It would be nice to have the possibility of loading an sql file to database using normal database api. OK, let’s define what the ‘normal api’ is. This should be a full featured api for connecting to database and performing queries, with many drivers available. My favourite ones are: JDBC and DBI (yes, the one from Perl).
Unfortunately Python doesn’t have any. Python’s DBAPI 2.0 is a kind of joke, not API.
Another problem is that there isn’t any way to load an sql file into the database. The only workaround that I found is to use an external program like: ‘psql < file.sql’. But this is not the way an API should work.
