Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Testing requires PostgreSQL which makes it harder to run the test than required.

Describe the solution you'd like Support SQLite as a database backend for small deployments and testing. We would need new environment variables to control the database backend. As part of the we should prefix the variables e.g. POSTGRE_HOST, POSTGRE_DB, etc.

Additional context See exposed configuration for sqlite here.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine how the database connection is currently set up via Exposed and the environment variables. Add support for SQLite by introducing new environment variables like SQLITE DB, fallback to SQLite when certain conditions are met, and ensure existing tests pass with both backends.
