Examples

Import from file

USER>do ##class(shvarov.csvgenpy.csv).Generate("/home/irisowner/dev/data/countries.csv","countries")

Import from URL

USER>do ##class(shvarov.csvgenpy.csv).Generate("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/datasciencedojo/datasets/master/titanic.csv","titanic","data")

Call directly from python:

$ irispython /home/irisowner/dev/app/csvgen.py

or

import csvgen
generate('file.csv','dest_table_name','schema_name')

primary key import

If one of the csv cols should be a primary key provide its name as a last parameter, e.g.

do ##class(shvarov.csvgenpy.csv).Generate("/home/irisowner/dev/data/countries_dspl small.csv","countries","data",,,,"name")

so instances from data.countries could be open by country names, e.g.:

set country=##class(csvgen.sqltest).%OpenId("Albania")
write country.country
AL
