Consider https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues - here's a truncated subset: ```json { ""id"": 449818897, ""node_id"": ""MDU6SXNzdWU0NDk4MTg4OTc="", ""number"": 24, ""title"": ""Additional Column Constraints?"", ""user"": { ""login"": ""IgnoredAmbience"", ""id"": 98555, ""node_id"": ""MDQ6VXNlcjk4NTU1"", ""avatar_url"": ""https://avatars0.githubusercontent.com/u/98555?v=4"", ""gravatar_id"": """" }, ""labels"": [ { ""id"": 993377884, ""node_id"": ""MDU6TGFiZWw5OTMzNzc4ODQ="", ""url"": ""https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/sqlite-utils/labels/enhancement"", ""name"": ""enhancement"", ""color"": ""a2eeef"", ""default"": true } ], ""state"": ""open"" } ``` The `user` column lists a complete user. The `labels` column has a list of labels. Since both user and label have populated `id` field this is actually enough information for us to create records for them AND set up the corresponding foreign key (for user) and m2m relationships (for labels). It would be really neat if `sqlite-utils` had some kind of mechanism for correctly processing these kind of patterns. Thanks to `jq` there's not much need for extra customization of the shape here - if we support a narrowly defined structure users can use `jq` to reshape arbitrary JSON to match.",140912432,issue,,,"{""url"": ""https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/26/reactions"", ""total_count"": 4, ""+1"": 4, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,
