A package that contains several functions for interacting with a PostgreSQL database using Python and the Pandas library
Project description
Description
This package contains several functions for interacting with a PostgreSQL database using Python and the Pandas library. Specifically, it includes functions for:
- Loading data from a CSV file to a Pandas dataframe
- Mapping Pandas datatypes to suitable PostgreSQL datatypes
- Creating new tables on a PostgreSQL database
- Inserting data from a Pandas DataFrame into a table in a PostgreSQL database
Functions
csv_to_dataframe(filepath: str) -> pd.DataFrame
This function reads a CSV file and returns a Pandas DataFrame.
get_dtatframe_column_dtypes_dict(dataframe: pd.DataFrame) -> dict
This function takes a Pandas DataFrame as input and returns a dictionary with the data types of each column.
map_pandas_to_postgresql_datatypes(column_datatype_dict: dict) -> dict
This function maps Pandas datatypes to suitable PostgreSQL datatypes.
connect_to_postgresql(**connection_params)
This function takes keyword arguments containing connection parameters for a PostgreSQL database and returns a database connection object.
create_postgresql_table(connection, table_name, field_dict) -> bool
This function creates a new table with the specified name and fields using the provided database connection.
insert_dataframe_into_postgresql(connection, table_name, dataframe) -> None
This function inserts all values in a Pandas DataFrame into a table in a PostgreSQL database.
Dependencies
This package requires the following Python libraries:
pandas
psycopg2
It also assumes that a PostgreSQL database is available and that the necessary connection parameters are provided to the connect_to_postgresql
function.
