You should always create your database from source code, so you can control updates and in general if the database was lost you would need to do so anyway.

Quote:
SQLite is a software library that implements a self-contained, serverless, zero-configuration, transactional SQL database engine.

I would prefer creating the DB from the code for the first time.

Solution 4

That would depend on whether the database should be prepopulated or not.
Sure you can do that with a script, but depending on the amount of data that might turn out to be unpractical.
