Getting Started

Installation

The package use semantic versioning. It means that major versions could include breaking changes. It's highly recommended to specify package version range in your setup/requirements file e.g. package>=1.0,<2.0.

pip install tableschema-sql

Documentation

from datapackage import Package 
from tableschema import Table
from sqlalchemy import create_engine

# Create sqlalchemy engine
engine = create_engine('sqlite://')

# Save package to SQL
package = Package('datapackage.json')
package.save(storage='sql', engine=engine)

# Load package from SQL
package = Package(storage='sql', engine=engine)
package.resources

API Reference

Storage

Storage(self, engine, dbschema=None, prefix='', reflect_only=None, autoincrement=None)

SQL storage

Package implements Tabular Storage interface (see full documentation on the link):

Only additional API is documented

Arguments

• engine (object): sqlalchemy engine
• dbschema (str): name of database schema
• prefix (str): prefix for all buckets
• reflect_only (callable): a boolean predicate to filter the list of table names when reflecting
• autoincrement (str/dict): add autoincrement column at the beginning. - if a string it's an autoincrement column name - if a dict it's an autoincrements mapping with column names indexed by bucket names, for example, {'bucket1': 'id', 'bucket2': 'other_id}

storage.create

storage.create(self, bucket, descriptor, force=False, indexes_fields=None)

Create bucket

Arguments

• indexes_fields (str[]): list of tuples containing field names, or list of such lists

storage.write

storage.write(self, bucket, rows, keyed=False, as_generator=False, update_keys=None, buffer_size=1000, use_bloom_filter=True)

Write to bucket

Arguments

• keyed (bool): accept keyed rows
• as_generator (bool): returns generator to provide writing control to the client
• update_keys (str[]): update instead of inserting if key values match existent rows
• buffer_size (int=1000): maximum number of rows to try and write to the db in one batch
• use_bloom_filter (bool=True): should we use a bloom filter to optimize DB update performance (in exchange for some setup time)

Contributing
