• Search Suggestions on My Website 27 July 2021

  • python
  • sqlite

  I previously talked about the search engine I recently added to my blog, and this is an extension to that previous post. Here I will discuss how I added a simple search suggestion option. It works for my website with the limited vocabulary and time to return results, but if I was working on a larger site I might try to make it smarter. So here’s how I implemented it.

  I always wanted to have search on my site, but it’s statically hosted, so I can’t have any dynamic content on it. I recently resolved that by creating a little tiny lambda function on AWS that queries a SQLite database hosted on S3. Here I’ll walk you through how I created the back-end for it, and in some later posts I’ll include details on calculating the cost.

  In this post, I provide access to a data visualizer for the Pennsylvania lottery using data I pull regularly from their RSS feed. This tool uses SQLite and some scripts to automatically pull data to this post which is then visualized using Chart.js. I created histograms of the most common drawn numbers for the drawings in which a particular number appears, and you can see that visualized below in the charts.

  I actually created a sqlite database to track exactly how long I worked at various jobs. I created this database, because I don’t trust the payroll system we use at work. I will share the schema and views in this post. If you don’t want to read through this post you can get it here.

  This is my in-depth SQLite tutorial for C++. This is the first tutorial I am doing on this website. It is really difficult to find a good tutorial for prepared statements with SQLite, and that is what this tutorial will remedy.
