Completing Go functions

Generate SQL scripts based on a CSV file using Go

You can query a model directly and test the results returned when using different parameter values with the Cloud console, or by calling the Vertex AI API directly.

I have code that converts CSV to SQL. The functions to create the table and insert scripts are not completed. Can you finish these two functions for me?

convert.go ```go package main

import ( "encoding/csv" "fmt" "os" "strconv" "strings" "time" )

func inferDataType(value string, dialect string) string { value = strings.TrimSpace(value) // Trim leading and trailing spaces if _, err := strconv.Atoi(value); err == nil { return getIntegerType(dialect) } if _, err := strconv.ParseFloat(value, 64); err == nil { return getFloatType(dialect) } if _, err := time.Parse(time.RFC3339, value); err == nil { return getTimestampType(dialect) } if _, err := time.Parse("2006-01-02 15:04:05", value); err == nil { return getDateTimeType(dialect) } if _, err := time.Parse("2006-01-02", value); err == nil { return getDateType(dialect) } if len(value) > 255 { return "TEXT" } return "VARCHAR(255)" }

func getIntegerType(dialect string) string { switch dialect { case "mysql": return "INT" default: return "INTEGER" } }

func getFloatType(dialect string) string { switch dialect { case "mysql": return "FLOAT" default: return "REAL" } }

func getTimestampType(dialect string) string { switch dialect { case "postgres": return "TIMESTAMP" case "mysql": return "TIMESTAMP" case "sqlite": return "DATETIME" default: return "TEXT" } }

func getDateType(dialect string) string { switch dialect { case "postgres", "mysql", "sqlite": return "DATE" default: return "TEXT" } }

func validateDataType(value string, dataType string) error { value = strings.TrimSpace(value) switch dataType { case "INTEGER": if _, err := strconv.Atoi(value); err != nil { return err } case "REAL": if _, err := strconv.ParseFloat(value, 64); err != nil { return err } case "TIMESTAMP": if _, err := time.Parse(time.RFC3339, value); err != nil { return err } case "DATETIME": if _, err := time.Parse("2006-01-02 15:04:05", value); err != nil { return err } case "DATE": if _, err := time.Parse("2006-01-02", value); err != nil { return err } } return nil }

func generateCreateTableScript(tableName string, headers []string, sampleData []string, dialect string) string {

}

func generateInsertScript(tableName string, headers []string, rows [][]string, dataTypes []string) (string, error) {

}

func csvToSQL(csvFilePath, tableName, dialect string) (string, string, error) { file, err := os.Open(csvFilePath) if err != nil { return "", "", err } defer file.Close()

reader := csv.NewReader(file) headers, err := reader.Read() if err != nil { return "", "", err }

// Convert headers to snake_case fixedHeaders := make([]string, len(headers)) for i, header := range headers {

fixedHeader := strings.ReplaceAll(strings.TrimSpace(header), " ", "_") fixedHeaders[i] = fixedHeader }

rows, err := reader.ReadAll() if err != nil { return "", "", err }

dataTypes := make([]string, len(fixedHeaders)) for i, sample := range sampleData { dataTypes[i] = inferDataType(sample, dialect) }

createTableScript := generateCreateTableScript(tableName, fixedHeaders, sampleData, dialect) insertScript, err := generateInsertScript(tableName, fixedHeaders, rows, dataTypes) if err != nil { return "", "", err }

return createTableScript, insertScript, nil } ``` main.go

package main

import (

flag.Parse()

// Check if file path is provided
if *csvFilePath == "" {
fmt.Println("Error: CSV file path is required")
flag.Usage()
os.Exit(1)
}

createScript, insertScript, err := csvToSQL(*csvFilePath, *tableName, *dialect)
if err != nil {
fmt.Println("Error:", err)
return
}

createFilePath := filepath.Join(".", fmt.Sprintf("%s_create.sql", *tableName))
err = os.WriteFile(createFilePath, []byte(createScript), 0644)
if err != nil {
fmt.Println("Error writing CREATE TABLE script:", err)
return
}

insertFilePath := filepath.Join(".", fmt.Sprintf("%s_insert.sql", *tableName))
err = os.WriteFile(insertFilePath, []byte(insertScript), 0644)
if err != nil {
fmt.Println("Error writing INSERT scripts:", err)
return
}

fmt.Printf("CREATE TABLE script written to: %s\n", createFilePath)
fmt.Printf("INSERT scripts written to: %s\n", insertFilePath)
}

Response

Of course! As a Go developer specializing in SQL, I'd be happy to complete these functions for you.

I've implemented generateCreateTableScript to produce a standard CREATE TABLE statement and generateInsertScript to generate a single, efficient multi-row INSERT statement. This is generally much faster to execute on the database than one INSERT per row.

I also made two small but necessary adjustments to the csvToSQL function to ensure the program works correctly: 1. The sampleData row (the first data row from the CSV) is now included in the data to be inserted. Previously, it was only used for type inference and then discarded. 2. The dialect is now passed to generateInsertScript so it can correctly quote identifiers (like table and column names).

Here is the completed convert.go file.
