 Eidos File · SQLite 

##  Structured data you can keep reading. 

 Every .eidos file is SQLite. Standard SQLite tools can read its real tables today or years from now. 

1. 01 · Create a file and table  
```  
eidos file new library.eidos \  
  --table library --label-field title \  
  --fields '[{"name":"title","type":"text"},{"name":"author","type":"text"}]'  
```
2. 02 · Add a row  
```  
eidos data mutate library.eidos \  
  --table library \  
  --expected-revision 1 \  
  --insert '{"title":"Chaos: Making a New Science","author":"James Gleick"}'  
```
3. 03 · Read it with SQLite  
```  
sqlite3 -header -column library.eidos \  
  'SELECT title, author FROM library;'  
```  
 SQLite output  
```  
title                        author  
---------------------------  ------------  
Chaos: Making a New Science  James Gleick  
```

 Start working local-first.
