Does calebporzio/sushi require Sqlite?

I'm using suchi as a dependency for my package Laravel Algerian provinces

class Wilaya extends Model
{
    use Sushi;

    protected $fillable = [];

    public function getRows(): array
    {
        $rows = require __DIR__ . './../../arrays/wilayas.php';

        return $rows;
    }
}

And I hope that it doesn't force users to have SQLite set up.

Also, does not having SQLite for caching have a drawback on performance?
