Automating Data Import from CSV to DuckDB Learn how to efficiently import multiple CSV files into a DuckDB database using Python. Overview This guide will walk you through the process of writing a Python script to automatically loop through a list of CSV files in a directory and import them into a DuckDB database. This method is particularly useful for consolidating data storage and simplifying data management. Step 1: List All CSV Files Use Python's os module to list all files in the directory and filter to include only CSV files. csv_files = [f for f in os.listdir(directory_path) if f.endswith('.csv')] Step 2: Iterate and Load Each CSV For each CSV file, use DuckDB's COPY command to load the file into a table. for file in csv_files: table_name = os.path.splitext(file)[0] file_path = os.path.join(directory_path, file) conn.execute(f"COPY {table_name} FROM '{file_path}' (HEADER)") Step 3: Complete Python Script Here's...
