Hi, I have encrypted a plain database with the SQLCipher by following [this](https://discuss.zetetic.net/t/how-to-encrypt-a-plaintext-sqlite-database-to-use-sqlcipher-and-avoid-file-is-encrypted-or-is-not-a-database-errors/868) procedure. But now I cannot find how to use the same Database with SQLite3 in nodejs?
