Example Code

import pandas as pd
from sqlmodel import Field, Session, SQLModel, create_engine
from datetime import datetime


class StockTimeSeries(SQLModel, table=True):
    id: int = Field(primary_key=True)
    symbol: str
    timestamp: datetime
    price: float


sqlite_file_name = "stock_database.db"
sqlite_url = f"sqlite:///{sqlite_file_name}"
engine = create_engine(sqlite_url, echo=True)


def create_db_and_tables():
    SQLModel.metadata.create_all(engine)


def insert_dataframe_to_db(df):
    with Session(engine) as session:
        for _, row in df.iterrows():
            time_series_entry = StockTimeSeries(
                id=row["id"],
                symbol=row["symbol"],
                timestamp=row["timestamp"],
                price=row["price"],
            )
            session.add(time_series_entry)

        session.commit()


def main():
    create_db_and_tables()

    # Simulating a Pandas DataFrame for demonstration
    data = {
        "id": [1, 2, 3],
        "symbol": ["AAPL", "AAPL", "AAPL"],
        "timestamp": [
            datetime(2023, 8, 1, 9, 0),
            datetime(2023, 8, 1, 10, 0),
            datetime(2023, 8, 1, 11, 0),
        ],
        "price": [150.0, 155.0, 160.0],
    }
    df = pd.DataFrame(data)

    insert_dataframe_to_db(df)

Description

Hi, I just started using sqlmodel and I would like to know if this way of managing time series is the optimal one.
In particular I need to write timeseries that are stored in side a pandas df. So:

• I iterate over the dataframe and trasforming each row to a StockTimeSeries instance, before writing each instance
• the class StockTimeSeries is modeling a single time series row, not an entire series

Is this correct or there are some other way to solve this requirement?

Thanks.
