Quick Start

In this section, some examples are provided to quickly show how to use exceltosqlserver.

Simple Example

from exceltosqlserver import ExcelToDB, hostname, local_ip

# Step 1, prepare your input parameters

yourFile  = "test01.xls"  # available for xlsx, xls,csv
yourUsrID = ""
yourPWD   = ""
yourDBname= ""
rename_table = ""  # Use your filename as table name to MySQL Server or user define their preferred table name. e.g. : "test"

# get your local host name
# this will return your local computer name for your MySQL server database
host_name = hostname

# get your local ip address
# this will return your local ip address (if your sql server can be accessed by DNS)
IP = local_ip
yourHostOrIP  = "localhost"   # you need to change your host if needed, dns: local ip address

# Step 2, save your data onto MySQL
ex = ExcelToDB(yourFile, yourHoseOrIP, yourUsrID, yourPWD, yourDBname, rename_table)
ex.save2db()


# output:
# Successfully load excel data...
# Secessfully connected to SQL Server...
# Secessfully saved 'yourtable' to SQL Server...
