Catholic Bible Database

[Julio Vásconez]

Hi everybody, i'm looking for a catholic bible on SQL DB. If someone can help me, please give me a hand...

Hey man, this is a bit old without a response, but I can weigh in. (Also, did we interact on /r/catholicism about this?)

Basically though, it isn't clear what you're looking for. On its face, putting the Bible in SQL isn't an obvious fit, since SQL is for relational tables, which means columns with different types of data (strings, integers, dates, etc.) that help describe rows, which are records that get values in the columns. And then you can have relationships between columns in one table and another (e.g., if you have Orders and Customers, then each order is linked to a Customer, and if a Customer makes multiple orders, they get listed appropriately for each record in the Order table, but there only needs to be one Customer record--at least in a simplified example, where we only keep the latest data for a Customer).

So: the Bible is just text, unless it is linked to another set of facts, and it isn't obvious what you gain by putting pure text in SQL, if there is only going to be a single column (or even a few columns, such as for book, chapter and verse--we're still not talking about a level of detail where SQL comes to mind as the right solution for me). Are you just trying to make it more searchable? Are you trying to integrate it into an app, and looking for a ready-made way to do that? Are you just familiar with SQL syntax and think it would be a convenient way to look stuff up? Or are there other facts that you are thinking to connect to words/verses/something, so that SQL is a better fit than it seems?

I'm even later to the game, but I found an app "Jerusalem Bible" in the Google Play app store. If you open up the data folder, there's an SQLite db there.
