# seba-sqlite — Legacy sqlite storage for Seba

License: copyleft · Maintenance: dormant · Downloads: 77.8K/mo

## What it is and what it does

Seba-sqlite is a legacy SQLite storage module designed to work with the Everest optimizer, a scientific computing framework. It provides a persistent backend for storing and retrieving optimization data using SQLite, allowing workflows to checkpoint and resume computations. The package depends on numpy and supports Python 3.8 through 3.11.

The package is classified as Production/Stable but has been dormant with no recent updates. It is released under GPLv3, which imposes copyleft obligations on any code that uses or modifies it. The low install friction and pure-Python distribution make it straightforward to add to an environment, but the lack of active maintenance and the legacy designation suggest it may not receive bug fixes or compatibility updates for newer Everest versions.

Use it for:

- Checkpoint and restore optimization runs in Everest workflows using SQLite as a lightweight persistent store.
- Legacy projects that depend on the original Seba storage interface and cannot migrate to newer backends.
- Scientific computing pipelines that need simple file-based data persistence without external database infrastructure.
- Prototyping optimization algorithms where SQLite's simplicity outweighs the need for a full database server.

## Worth the install?

AI-flagged interpretation of the facts above — verify before relying.

Provides legacy SQLite storage backend for the Everest optimizer, enabling persistent data management for optimization workflows.

Yes-with-conditions. Install only if you are maintaining or extending an existing Everest-based project that already uses this storage backend. The low install friction and lack of security vulnerabilities make it safe to add, but the dormant maintenance status and legacy designation mean it is not suitable for new projects—evaluate whether a newer Everest storage backend or alternative persistence layer would better serve your needs.

## Install

pip install seba-sqlite
uv add seba-sqlite
poetry add seba-sqlite

## Installing seba-sqlite

Before you install: Low install friction with a pure Python wheel. Package is dormant with no recent maintenance activity, though it remains classified as Production/Stable and supports current Python versions.

License in practice: Licensed under GPLv3 (copyleft). Any derivative work or modification must be distributed under the same license terms; proprietary or closed-source projects cannot incorporate this code without complying with GPLv3 obligations.

Quickstart:

pip install seba-sqlite
import seba_sqlite
# Use with Everest optimizer for SQLite-backed storage

Requires numpy as a runtime dependency; intended for use with the Everest optimizer framework.

Verify before relying:

- Specific API surface and how it integrates with Everest optimizer—documentation or examples not provided in fact sheet.
- Whether the package is still functional with current Everest versions or if it has been superseded.
- Active maintenance status beyond the dormant classification—whether the maintainers are responsive to issues.
