SQLite3 Electron windows integration

This guide is based on the very informative discussion in this article: Using node_sqlite3 with Electron

Install sqlite3

npm install sqlite3 --save

Navigate into the sqlite3 module folder

cd node_modules/sqlite3

Install nan locally into the sqlite3 folder (you will need it for the next step)

npm install nan@~2.1.0 --save

Prebulish the module:

npm run prepublish

Start compilation by setting the module path to the correct version, in this case node-v47-win32-x64. It is located in your sqlite3 folder.

node-gyp configure --module_name=node_sqlite3 --module_path=../lib/binding/node-v47-win32-x64

Finish compilation by setting your build to the correct target version. You will find the target version of your Electron-App in the version file in the root folder of your Electron directory.

node-gyp rebuild --target=0.36.0 --arch=x64 --target_platform=win32 --dist-url=https://atom.io/download/atom-shell --module_name=node_sqlite3 --module_path=../lib/binding/node-v47-win32-x64

Now you can use sqlite3 in your Electron app.
