pandasql

pandasql allows you to query pandas DataFrames using SQL syntax. It works similarly to sqldf in R. pandasql seeks to provide a more familiar way of manipulating and cleaning data for people new to Python or pandas.

Installation

$ pip install -U pandasql

Bascis

The main function used in pandasql is sqldf. sqldf accepts 2 parametrs - a sql query string - an set of session/environment variables (locals() or globals())

Specifying locals() or globals() can get tedious. You can defined a short helper function to fix this.

from pandasql import sqldf
pysqldf = lambda q: sqldf(q, globals())

Querying

pandasql uses SQLite syntax. Any pandas dataframes will be automatically detected by pandasql. You can query them as you would any regular SQL table.

>>> from pandasql import sqldf, load_meat, load_births
>>> pysqldf = lambda q: sqldf(q, globals())
>>> meat = load_meat()
>>> births = load_births()
>>> print pysqldf("SELECT * FROM meat LIMIT 10;").head()

joins and aggregations are also supported

        meats m

        births b

           , SUM(beef) as beef_total
           FROM
              meat
           GROUP BY
