```python
In [1]: import sqlite_utils
In [2]: db = sqlite_utils.Database('events.sqlite')
In [3]: table = db['cards.chunk.get']
In [4]: table.columns_dict
Out[4]:
{'id': int,
 'timestamp': float,
 'data_chunk_number': int,
 'user_id': str,
 'meta_duplication_source_id': int,
 'context_sort_attribute': str,
 'context_sort_order': str}

In [5]: from datetime import datetime
In [7]: table.transform(types={'timestamp': datetime})
In [8]: table.columns_dict
Out[8]:
{'id': int,
 'timestamp': str,
 'data_chunk_number': int,
 'user_id': str,
 'meta_duplication_source_id': int,

 'context_sort_order': str}

```bash
❯ sqlite-utils schema events.sqlite cards.chunk.get
