Python Sqlite3: INSERT INTO table VALUE(dictionary goes here)

Question

I would like to use a dictionary to insert values into a table, how would I do this?

import sqlite3

db = sqlite3.connect(\'local.db\')
cur = db.cursor()

c         


        

Answer 1

Here's a more generic way with the benefit of escaping:

# One way. If keys can be corrupted don't use.
sql = 'INSERT INTO demo ({}) VALUES ({})'.format(
            ','.join(my_dict.keys()),
            ','.join(['?']*len(my_dict)))

# Another, better way. Hardcoded w/ your keys.
sql = 'INSERT INTO demo ({}) VALUES ({})'.format(
            ','.join(my_keys),
            ','.join(['?']*len(my_dict)))

cur.execute(sql, tuple(my_dict.values()))
