## DESCRIPTION

db.createdb allows the user to create a new empty database through different drivers. A working database connection needs to be established, see db.login.

Currently only SQLite and PostgreSQL database drivers are supported.

## EXAMPLES

### Create a new SQLite file-based database

    db.createdb driver=sqlite database=/opt/sqlite.db

### Create a new PostgreSQL database

Create a new PostgreSQL database (if PostgreSQL connection is established through odbc driver):

    db.createdb driver=odbc database=grasstest

Create a new PostgreSQL database (if PostgreSQL connection is established through pg driver):

    db.createdb driver=pg database=grasstest

## TODO

Support other database drivers too.
