Regardless, it's a sign sqlite is not right for you. You should start with postgres if you aren't sure your application will always be good with sqlite. It'll save you a migration, and doesn't really cost anything to start your project with postgres instead of sqlite.

There is an interesting pattern SyncLite (https://github.com/syncliteio/SyncLite) attempts to solve to bring the best of both SQLite and Postgres with one or more SQLite databases directly serving the application while SyncLite replicating/consolidating data from all those SQLite databases into a centralized PostgreSQL database..
It sounds like a solution trying to sell itself. While you probably can do something like that and it might even be useful for some applications, I can't imagine it's a very good generic solution - you probably want to do it yourself if you want to do it.
