I want to insert a Dataframe in a table using ODBC.jl , the table already exists and it seems that i can't use the function ODBC.load with it (even with the append=true). usually i insert DataFrames with copyIn by loading the dataframe as a csv but with just ODBC it seems i can't do that .
The last thing i found is :
stmt = ODBC.prepare(dsn, "INSERT INTO cool_table VALUES(?, ?, ?)")
for row = 1:size(df, 1)
ODBC.execute!(stmt, [df[row, x] for x = 1:size(df, 2)])
end
but this is line by line , it's incredibly long to insert everything .
I tried also to do it myself like this :
_prepare_field(x::Any) = x
_prepare_field(x::Missing) = ""
_prepare_field(x::AbstractString) = string(''', x, ''')
row_names = join(string.(Tables.columnnames(table)), ",")
row_strings = imap(Tables.eachrow(table)) do row
join((_prepare_field(x) for x in row), ",") * "\n"
end
query = "INSERT INTO $tableName($row_names) VALUES $row_strings"
@debug "Inserting $(nrow(df)) in $tableName)"
DBInterface.execute(db.conn, query)
but it throw me an error because of some "," not at the right place at like col 9232123 which i can't find because i have too many lines , i guess it's the _prepare_field that doesn't cover all possible strings escape but i can't find another way .
Did i miss something and there is a easier way to do it ?
Thank you
