class SqlLitePragmas attempts to do -
1. given a valid Sqlite database filespec
a. return a OrderedDict of all the PRAGMA settings for the database, with the following execptions
The PRAGM's listed below, only return a message. The message is being generated by me, not Sqlite. I have tried to get i right. But please dont use blindly. As i say above, i am a newbie. i still try to be correct.
a. If query on the PRAGMA, will result in code being executed on the database
b. If the PRAGMA requires a parameter to execute. This is suppose to be a generic query and easy to use.
c. If the PRAGMA is deprecated. i have included all deprecated PRAGM's in the definitions for completeness. Better to have them there. if you had a old style database that use these deprecated PRAGMA's you could modify _pragmas for the deprecated PRAGM's you support to be a 0 instead of a 3.
d. The wal_checkpoint, can execute code on the database depending on some journal settings. This PRAGMA is not queried
2. given a valid Sqlite database filespec
a. print the instantiated object x = SqlLitePragmas(valud_sqlite3_d ). __str__ is overriden to privide the functionality. if you need another layout, its easy to change
3. given an instantiated class of SqlLitePragmas(),
a.you can print a list of all the PRAGMA names as links to the console. console.write_link() is used. The links are links into each PRAGMA directive at https://www.sqlite.org
'''

KNOWN BUGS
1. print_pragma_help_links - method
returns 1 unexpected result at the end of the list. None. I really have no idea why this is happening, is so strange. maybe a side effect of overriding __str__. i will track i down.
'''
'''
TO DO
1.
Add a set PRAGMA method. I have the code to do it now. its not difficult. but more testing required. i got some strange results i didnt expect. not many , but reading is one thing. writing is a lot more dangerous. So more time required...
2.
Add code to confirm the provided filespec is a sqlite database file. Also honour application_id setting. I have this code, but i need to make sure i get the TODO 1. set PRAGMA completley nailed before adding it.
'''
'''
Notes
1. I really question my use of the iterxxx calls on the dict. in this case, i assume its just crazy overhead and time wasting. large datasets, yes. but a single dict, its probably really stupid. i am sure just better to use like dict.keys() and dict.items() etc... rather than the iter versions. No need for generators here.
intrested if anone has ideas on this...
*** UPDATE ***
I replaced all the iter calls

_pragmas is list of PRAGMS I copied from sqlite.org
for my definitions:
The attr values I assign to each PRAGMA:
0 = Information Prama (Possiblly can be set also)
1 = If queried, this PRAGMA will execute code.
This PRAGMA is not queried, so not to execute code
eg. 'integrity_check'
2 = PRAGMA requires a specfic parameter, this PRAGMA is ignored
as this is just a generic information reporting tool
3 = PRAGMA is deprecated, included for completness only
Some PRAGMA's will come back with a message 'PRAGMA Not Supported'. this is not a message from sqlite, its a msg i generate. Some PRAGMA's are only valid under certian conditions. When in debug mode for example. That msg is returned if the PRAGMA is queried and results in an error. ( i am assume that this is the right thing to do)

there is one PRAGMA, that does not conform the normal rules for the web help link on sqlite.org :( so i do,a subsutition at runtime. its expensive to do it, but realitive speaking its not. if we were creating 100,000's of records, i would do it differently.
Normal convention is:
https://www.sqlite.org/pragma.html#pragma_ + the PRAGMA name
The PRAGMA user_version breaks the convention. I implemented like this in the event that some future PRAGMA's break. i know highly unlikely. but what to do.
