Features include

• Fast pd.to_sql() for postgres and mysql
• Quickly check columns for consistency across files
• Fix added/missing columns
• Fix renamed columns
• Check Excel tabs for consistency across files
• Excel to CSV converter (incl multi-sheet support)
• Out of core functionality to process large files
• Export to CSV, parquet, SQL, pandas dataframe

Installation

Latest published version pip install d6tstack. Additional requirements:

• d6tstack[psql]: for pandas to postgres
• d6tstack[mysql]: for pandas to mysql
• d6tstack[xls]: for excel support
• d6tstack[parquet]: for ingest csv to parquet

Latest dev version from github pip install git+https://github.com/d6t/d6tstack.git

Sample Use

import d6tstack

# fast CSV to SQL import - see SQL examples notebook
d6tstack.utils.pd_to_psql(df, 'postgresql+psycopg2://usr:pwd@localhost/db', 'tablename')
d6tstack.utils.pd_to_mysql(df, 'mysql+mysqlconnector://usr:pwd@localhost/db', 'tablename')
d6tstack.utils.pd_to_mssql(df, 'mssql+pymssql://usr:pwd@localhost/db', 'tablename') # experimental

# ingest mutiple CSVs which may have data schema changes - see CSV examples notebook

import glob
>>> c = d6tstack.combine_csv.CombinerCSV(glob.glob('data/*.csv'))

# show columns of each file
>>> c.columns()

# quick check if all files have consistent columns
>>> c.is_all_equal()
False

# show which files have missing columns
>>> c.is_column_present()
   filename  cost  date profit profit2 sales
0  feb.csv  True  True   True   False  True
2  mar.csv  True  True   True    True  True

>>> c.combine_preview() # keep all columns
   filename  cost        date profit profit2 sales
0   jan.csv  -80  2011-01-01     20     NaN   100
0   mar.csv  -100  2011-03-01    200     400   300

>>> d6tstack.combine_csv.CombinerCSV(glob.glob('*.csv'), columns_select_common=True).combine_preview() # keep common columns
   filename  cost        date profit sales
0   jan.csv  -80  2011-01-01     20   100
0   mar.csv  -100  2011-03-01    200   300

>>> d6tstack.combine_csv.CombinerCSV(glob.glob('*.csv'), columns_rename={'sales':'revenue'}).combine_preview()
   filename  cost        date profit profit2 revenue
0   jan.csv  -80  2011-01-01     20     NaN   100
0   mar.csv  -100  2011-03-01    200     400   300

# to come: check if columns match database
>>> c.is_columns_match_db('postgresql+psycopg2://usr:pwd@localhost/db', 'tablename')

# create csv with first nrows_preview rows of each file
>>> c.to_csv_head()

# export to csv, parquet, sql. Out of core with optimized fast imports for postgres and mysql
>>> c.to_pandas()
>>> c.to_csv_align(output_dir='process/')
>>> c.to_parquet_align(output_dir='process/')
>>> c.to_sql_combine('postgresql+psycopg2://usr:pwd@localhost/db', 'tablename')
>>> c.to_psql_combine('postgresql+psycopg2://usr:pwd@localhost/db', 'tablename') # fast, using COPY FROM
>>> c.to_mysql_combine('mysql+mysqlconnector://usr:pwd@localhost/db', 'tablename') # fast, using LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE

# read Excel files - see Excel examples notebook for more details
import d6tstack.convert_xls

d6tstack.convert_xls.read_excel_advanced('test.xls',
    sheet_name='Sheet1', header_xls_range="B2:E2")

d6tstack.convert_xls.XLStoCSVMultiSheet('test.xls').convert_all(header_xls_range="B2:E2")

d6tstack.convert_xls.XLStoCSVMultiFile(glob.glob('*.xls'), 
    cfg_xls_sheets_sel_mode='name_global',cfg_xls_sheets_sel='Sheet1')
    .convert_all(header_xls_range="B2:E2")

Collecting Errors Messages and Usage statistics

We have put a lot of effort into making this library useful to you. To help us make this library even better, it collects ANONYMOUS error messages and usage statistics. See d6tcollect for details including how to disable collection. Collection is asynchronous and doesn't impact your code in any way.

It may not catch all errors so if you run into any problems or have any questions, please raise an issue on github.
