Implements the ability to merge tables from one or more source SQLite
databases into a destination database, as requested in #491.
Python API:
db.merge([src1, src2], alter=True, replace=False, ignore=False, tables=None)
- source_dbs can be Database objects or file paths
- Tables not in dest are created; existing tables have rows inserted
- alter=True adds missing columns to existing destination tables
- replace=True overwrites rows with matching primary keys
- ignore=True skips rows with conflicting primary keys
- tables= limits which tables are merged
- Virtual tables and their shadow tables are automatically skipped
CLI:
sqlite-utils merge combined.db one.db two.db [options]
- Supports --alter, --replace, --ignore, --pk, --table, --load-extension
Closes#491
This now works:
echo '{"date": "13th January 2025"}' | sqlite-utils insert dates.db dates -
sqlite-utils convert dates.db dates date r.parsedate
sqlite-utils rows dates.db dates
Previously the command would have been:
sqlite-utils convert dates.db dates date 'r.parsedate(value)'
The `--detect-types` option is now automatically turned on for all commands that deal with CSV or CSV.
A new `--no-detect-types` option can be used to have all columns treated as text.
Closes#679
Closes#659
The --functions option now accepts:
- File paths ending in .py (e.g., --functions my_funcs.py)
- Multiple invocations (e.g., --functions foo.py --functions 'def bar(): ...')
- Inline Python code (existing behavior)
Implementation follows the same pattern as llm's --functions flag
(simonw/llm@a880c123).
Changes:
- Added multiple=True to --functions Click option in query, bulk, and memory commands
- Modified _register_functions() to detect and read .py files
- Updated _maybe_register_functions() to iterate over multiple function sources
- Removed unused bytes/bytearray handling
- Added comprehensive tests for file paths and multiple invocations
- Updated documentation with examples
