Python 3.11.0 Import sqlite not found

Question

I've tried

python -m pip install -U sqlite

it returns

No matching distribution found for sqlite

I'm using python 3.11.0

Answer 1

The module is named sqlite3, not sqlite.

sqlite3 is built into Python's standard library (https://docs.python.org/3/library/sqlite3.html), you should not try to install it using pip.

If import sqlite3 does not work either, it means you've compiled Python without SQLite support, and you need to build it again after installing the libsqlite3-dev package.
