Is there a library / tool for querying MySQL data files (MyISAM / InnoDB) without a server? (SQLite method)

Question

Often I want to directly query MySQL data without starting the server or without access to the server (but having the rights to read and write files).

Is there a tool, or maybe even a library around querying MySQL data files, how is this possible with SQLite? I am specifically looking for InnoDB and MyISAM support. Performance is not a factor.

I have no knowledge of the internal functions of MySQL, but I believe it should be possible and not too difficult to get specific code?

Thanks for any suggestions!
