i get TypeError: function takes exactly 2 arguments (3 given), when i convert show_id and genre into list of tuples, i get ValueError: paramenter are of unsupported type.

import sqlite3
import csv

# create database 
conn = sqlite3.connect("favorites8.db")

open("favorites8.db", "w")
db = conn.cursor()

# create table
db.execute("CREATE TABLE shows (id INTEGER AUTO INCREMENT, title TEXT NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (id))")

db.execute("CREATE TABLE genres (shows_id INTEGER, genre TEXT NOT NULL, FOREIGN KEY (shows_id) REFERENCES shows(id))")

# open csv file 
with open("favorites.csv", "r") as file:
    # create dictreader
    reader = csv.DictReader(file)
    # iterate over csv file
    for row in reader:
        # canonicalize title
        title = row["title"].strip().upper()
        # insert title
        stmnt1 = "INSERT INTO shows (title) VALUES(?)"
        show_id = db.execute(stmnt1, (title,))
        
        # Insert genres

            db.executemany(stmnt2, show_id, genre)
    # commit changes

CodePudding user response：

I've fixed some mistakes and cleaned this up a bit:

conn = sqlite3.connect("favorites8.db")

db = conn.cursor()

db.execute("CREATE TABLE shows (id INTEGER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY, title TEXT NOT NULL)")

db.execute("CREATE TABLE genres (shows_id INTEGER, genre TEXT NOT NULL, FOREIGN KEY (shows_id) REFERENCES shows(id))")

with open("favorites.csv", "r") as file:
    reader = csv.DictReader(file)
    for row in reader:
        title = row["title"].strip().upper()

        stmnt1 = "INSERT INTO shows (title) VALUES(?)"
        db.execute(stmnt1, (title,))
        show_id = db.lastrowid

        # Insert genres
        data = []
        stmnt2 = "INSERT INTO genres (shows_id, genre) VALUES(?, ?)"
        for genre in row["genres"].split(", "):
            data.append((show_id, genre))

        db.executemany(stmnt2, data)
    # commit changes
    conn.commit()
    conn.close()

There were a bunch of issues:

1. executemany accepts iterable as a second argument.
2. First execute statement does not return id, but cursor object, you need to retrieve it manually.
