# alkstore-sqlite

The SQLite engine of the [alkstore](https://git.alk.dev/alkdev/alkstore/blob/main/README.md)
family: the core contract implemented on rusqlite over the forked
honker-core substrate carried in-tree.

```rust
let store = alkstore_sqlite::open("store.db", alkstore_sqlite::SqliteOpts::default())?;
```

**Engine posture — single-host, file-backed.** Cross-process on one
host is verified territory; a `.db` on network storage (NFS
two-writers) is not a supportable deployment posture. `SqliteOpts`
carries the watcher cadence and the reader-pool size;
`synchronous = NORMAL` is hardwired at connection bootstrap — there
is no consumer surface to raise the sync level.

See the [family README](https://git.alk.dev/alkdev/alkstore/blob/main/README.md)
for the interface and the deployment matrix, and the
[SQLite engine spec](https://git.alk.dev/alkdev/alkstore/blob/main/docs/architecture/engine-sqlite.md)
for the substrate's details. The substrate (forked third-party code)
ships with its own bundled license notice in the crate tree — the
root dual license files do not replace it.
