@chen-xin Make sure to mark sqlite3 as an external:

// vue.config.js
module.exports = {
  pluginOptions: {
    electronBuilder: {
      externals: ['sqlite3'],
      // If you are using Yarn Workspaces, you may have multiple node_modules folders
      // List them all here so that VCP Electron Builder can find them
      nodeModulesPath: ['../../node_modules', './node_modules']
    }
  }
}
