,例如无限滚动的实现。
