sqlite3 cannot be bundle in windows rails app
If you are encountering issues bundling the sqlite3
gem in a Windows Rails application, it might be due to compatibility issues with the gem and the Windows environment. By default, the sqlite3
gem relies on the sqlite3
C library, which might not be compatible with the Windows platform.
To address this issue, you can use the sqlite3-adapter
gem instead, which provides a pure Ruby implementation of the SQLite adapter for Rails. This gem is compatible with both Windows and other platforms.
To use the sqlite3-adapter
gem, follow these steps:
Open your Gemfile and replace the line that includes
sqlite3
with the following line:rubygem 'sqlite3-adapter'
Save the Gemfile and run the following command in your project directory to update the gems:
bashbundle install
Next, update your database configuration in
config/database.yml
to use thesqlite3-adapter
:yamldevelopment:
adapter: sqlite3
database: db/development.sqlite3
pool: 5
timeout: 5000
Run the database setup tasks to create the SQLite database file:
bashrails db:create
Now, your Rails application should use the sqlite3-adapter
gem, and you should be able to bundle the gem on Windows without any issues.
Keep in mind that the sqlite3-adapter
gem is a pure Ruby implementation of the SQLite adapter, which might not be as performant as the C-based sqlite3
gem. If you need better performance, you might consider using a different database adapter that is well-supported on Windows, such as MySQL or PostgreSQL.
