csv-to-sqlite

=============

This is a simple, **datatype-guessing** script that takes CSV files as input and copies their contents into a SQLite database.  

(Column names are taken from the headers (first row) in the csv file.)  

Intended for **Python 3**. (I know it *did* run on Py2 as some people tried, but I haven't tested it.)

## Overview

Installs via

If you've installed the package as a dependency for your own script, you can use it like this:

```python

import csv_to_sqlite 

# all the usual options are supported

options = csv_to_sqlite.CsvOptions(typing_style="full", encoding="windows-1250") 

input_files = ["abilities.csv", "moves.csv"] # pass in a list of CSV files

csv_to_sqlite.write_csv(input_files, "output.sqlite", options)

```
