Can't open Sqlite on Git Bash

Question

I'm trying to access my sqlite database on my current directory at /c/wamp/www/laravel5 on my local project folder, with windows as my OS. I added the sqlite3 executable on the directory.

The database doesn't seem to open using git bash. When using the default command in windows command prompt it works seamlesly. sqlite3.exe storage/database.sqlite

Tried on Git Bash:

$ ./sqlite3.exe 

and

$ ./sqlite3.exe storage/database.sqlite

These didn't work. The error message is:

bash: sqlite3.exe: command not found

Here's a snapshot:

I'd like to see the database tables and schema using git bash since it has cooler font colors compare with the windows cmd.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

if you have the same problem I had, then see my question here.

In short, using "winpty" to start sqlite3 worked:

$ winpty sqlite3

Answer 2

Building on the previous answer by @user172431, add the following alias to your .bashrc

alias sqlite3="winpty sqlite3.exe"

This will make the workflow a tad quicker and feel like a ninja rock-star in the process. I use this shortcut via Git Bash
