could put on my own shelf overall. | 663.62 | 2.8 |
So we'll look at this database. | 666.42 | 2.13 |
But we'll need a few
tools in our toolkit, | 668.55 | 2.03 |
metaphorically, to actually
interact with this database. | 670.58 | 3.07 |
And one of them is going
to be Visual Studio Code. | 673.65 | 3.86 |
Visual Studio code is an IDE, integrated
development environment, to write code | 677.51 | 4.95 |
and to edit files with. | 682.46 | 1.56 |
It's also often called VS Code. | 684.02 | 3.35 |
Now, in VS Code, we'll also be able to
use SQLite, this database management | 687.37 | 5.33 |
system, or a DBMS for short, to
actually interact with that database. | 692.7 | 4.9 |
So we'll be using these
two tools combined | 697.6 | 2.18 |
to work with the database of longlisted
books for the International Booker | 699.78 | 4.32 |
Prize. | 704.1 | 1.42 |
And although we'll be using it here,
SQLite is not just used in this course. | 705.52 | 4.02 |
It's used in a variety of applications. | 709.54 | 2.4 |
You could think too
of phone applications, | 711.94 | 2.16 |
where SQLite is often used on those
devices have much lower memory. | 714.1 | 4.44 |
You could think too of it being
used on desktop applications | 718.54 | 3.6 |
to simplify the process
of storing data there too. | 722.14 | 3.18 |
You could even think of
it being used on websites | 725.32 | 2.67 |
to help store information that user
submits via a form, for example. | 727.99 | 4.9 |
So we'll jump into using
SQLite, but keep in mind | 732.89 | 2.87 |
that not just in this
course you'll use it, | 735.76 | 2.58 |
but also, it's used in a variety
of applications here too. | 738.34 | 4.84 |
So why don't we just jump right into
things and start using our environment | 743.18 | 4.35 |
and start using SQLite? | 747.53 | 1.32 |
So I'll go over here to my computer
and will open up, let's say, VS Code. | 748.85 | 5.64 |
We're here. | 754.49 | 0.84 |
You can see I have my
terminal environment. | 755.33 | 2.4 |
And if you're familiar,
you can type things like ls | 757.73 | 2.46 |
to see the files that are
in your current folder. | 760.19 | 2.92 |
So I'll type ls right here. | 763.11 | 1.7 |
And I'll see this database
called longlist.db. | 764.81 | 3.99 |
Again, working with books that
have been longlisted or considered | 768.8 | 3.57 |
for the International Booker Prize. | 772.37 | 2.55 |
So if I want to open up this
file, I can use this command. | 774.92 | 5.46 |
Then this command is going
to be called SQLite 3. | 780.38 | 4.53 |
Or I can take some file that I
have, like longlist.db, and open | 784.91 | 4.68 |
it using this program called SQLite 3. | 789.59 | 3.09 |
Well, it's called SQLite 3 because
this is the third version of the SQLite | 792.68 | 4.02 |
software. | 796.7 | 1.17 |
So let's try this in our terminal. | 797.87 | 2.49 |
I'll go back over here, and
I'll say sqlite3 longlist.db. | 800.36 | 6.75 |
And now, I'll hit Enter. | 807.11 | 2.07 |
And notice how my
terminal prompt changes. | 809.18 | 2.83 |
It's no longer dollar sign. | 812.01 | 1.46 |
It now says sqlite in front. | 813.47 | 2.49 |
This means I'm inside of
my SQLite environment. | 815.96 | 3.88 |
So to clear things up, let
me just clear my terminal. | 819.84 | 3.06 |
I can use Control-L for this. | 822.9 | 1.88 |
And now I have just that prompt up top. | 824.78 | 3.27 |
And now a question I want to
answer in this case first is, what | 828.05 | 3.99 |
data do I actually have in my database? | 832.04 | 3.48 |
What data is actually here for me to
look at and to ask questions about? | 835.52 | 5.13 |
Now, for this question, I
can use my very first SQL | 840.65 | 3.87 |
keyword, which will be called SELECT. | 844.52 | 2.58 |
So SELECT is a way for me to select some
rows in a table inside of my database. | 847.1 | 6.27 |
Using SELECT, I can
get back certain rows | 853.37 | 2.52 |
or, in this case, perhaps all of them
just to get a taste of what's inside. | 855.89 | 4.12 |
So let's try using SELECT on
this database to understand | 860.01 | 3.2 |
what rows we have in our table here. | 863.21 | 3.34 |
Let me go back to my computer
and to my SQLite environment. | 866.55 | 3.89 |
And I will try this
very first SQL keyword. | 870.44 | 3.48 |
I'll say SELECT. | 873.92 | 1.77 |
And I can use this star operator
here to say select everything. | 875.69 | 4.29 |
I want every row and every
column from this table. | 879.98 | 5.07 |
Now, it's not enough for me to simply
say select star and end my query. | 885.05 | 4.89 |
I had to tell SQL which table
do I want to select rows from. | 889.94 | 4.2 |
In this case, I know I
table was called longlist. | 894.14 | 3.12 |
So I'll say SELECT star from
"longlist," quote, unquote. | 897.26 | 5.25 |
And to end my query, I'll say Semicolon. | 902.51 | 3.93 |
And then finally, I can hit Enter. | 906.44 | 2.79 |
And notice how I get a lot of data back. | 909.23 | 2.46 |
This is a lot of data all at once. | 911.69 | 1.595 |
But it's because my terminal
is a little bit small, | 913.285 | 2.125 |
there's a lot of rows and columns here. | 915.41 | 1.84 |
So I could probably simplify
this just a little bit. | 917.25 | 3.17 |
And instead of saying SELECT star, I
could also select a particular column | 920.42 | 4.32 |
from my table. | 924.74 | 1.65 |
I could say, for instance,
SELECT, let's say, | 926.39 | 2.97 |
just the title column from my
database for my table like this. | 929.36 | 5.74 |
I just know already that there
is a column called title. | 935.1 | 4.07 |
So now, I'll try this instead-- not
select star, but select title instead. | 939.17 | 4.2 |
I'll hit Enter. | 943.37 | 1.02 |
And now, this looks a little bit better. | 944.39 | 2.25 |
I can see the titles inside of
this table from top to bottom. | 946.64 | 7.33 |
Now, the neat thing here is I can
select more than one column too. | 953.97 | 4.215 |
Let's say I don't want just the title-- | 958.185 | 1.625 |
I want titles and authors in my search. | 959.81 | 2.55 |
Well, I could do that as well. | 962.36 | 1.9 |
Let me try this. | 964.26 | 0.89 |
SELECT not just "title,"
quote, unquote, but then I'll | 965.15 | 3.87 |
say comma and some new column to select. | 969.02 | 3.72 |
I'll select also the
authors from this table. | 972.74 | 3.96 |
And I'll select them from
the longlist table like this. | 976.7 | 3.81 |
Now I'll hit Semicolon to end my query. | 980.51 | 2.34 |
Hit Enter. | 982.85 | 1.11 |
And now I'll see a
variety of columns here, | 983.96 | 3.3 |
in particular the title
and the author column. | 987.26 | 4.19 |
Now, this is going to be like
all of my columns so far. | 991.45 | 2.733 |
