# SQLite SDK

> Rapidly spin up Arivu with an embedded local SQLite engine.

## SDK Configuration

Integrating SQLite within your Python application is seamless. Utilize the `Arivu.connect()` static factory.

<CodeGroup>
  ```python python theme={null}
  from arivu import Arivu

  db = Arivu.connect(
      dialect="sqlite",
      dbname="local_prototype.db"
  )
  ```
</CodeGroup>

<Info>
  Setting `mode="user"` prevents Arivu from executing destructive SQL operations (like `DROP` or `UPDATE`). They will instead be held in an approval queue.
