SQLite - How would I pass multiple parameters to SQLite without requesting from the database multiple times?

I basically have an array of usernames in my node.js code. I need to perform some actions for each username. I need to check if the user exists in the database or not. If it doesn't, create it with a value of 5 in my points column. If it does exist, add 5 to it's existing points score.What would be the best way of doing this without speaking to the database many many times to request each object indivudally?Any ideas?
