Query a sqlite database from QML and/or Javascript?

[bundito]

Hi! First post!

I'm trying to develop a desktop widget for KDE Plasma using QML. I've got a bunch of text (random quotes and sayings) in a sqlite database.

Is there any way I can query this database?

I know I could write a Qt/C++ backend, but the fact that it needs to be compiled makes distributing it a lot more complicated.

Any suggestions?

Hi and welcome to the forums.
There is
http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtquick-localstorage-qmlmodule.html
which is pure QML.

Right, I've studied that. But there's no way to place an existing database into "LocalStorage", is there?
