I discovered .mode
by running .help
:
.dump Render database content as SQL
.help List of all available commands.
.indexes List indexes in a table or database
.mode Set output mode
.quit Exit this program
.read Execute commands from a file
.schema Show table schemas.
.tables List all existing tables in the database.
The problem is that it's entirely unclear how to use it.
→ .mode
Error: accepts 1 arg(s), received 0
There should be some way to get a list of modes and what they do.
The sqlite CLI has documentation (see section 5 "Changing Output Formats") about its .mode
command, but it doesn't look at all the same. None of their modes list
, quote
, or line
are accepted.

Error: unsupported mode
