 =============
 
-A single file C++ header-only SQLite wrapper library
+A Lua SQLite library via SWIG bindings over [cpp-sqlitelib](https://github.com/yhirose/cpp-sqlitelib).
 
 ## Open database
 
-    #include <sqlitelib.h>
-    using namespace sqlitelib;
-    auto db = Sqlite("./test.db");
+```lua
+local sqlitelib = require("sqlitelib")
+ 
+local db = sqlitelib.Sqlite(":memory:")
+-- or a file:
+local db = sqlitelib.Sqlite("./test.db")
+```
 
 ## Create table
 
-    db.execute(R"(
-      CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS people (
-        id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT,
-        name TEXT,
-        age INTEGER,
-        data BLOB
-      )
-    )");
+```lua
+db:execute([[
+  CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS people (
+    id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT,
+    name TEXT,
+    age INTEGER
+  )
+]])
+```
 
 ## Drop table
 
-    db.execute("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS people");
+```lua
+db:execute("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS people")
+```
 
-## Insert records
-
-    auto stmt = db.prepare("INSERT INTO people (name, age, data) VALUES (?, ?, ?)");
-    stmt.execute("john", 10, vector<char>({ 'A', 'B', 'C', 'D' }));
-    stmt.execute("paul", 20, vector<char>({ 'E', 'B', 'G', 'H' }));
-    stmt.execute("mark", 15, vector<char>({ 'I', 'J', 'K', 'L' }));
-    stmt.execute("luke", 25, vector<char>({ 'M', 'N', 'O', 'P' }));
-
-## Select a record (single colum)
-
-    auto val = db.execute_value<int>("SELECT age FROM people WHERE name='john'");
-    val; // 10
-
-## Select records (multiple columns)
-
-    auto rows = db.execute<int, std::string>("SELECT age, name FROM people");
-    rows.size(); // 4
-
-    auto [age, name] = rows[3]; // age: 25, name: luke
-
-## Bind #1
-
-    auto stmt = db.prepare<std::string>("SELECT name FROM people WHERE age > ?");
-
-    auto rows = stmt.execute(10);
-    rows.size(); // 3
-    rows[0];     // paul
 
-    auto rows = stmt.bind(10).execute();
-    rows.size(); // 3
-    rows[0];     // paul
-
-## Bind #2
-
-    auto val = db.execute_value<int>("SELECT id FROM people WHERE name=? AND age=?", "john", 10);
-    val; // 1
-
-## Cursor (multiple columns)
-
-    auto stmt = db.prepare<std::string, int>("SELECT name, age FROM people");
-
-    auto cursor = stmt.execute_cursor();
-    for (auto it = cursor.begin(); it != cursor.end(); ++it) {
-      get<0>(*it);
-      get<1>(*it);
-      ++it;
-    }
-
-    // With C++17 structured binding
-    for (const auto& [name, age] : stmt.execute_cursor()) {
-      ;
-    }
-
-## Cursor (single column)
-
-    auto stmt = db.prepare<std::string>("SELECT name FROM people");
-
-    for (const auto& x: stmt.execute_cursor()) {
-      ;
-    }
+## Insert records
 
-## Count
+```lua
+db:execute("INSERT INTO people (name, age) VALUES ('fish', 10)")
+```
 
-    auto val = db.execute_value<int>("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM people");
-    val; // 4
+## Select a records
 
-## Flat API
+```lua
+local names = db:execute_string("SELECT name FROM people")
+for i = 0, names:size() - 1 do
+	print(names[i])
+end
+```
 
-    for (const auto& [name, age] :
-         db.execute_cursor<string, int>("SELECT name, age FROM people")) {
-      ;
-    }
+## Check connection
 
-    for (const auto& x: db.execute_cursor<std::string>("SELECT name FROM people")) {
-      ;
-    }
+```lua
+print(db:is_open()) -- true
+```
