Question

I have doing some POC in Ruby-on-Rails and using sqlite database, while doing this I have different versions of db migration files.I want to drop all the tables in sqlite db to start afresh, there are ways of doing migration using versions but I want some handle for the sqlite (irrespective of ROR framework).
do I have to install some gem to access sqlite db? or is there any straight forward way?

If you want to reset your tables to an empty state, then you can use

rake db:reset

This will drop the database and run your migrations again. If what you want is to drop the database completely, then run

rake db:drop
