The core idea of `sqlite-utils` is that if you can create a list, iterator or generator of Python dictionaries you can efficiently insert those into a SQLite table.

The `--csv` function is actually implemented as just a few lines of code which turn that incoming CSV into a generator of dictionaries:

https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/blob/169ea455fc1f1d5e5b6e44cb339ba7ffa9d49c31/sqlite_utils/cli.py#L364-L368

I could turn this into a reusable helper function but since it wouldn't have anything to do with database inserts (it would just be a helper that turns a CSV into a generator of dictionaries) it doesn't feel like it fits well in the Python library section of this package.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",491219910,importing CSV to SQLite as library,

But here's a snippet that makes it easy to insert from CSV using the library. 

```
import csv
from sqlite_utils import Database

# CSV Reader

csv_file = open(""filename.csv"")   # open the csv file.
reader = csv.reader(csv_file)  # Create a CSV reader
headers = next(reader)   # First line is the header
docs = (dict(zip(headers, row)) for row in reader)

# Now you can use the `sqlite_utils` library. 

db = Database(""my_database.db"")
db[""table_name""].insert_all(docs)
```

This snippet is adapted from reading the CLI source code on how it implements the csv option.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",491219910,importing CSV to SQLite as library,
