Parsing SQLite Database Schema in sqlitedb file?

Question

I wrote a program for parsing SQLite file, i can parse all data from b-tree pages to record, column & values but i need to parse schema of tables, i found something like database schema stored in page 1 (root page) and i can see it with Hex Editor, and i found structure of sqlite_master, i read it exact as explain in http://sqlite.org/fileformat2.html

I want to know how can i found the first byte of sqlite_master table in db file, how can i detect starting byte of schema? is there anything related in SQLite DB Header?

Edit 1 (more info):

For example: i opened sqlite db with hex editor, (if you check my page size is 4096 bytes and i marked page header in image):

i marked root page header that start with 05 means the page is an interior table b-tree page and please check B-tree Page Header Format (http://sqlite.org/fileformat2.html) and its have 5 cells that you can see it with this cell pointers array: 0FFB, 0FF6, 0FF1, 0FEC, 0FE7 (that start after ending header) and all cells have 5 bytes and start from 0FE7 then the schema that you can see it in picture ( in text part ) start from 232~240 and i check other dbs and schema in different place...

Edit 2:

You can download Example File from https://www.dropbox.com/s/lanky02kneyb74w/31bb7ba8914766d4ba40d6dfb6113c8b614be442

Edit 3:

In my file you can see

$ hexdump -C 31bb7ba8914766d4ba40d6dfb6113c8b614be442

Answer 1

I realize your question was asked over a year ago and you probably resolved it, but I would like to submit an answer in case anyone else has this same question. I was in the same situation as you, Mehdi. I wanted to read a SQLite database file, and was looking for the master table / schema. It appeared to be in page 1, but the header was not pointing to it. There were two reasons for my confusion.

(1) There was a lot of "dead" data in my SQLite database file that was not being used. I believe as the database was created and grew, the location of the actual active data moved, and the old location was not overwritten with zeros. Doing a search for some of the "CREATE TABLE" statements found multiple results in different locations of the file. I later determined the actual schema was split up and located on pages 18, 10, and 8 (which the page 1 interior table pointed to). I would have detected this earlier, if not for reason #2.

(2) I had miscalculated the byte position of the page number, which confused me. Where p = page #, and s = page size, I thought it was [p * s] .... but actually it's [(p-1) * s] (except for page 1 which starts at byte 100). In other words, I thought the page numbering started at zero instead of 1.

As an additional note, I believe the http://sqlite.org/fileformat2.html page is missing some vital info. Specifically, it doesn't explain where the "root page" number is in the schema table (it's in field 4). I couldn't find this information on the sqlite.org page.
