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

key_lst = ('status', 'title', 'chapters', 'onchapter', 'genre', 'type')
cur.execute('INSERT INTO Media (status,title,chapters,onchapter,genre,type) VALUES ' + 
            '(?,?,?,?,?,?);)',tuple(values[k] for k in key_lst))

Do your escaping right.

You probably also need a commit call in there someplace.
