Run multiple commands in sqlite manager

Question

It\'s possible to run more than one command in the direct SQL execution in SQlite Manager? (useful if you insert a lot of data)

e.g.

insert into Test         


        

Answer 1

Perhaps you may work executemany() method instead of execute()

Something like:

values = [
    ("Thomas", 25),
    ("Peter", 29)
]
conn.executemany("insert into TestTable (Name, Age) values (?, ?)", values)

Will work fine.

Answer 2

Solution is very simple ;-)

-> use a semicolon to separate the commands

insert into TestTable (Name, Age) values("Thomas", 25);
insert into TestTable (Name, Age) values("Peter", 29);
...

Answer 3

Alternatively, you could write the statement as:

insert into TestTable (Name, Age) 
values
("Thomas", 25),
("Peter", 29)
;

Edit: Please note, as per @DominiqueJacquel's comment, that this will only work in SQLite version 3.7.11+
