Example

Chinook is a sample database available for SQLite and other databases. It's an alternative to the Northwind database and is meant for demos and testing ORM tools. It can be created by running a single SQL script. The following sample was generated against Chinook with:

sqliteviz -db chinook.db -ignore schema_migrations,sqlite_stat1 > example/chinook.dot
sqliteviz -db chinook.db -ignore schema_migrations,sqlite_stat1 | dot -Tsvg > example/chinook.svg

See the corresponding Graphviz dot file that was generated.
