Missing error code: UNKNOWN_SQLITE_ERROR_257

[Meztlicoatl]

I'm using a SQLite extension, particularly ICU support: I loaded it in the database creation and did normal things. Then, I tried to fill up that database with a separate script and connection, running a different ts-node instance. I forgot to update this script to also load this particular extension with the required connection, so I guess that was the cause.
Also, the error code description matches my guess: https://www.sqlite.org/rescode.html#error_missing_collseq

The error stack:

/path/to/project/backend/node_modules/better-sqlite3/lib/methods/wrappers.js:5
        return this[cppdb].prepare(sql, this, false);
                    ^

}

And the other main script where I loaded the extension:

const connection = new Database(serverRootPath('database/website.sqlite'))
connection.pragma('journal_mode = WAL')
const sqlite_version = (connection.prepare('SELECT sqlite_version() as version').get() as any).version
connection.loadExtension(assetPath(`database/libSQLiteICU-${sqlite_version}.so`))
connection.prepare('SELECT icu_load_collation(\'es_AR\', \'SPANISH\')').run()
// ...
connection.close()

Do you have a question or just wanted to share this? As you said, you tried to access the database using a different process that didn't have the necessary extension to work with the database file.

I posted this issue as recommended here in the API docs:

Sorry, I did not realize that. It was not clear from your message, you should re-open the issue then as it has not been resolved.

I think the error needs to be added to

better-sqlite3/src/util/constants.lzz

Line 116 in f01e0e4

SetCode(isolate, SQLITE_OK_LOAD_PERMANENTLY, "SQLITE_OK_LOAD_PERMANENTLY");

if you're interested in creating a PR.

Sorry for not being clear. First time doing this :D.
Fixed as requested and PR done #1273.

I think you can close this now.
