SQLite

In the Database tool window (View | Tool Windows | Database), click the Data Source Properties icon .

On the Data Sources tab in the Data Sources and Drivers dialog, click the Add icon () and select SQLite.

At the bottom of the data source settings area, click the Download missing driver files link. As you click this link, IntelliJ IDEA downloads drivers that are required to interact with a database. To decrease the size of the installation package and keep driver versions up-to-date, drivers are not bundled with the IDE.

You can specify your own drivers for the data source if you do not want to download the provided drivers. For more information about creating a database connection with your driver, see Add a user driver to an existing connection.

To connect to an existing SQLite database, specify a file path to the database file in the File field.

To create a new SQLite database, change the default name of the database if needed identifier.sqlite and click OK.

Also, to create a database, you can drag an SQLite DB file to the Database tool window.

To ensure that the connection to the data source is successful, click the Test Connection link.
