gollark: ...
gollark: ```javascriptconst db = require('better-sqlite3')('foobar.db', options); const row = db.prepare('SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = ?').get(userId);console.log(row.firstName, row.lastName, row.email);```
gollark: I don't want an ORM, I just want it to actually provide/accept data in a non-annoying way.
gollark: It has no convenient abstractions, you can't pass objects or anything, it returns tuples instead of objects, and I'm not sure if it actually supports prepared statements at all.
gollark: I want specifically SQLite, but the API for it in Python is so *awful* compared to the pretty good `better-sqlite3`.
