How to exit dbshell (SQLite 3) on the command line when using Django?

Question:

How do I exit dbshell (SQLite 3) on the command line when using Django?

It’s my first time to use the command. I watch a book and am practicing Django at the same time. After I run this command, I have no idea how to leave the environment since I have never learned SQL before.

You can type .exit in thew shell to exit. For more information about commands, type .help.

It raises an error and exits … it was helpful 🙂

The exit key is determined by what SQL back end you’re running.

If it’s SQLite 3, like this question, it should be quit.

If it’s PostgreSQL, like my case, it’s q.

You may use ‘.quit‘ to exit the SQLite shell. Please mind the dot in front.
