This system essentially introduces new PRAGMA commands to SQLite which allows the setting of a passphrase and other encryption parameters, allowing the database file to be encrypted. Connect Strings --------------- The format of the connect string is in every way the same as that of the :mod:`~sqlalchemy.dialects.sqlite.pysqlite` driver, except that the "password" field is now accepted, which should contain a passphrase:: e = create_engine('sqlite+pysqlcipher://:testing@/foo.db') For an absolute file path, two leading slashes should be used for the database name:: e = create_engine('sqlite+pysqlcipher://:testing@//path/to/foo.db') A selection of additional encryption-related pragmas supported by SQLCipher as documented at https://www.zetetic.net/sqlcipher/sqlcipher-api/ can be passed in the query string, and will result in that PRAGMA being called for each new connection. Currently, ``cipher``, ``kdf_iter`` ``cipher_page_size`` and ``cipher_use_hmac`` are supported:: e = create_engine('sqlite+pysqlcipher://:testing@/foo.db?cipher=aes-256-cfb&kdf_iter=64000') Pooling Behavior ---------------- The driver makes a change to the default pool behavior of pysqlite as described in :ref:`pysqlite_threading_pooling`. The pysqlcipher driver has been observed to be significantly slower on connection than the pysqlite driver, most likely due to the encryption overhead, so the dialect here defaults to using the :class:`.SingletonThreadPool` implementation, instead of the :class:`.NullPool` pool used by pysqlite. As always, the pool implementation is entirely configurable using the :paramref:`.create_engine.poolclass` parameter; the :class:`.StaticPool` may be more feasible for single-threaded use, or :class:`.NullPool` may be used to prevent unencrypted connections from being held open for long periods of time, at the expense of slower startup time for new connections.
