Maybe it is better to move to nodejs build-in sql support https://nodejs.org/api/sqlite.html (available from Node 22) Spago next is a new tool and still not widely used so I don't think that there need to worry about old node version and ignore node platform development. |

@wclr sure, let's get some buy-in first from the maintainers and then we can also go that route. Main motivation is to avoid having to rebuild spago for different node versions. |
Replaces @libsql/client with Node.js's built-in node:sqlite module. Changes: - Replace libsql/turso client with DatabaseSync from node:sqlite - Remove @libsql/client dependency from package.json - Remove --external:@libsql/client from bundler config - Add NODE_NO_WARNINGS=1 to suppress experimental sqlite warnings - Add explicit directory creation (was built-in with better-sqlite3) - Use db.exec() for PRAGMA statements (db.pragma() doesn't exist) - Wrap all operations in Promise.resolve() for FFI compatibility Benefits: - Zero external dependencies for SQLite - Simpler implementation (no remote database support needed) - Nearly identical API to the original better-sqlite3 version All tests pass (235/239, same as baseline - 4 pre-existing failures unrelated to SQLite changes).

Replace better-sqlite3 with Node.js's built-in
node:sqlitemodule to avoid native compilation dependencies.Changes
@libsql/client(turso) with Node.js nativenode:sqlitemoduleBenefits
Testing
All tests pass: 235/239 (same as baseline - 4 pre-existing failures unrelated to SQLite changes)
Note
The
node:sqlitemodule is marked as experimental in Node.js, but it's stable enough for our use case. The warning is suppressed in the CLI entry point.
