""" ETL Helper makes it easy to run SQL queries via Python and return the results. It takes care of cursor management, importing drivers and formatting connection strings, while providing memory-efficient functions to read, write and transform data. This reduces the amount of boilerplate code required to manipulate data within relational databases with Python. """ Version 1 includes a documentation website: https://britishgeologicalsurvey.github.io/etlhelper/ See the release notes for breaking and non-breaking changes: https://github.com/BritishGeologicalSurvey/etlhelper/releases/tag/v1.0.0 Highlights for version 1 include: + replace cx_Oracle with python-oracledb driver + dictionaries as the default row factory + closer alignment with DBAPI methods + type hints Cheers, John p.s. any feedback on the library from members of this group would be most welcome.
