I am trying to use sqlite3 in a ROS node. I think that ROS depends on sqlite3 so I already have the library on my system. The header file is in /usr/lib/. However, when I build my tests with catkin, I get linker errors against the functions in the sqlite3.h header. What do I need to do in my CMake to build against sqlite3?
I included relevant files, but I think the only one you might really need to see is the CMakeLists.txt.
I'm using ros melodic.
Linker errors:

If your library depends on SQLite3, as the error messages and your file naming suggest, you should import this package into CMake using find_package(SQLite3). It doesn't appear (based on the error output) that the SQLite3 library was linked via catkin_LIBRARIES, so you may have to do this manually:
...
# Tell CMake to locate the SQLite3 package on your machine.
find_package(SQLite3 REQUIRED)
add_library(${PROJECT_NAME} ${${PROJECT_NAME}_SRCS})
# Link the SQLite3 imported target to your own library.
target_link_libraries(${PROJECT_NAME} PUBLIC SQLite::SQLite3)
...
