Pandas Insert data into MySQL

Viewed 19235

I am trying to insert columns of data that I extracted from .csv file into MySQL using Pandas (Python).

Here is my code that I have so far.

import pandas as pd
from pandas.io import sql
from sqlalchemy import create_engine
engine = create_engine('mysql://username:password@localhost/dbname')
with engine.connect() as conn, conn.begin():

df = pd.read_csv('File.csv', usercols=['ID', 'START_DATE'], skiprows=skip)
print(df)

df.to_sql(con=con, name='Table1', if_exists='replace', flavor='mysql')

But, it does not mention about specific column names in Table1..

How do we express that?

This is what i did in my project

 import pandas as pd
 import sqlalchemy
 engine = sqlalchemy.create_engine('mysql+pymysql://root:@localhost/pd_test')

 ratings = pd.read_csv('ratings2.csv', sep='\t', encoding='latin-1',
                  usecols=['user_id', 'movie_id', 'user_emb_id', 
 'movie_emb_id','rating'])

 ratings.to_sql('test', con=engine, if_exists='append',index=False,chunksize=1)

Hope this help!!
