executemany(sql, seq_of_parameters)
Executes an SQL command against all parameter sequences or mappings found in the sequence seq_of_parameters. The sqlite3 module also allows using an iterator yielding parameters instead of a sequence.
import sqlite3
class IterChars:
def __init__(self):
self.count = ord('a')
def __iter__(self):
return self
def __next__(self):
if self.count > ord('z'):
raise StopIteration
self.count += 1
return (chr(self.count - 1),) # this is a 1-tuple
con = sqlite3.connect(":memory:")
cur = con.cursor()
cur.execute("create table characters(c)")
theIter = IterChars()
cur.executemany("insert into characters(c) values (?)", theIter)
cur.execute("select c from characters")
print(cur.fetchall())
Here’s a shorter example using a generator:
import sqlite3
import string
def char_generator():
for c in string.ascii_lowercase:
yield (c,)
con = sqlite3.connect(":memory:")
cur = con.cursor()
cur.execute("create table characters(c)")
cur.executemany("insert into characters(c) values (?)", char_generator())
cur.execute("select c from characters")
print(cur.fetchall())
