pymysql executemany

Cursor Objects — PyMySQL 0.7.2 documentation https://pymysql.readthedocs.io/en/latest/modules/cursors.html#pymysql.cursors.Cursor.executemany

executemany(query, args)

Run several data against one query

Parameters:	query – query to execute on server args – Sequence of sequences or mappings. It is used as parameter.
Returns:	Number of rows affected, if any.

This method improves performance on multiple-row INSERT and REPLACE. Otherwise it is equivalent to looping over args with execute().

sql_a_executemany = 'INSERT INTO answer ({}) VALUES (%s,%s,%s)'.format(field_a_insert)

        l = []
        for k in d['a']:
            qid, content, created = dbid, d['a'][k], tm
            l.append((qid, content, created))
        sql_executemany = {}
        sql_executemany['sql'], sql_executemany['args'] = sql_a_executemany, l
        mysql_write(sql_executemany, executemany=True)

if executemany:
    cursor.executemany(sql['sql'], sql['args'])
else:
    cursor.execute(sql)
