CGOless using modernc.org/sqlite

Anyone know if there are any blockers to use modernc.org/sqlite ?

https://pkg.go.dev/modernc.org/sqlite@v1.17.3

Maybe it does not have something that Litestream needs ?

I read on bench its slower but quite a significant factor, depending on your use case.

https://pkg.go.dev/modernc.org/sqlite?tab=importedby shows that its getting used and supported.

I searches the issues and discussions but nothing really about this.

I did get it going a long time ago in https://github.com/danp/litestream/tree/modernc-sqlite. Not sure how involved it would be to update but it should be easier/safer to do the necessary PRAGMAs on all connections since modernc.org/sqlite has better support for that now.

Thanks @danp

i would still be interested in pursuing this. The only downside is the perf ; I saw benchmarks that indicated a significant perf hit with the CGOless SQLite.

Would appreciate any comments on this if anyone has any thoughts on this

I'm not concerned about the performance. For the application I'm working on, it would just be about the building of assets for reproducibility. Having CGO-less work means less tools to contain there.
