Source

bool DatabaseManager::openDB() {
    // Find QSLite driver
    db = QSqlDatabase::addDatabase("QSQLITE");
    db.setDatabaseName("database_name_here");
  
    // Open databasee
    return db.open();
  }
  
  QSqlError DatabaseManager::lastError() {
    // If opening database has failed user can ask

Execute a query

QSqlQuery query;
// Create a new table
query.exec("CREATE TABLE filelist(fullpath VARCHAR PRIMARY KEY, timestamp VARCHAR)");

// Prepare file Information to insert
QFileInfo currentFile = ...;
QString filepath = currentFile.absoluteFilePath();
QString timestamp = currentFile.lastModified().date().toString("yyyy-MM");

// Insert a record to the database
query.exec("INSERT INTO filelist VALUES('" + filepath + "', '" + timestamp + "')");

// You can also insert a record as following
query.prepare("INSERT INTO filelist VALUES(?, ?)");
query.addBindValue(filepath);
query.addBindValue(timestamp);
query.exec();

query.exec("DROP TABLE filelist");
