README.md

This is a Rust project to exercise writing to a SQLite database using a SQLite client while concurrently reading from the same database using either a SQLite client or a DuckDB client in a variet of configurations (e.g., with and without a write-ahead log (WAL)).

This project uses Rusqlite for the SQLite client. It uses duckdb-rs for the DuckDB client, which relies on the sqlite_scanner DuckDB extension.

You can control how long each test runs by editing the row count function:

    fn get_row_count() -> i64 {
        10000
    }

You can control the amount of concurrency by editing how long each thread sleeps between iterations:

    fn get_sleep_duration() -> Duration {
        Duration::from_millis(1)
    }

Run each test individually. For example:

cargo test test_sqlite_writer_sqlite_reader_with_wal -- --nocapture

To rerun a test, delete the corresponding files in the db directory before running the test:

rm db/test_sqlite_writer_sqlite_reader_with_wal*
cargo test test_sqlite_writer_sqlite_reader_with_wal -- --nocapture

To run all the tests:

make
