Is there a Golang equivalent of Python's sqlite3 .iterdump() for dumping a SQLite database to SQL text?

I have a SQLite database that I would like to export as SQL text. This can be done from the command line with sqlite3 existing_db.db .dump. However, this requires sqlite3 on the system to work. I'd rather do this operation from my Go code directly.

I've been using mattn's go-sqlite3 and have found no solution using that library (I posted an issue about it in case I was mistaken).

In Python, this is very easy to do, you can just use sqlite3's .iterdump(). Is there any equivalent in Go?

It sounds like there simply is no Go binding for that call. Depending on how tricky it is to implement you can write the Go to C binding yourself for this one. That is of course assuming the Python function is backed by the C implementation.

EDIT:
I assumed wrong, it's some sugar implemented in Python, here is the implementation. It makes sense this is not present in the Go version.

Thanks! I just followed your link and ported the Python implementation for go-sqlite3: https://github.com/schollz/sqlite3dump.
