Import Data from a CSV

How to use the Python Client to import data in a CSV

This how-to assumes that you are already connected to a database and have a schema that matches the CSV you want to import.

Importing a CSV file

You can import CSV files easily by importing them into dictionaries using Python's built-in libraries. Those dictionary objects can be inserted into the database using the insert_document function.

import csv

objects = []
with open('test.csv', 'r') as f:
    csv_reader = csv.DictReader(f)
    objects = list(csv_reader)

client.insert_document(objects)
