Summary

sqlitebiter is a CLI tool to convert CSV / Excel / HTML / JSON / Jupyter Notebook / LDJSON / LTSV / Markdown / SQLite / SSV / TSV / Google-Sheets to a SQLite database file.

Features

• Create a SQLite database file from:

  • File(s):

    • CSV / Tab separated values (TSV) / Space separated values (SSV)

Usage

Create SQLite database from files

Create SQLite database from URL

Following is an example that converts HTML table tags within a web page to SQLite tables by the web page URL.

Example:

$ sqlitebiter url "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_firewalls"
[INFO] sqlitebiter url: convert 'Comparison_of_firewalls' to 'Comparison_of_firewalls_Wikipedia_html1' table
[INFO] sqlitebiter url: convert 'Comparison_of_firewalls' to 'Comparison_of_firewalls_Wikipedia_html2' table
[INFO] sqlitebiter url: convert 'Comparison_of_firewalls' to 'Comparison_of_firewalls_Wikipedia_html3' table
[INFO] sqlitebiter url: convert 'Comparison_of_firewalls' to 'Comparison_of_firewalls_Wikipedia_html4' table
[INFO] sqlitebiter url: convert 'Comparison_of_firewalls' to 'Comparison_of_firewalls_Wikipedia_html5' table
[INFO] sqlitebiter url: convert 'Comparison_of_firewalls' to 'Comparison_of_firewalls_Wikipedia_html6' table
[INFO] sqlitebiter url: convert 'Comparison_of_firewalls' to 'Comparison_of_firewalls_Wikipedia_html7' table
[INFO] sqlitebiter url: convert 'Comparison_of_firewalls' to 'Comparison_of_firewalls_Wikipedia_html8' table
[INFO] sqlitebiter url: convert 'Comparison_of_firewalls' to 'Comparison_of_firewalls_Wikipedia_html9' table
[INFO] sqlitebiter url: convert 'Comparison_of_firewalls' to 'Comparison_of_firewalls_Wikipedia_html10' table
[INFO] sqlitebiter url: convert 'Comparison_of_firewalls' to 'Comparison_of_firewalls_Wikipedia_html11' table
[INFO] sqlitebiter url: converted results: source=1, success=11, created-table=11
[INFO] sqlitebiter url: database path: out.sqlite

Output:

$ sqlite3 out.sqlite .schema

The attributes within the converted SQLite database may include symbols as the above. Symbols within attributes can be replaced by using --replace-symbol option. In the following example shows replace symbols to underscores.

Example:

$ sqlitebiter --replace-symbol _ -q url "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_firewalls"

Output:

$ sqlite3 out.sqlite .schema
