Importing .csv file to sqlite3 db table
After much studies and discussion, I found an answer that is working properly,
echo -e ".separator ","\n.import /home/aj/ora_exported.csv qt_exported2" | sqlite3 testdatabase.dbthe main thing is, that I needed to include the path of the .csv file in the import statement.
I found this to work:
(echo .separator ,; echo .import path/to/file.csv table_name) | sqlite3 filename.dbThe accepted answer fails to work for me.
Why don't you take advantage of Sqlite's built-in command-line options to load CVS file to Sqlite database table? I assume you are writing bash shell script to load CSV files data to SQLite table.
Have a look on bellow single line bash script:
#!/bin/bashsqlite3 -separator "," -cmd ".import /path/to/test.csv aj_test" ajtest.dbWith my limited knowladge, I can't give you any example to automatically logout sqlite cli after being load done on db!
