What Convert CSV to SQLite can do:
Convert CSV to SQLite takes tabular data and turns it into SQL commands ready for SQLite execution. It builds a full schema from the headers and inserts each row of data with configurable formatting. You can toggle field trimming, safely quote values, and even auto-assign column types. Ideal for devs migrating CSV files into test databases or prototyping schemas. Everything happens in the browser, making it fast and secure with no upload delays.
Example:
Before:
name,age,city
Alice,30,New York
Bob,25,Los Angeles
After:
CREATE TABLE my_table (
name TEXT,
age TEXT,
city TEXT
);
INSERT INTO my_table VALUES ('Alice', 30, 'New York');
INSERT INTO my_table VALUES ('Bob', 25, 'Los Angeles');
Common Use Cases:
Use this tool when you need to quickly move data from a CSV into a SQLite schema for testing, development, or prototyping. It’s also handy for generating ready-to-run SQL for import tools, APIs, or database migration scripts.
Useful Tools & Suggestions:
Before importing into SQLite, use Analyze CSV to make sure your data types look consistent. And after conversion, try Convert SQLite to CSV if you ever need to pull that data back out.
