Perl DBI 数据库密码

Question

So I am creating a file on a server with Perl DBI. This file is created with:

my $dbFile = DBI->connect("DBI:SQLite:dbname=folder/databaseName.db", "", "desiredPassword", optionArray);

My driver is obviously SQLite and the file extension is .db . Later on I want to use this file in Visual Studio with the following connection string (everything will be on a local file so NO data stream to any databank):

Data Source=myfile.sqlite;Password=desiredPassword;Version=3 

Basically all I do is to download the .db file from the server into a local SQLite file, but that works perfectly fine.

My problem is that I have no idea how to set a password for the database I create with the connection string in the code example. I assumed that it should just be settable in the DBI connect function that creates the file. However this doesn't work at all. So how can I set a password for my .db file with Perl DBI?

Answer 1

Because there is no implementation of databank encryption in perl and apparently different libraries have their own implementation (there does not seem to be a standard for that) the encryption has to be done via the library which will later decrypt the password. My solution was to write a script in Visual Studio which will acquire all data from a database (or just a database file) and stores it in a sql file which will then be encrypted with the desired password.

So while there are some independet solutions for several libaries, there in no solution for perl DBI
