List of system tables in SQLite

Question

I am trying to filter all the tables in a SQLite database based on if they are system tables or user generated ones.

So far I've found out that they are the ones with the sqlite_ prefix and AllDataTypes.

Has anyone done something like this? Is there a list of them?

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

I think it can be filtered by name (as you already done)

I've used script

SELECT 
  name, type
FROM 
  sqlite_master
WHERE 
  type in ('table', 'view')
AND 
  name not like 'sqlite?_%' escape '?'

Answer 2

sqlite_autoindex_TABLE_N - which will have information UNIQUE and PRIMARY KEY constraints on ordinary table.

sqlite_statN - which will have where N is an integer. Such tables store database statistics gathered by the ANALYZE command and used by the query planner to help determine the best algorithm to use for each query.

sqlite_user - this table will be present ,if we set up authentication-required database.
