build.gradle

import groovy.sql.Sql

apply plugin: 'groovy'
apply plugin: 'eclipse'
apply plugin: 'maven'

repositories { mavenCentral() }
configurations { driver }

dependencies { driver 'org.xerial:sqlite-jdbc:3.7.2' }

URLClassLoader loader = GroovyObject.class.classLoader
configurations.driver.each {File file ->
    loader.addURL(file.toURL())
}

task jdbcSample << {
    def sql = Sql.newInstance( 'jdbc:sqlite:test.db'
            , ''
            , ''
            , 'org.sqlite.JDBC' )

    sql.execute '''\
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS person(
id int primary key
,name varchar
)
'''

    sql.execute '''\
INSERT OR IGNORE INTO person VALUES(
1
,'test'
)
'''

    sql.eachRow( 'select * from person' ) {
        int id = it.id
        println "id:$id name:$it.name"
    }

    sql.close()
}

Thank you.
