``` % sqlite-utils insert --help Usage: sqlite-utils insert [OPTIONS] PATH TABLE JSON_FILE

Insert records from JSON file into a table, creating the table if it does not already exist.

Input should be a JSON array of objects, unless --nl or --csv is used.

Options: --pk TEXT Columns to use as the primary key, e.g. id --nl Expect newline-delimited JSON --flatten Flatten nested JSON objects -c, --csv Expect CSV --tsv Expect TSV --convert TEXT Python code to convert each item --import TEXT Python modules to import --delimiter TEXT Delimiter to use for CSV files --quotechar TEXT Quote character to use for CSV/TSV --sniff Detect delimiter and quote character --no-headers CSV file has no header row --batch-size INTEGER Commit every X records --alter Alter existing table to add any missing columns --not-null TEXT Columns that should be created as NOT NULL --default <TEXT TEXT>... Default value that should be set for a column --encoding TEXT Character encoding for input, defaults to utf-8 -d, --detect-types Detect types for columns in CSV/TSV data --load-extension TEXT SQLite extensions to load --silent Do not show progress bar --ignore Ignore records if pk already exists --replace Replace records if pk already exists --truncate Truncate table before inserting records, if table already exists -h, --help Show this message and exit. ``` I can add a bunch of extra help at the top there to explain all of this stuff. That "Input should be a JSON array of objects" bit could be expanded to several paragraphs.
