: Is it possible to read/write to a local database inside a chrome extension?  I'm making a chrome extension that will need to look up information in med sized data files that will come with the extension, but would prefer sql.

What options are available?

Thanks!

You cannot run SQL queries on actual files (raw SQLite access is not available).

The deprecated Web SQL Databases are available, but you will have to put the data there first.

I have used TaffyDb (http://taffydb.com/) and store/load it from Chrome localStorage.  It suits all my needs so far.
