Mac SQLite editor [closed]

I am aware of CocoaMySQL but I have not seen a Mac GUI for SQLite, is there one?

My Google search didn't turn up any Mac related GUI's which is why I'm asking here rather than Google.


Base is younger than your question, and definitely feels like a 1.0, but the user experience is miles better than the experience of using any of the "cross-platform" apps on a Mac.

I recommend you buy a license before the developer realizes he is charging too little for it.

UPDATE: Since December 2008, Base is now up to version 2.1, it has become an excellent product. I don't remember what it used to cost, but I paid for the 1.x to 2.x upgrade. Still highly recommended.

ANOTHER UPDATE: Base is available on the Mac App Store, you may find it useful to read the reviews there.


SQLite Manager for FireFox


I use Liya from the Mac App Store, it's free, does the job, and the project is maintained (a month or so between updates as of Jan 2013).

I also test a lot on the device. You can access the SQLITE database on the device by:

  1. Add Application supports iTunes file sharing to the info.plist and setting it to YES
  2. Running the app on a device
  3. Open iTunes
  4. Select the device
  5. Select the "Apps" tab
  6. Scroll down to the "File Sharing" section and select the app
  7. The .sqlite file should appear in the right hand pane - select it and "Save to..."
  8. Once it's saved open it up in your favourite SQLITE editor

You can also edit it and copy it back.

EDIT: You can also do this through the Organizer in XCode

  1. Open the Organizer in XCode (Window > Organiser)
  2. Select the "Devices" tab
  3. Expand the device on the left that you want to download/upload data to
  4. Select Applications
  5. Select an Application in the main panel
  6. The panel at the bottom (Data files in Sandbox) will update with all the files within that application
  7. Choose Download and save it somewhere
  8. Find the file in Finder
  9. Right click and select "Show Package Contents"

You can now view, edit, and re-upload the package to your debug device. This can be really handy for keeping snapshots of different states to try out on other devices.

  • Inline data filtering.
  • The ability to load sqlite extensions.
  • SQLite 2 Compatibility.

MesaSQLite is the best I've found so far.
