@ -14,7 +14,7 @@ Transform
SQLite's ALTER TABLE has `several documented limitations <https://sqlite.org/lang_altertable.html>`__. The ``table.transform()`` Python method and ``sqlite-utils transform`` CLI command work around these limitations using a pattern where a new table with the desired structure is created, data is copied over to it and the old table is then dropped and replaced by the new one.
You can use these tools to drop columns, change column types, rename columns, add and remove ``NOT NULL`` and defaults, remove foreign key constraints and more. See the :ref:`transforming tables (CLI) <cli_transform_table>` and :ref:`transforming tables (Python library) <python_api_transform>` documentation for full details of how to use them.
