This can be used to access the rows returned by the query. \n Iterating over a Results object will yield SQLite Row objects . Each of these can be treated as a tuple or can be accessed using row[\"column\"] syntax: \n info = []\nresults = await db.execute(\"select name from sqlite_master\")\nfor row in results:\n info.append(row[\"name\"]) \n The Results object also has the following properties and methods: \n \n \n .truncated - boolean \n \n Indicates if this query was truncated - if it returned more results than the specified page_size . If this is true then the results object will only provide access to the first page_size rows in the query result. You can disable truncation by passing truncate=False to the db.query() method. \n \n \n \n .columns - list of strings \n \n A list of column names returned by the query. \n \n \n \n .rows - list of sqlite3.Row \n \n This property provides direct access to the list of rows returned by the database. You can access specific rows by index using results.rows[0] . \n \n \n \n .first() - row or None \n \n Returns the first row in the results, or None if no rows were returned. \n \n \n \n .single_value() \n \n Returns the value of the first column of the first row of results - but only if the query returned a single row with a single column. Raises a datasette.database.MultipleValues exception otherwise. \n \n \n \n .__len__() \n \n Calling len(results) returns the (truncated) number of returned results.", "breadcrumbs": "[\"Internals for plugins\", \"Database class\"]", "references": "[{\"href\": \"https://docs.python.org/3/library/sqlite3.html#row-objects\", \"label\": \"Row objects\"}]"}
