Open-ImageStoreDatabase

Opens an existing SQLite database file.

Note: A database has to be opened before other operations.

Note: To create a new one, use New-ImageStoreDatabase, which opens it as well.

Alias: OpenDatabase

Parameters

Name	Type	Description	Optional
Path	string	Path of the database file. Relative paths are resolved against the current PowerShell location.	No

Opening a path that does not exist is an error. SQLite would otherwise create an empty file, which looks like it worked until the first query fails.

Name	Type	Description	Optional
ConnectionString	string	A SQLite connection string, for settings a path alone cannot express.	No

For example, to open a library without being able to change it:

Open-ImageStoreDatabase -ConnectionString "Data Source=D:\Library\library.db;Mode=ReadOnly"

FromPipeline: Path, ConnectionString

None.
