Hi guys, 

Have edited the code, but Im still getting an error. I have already edited my apostrophes and spacing and looked up examples from google to try and resolve my error to no avail. I also ensured that i defined DATABASE_URL properly. Sorry for the long traceback error at the end :P Please note that my csv values are stored in lists in each cell. They are arranged in a single column such as

The Lego Movie;2014;100;tt1490017;7.8  <—  The last value (7.8) is of type numeric, not integer.

This is my main code

import csv

import sys

import os

from sqlalchemy import Column, ForeignKey, Integer, String

from sqlalchemy import create_engine

from flask import Flask, render_template, request, session

from flask_sqlalchemy import SQLAlchemy

from flask_session import Session

 

engine = create_engine(os.getenv("DATABASE_URL")) # database engine object from SQLAlchemy that manages connections to the database,# DATABASE_URL is an environment variable that indicates where the database lives

 

def main():

    f = open("movies.csv","r")

    reader = csv.reader(f)

    for row in f: # loop gives each column a name

        vals = row.split(';')

        title = vals[0]

        year = vals[1]

        runtime = vals[2]

        imdbID = vals[3]

        imdbRating = vals[4]

        engine.execute('INSERT INTO movies("title","year","runtime","imdbID","imdbRating") VALUES ((title), (year), (runtime), (imdbID), (imdbRating))',

        {"title": title, "year": year, "runtime": runtime, "imdbID": imdbID, "imdbRating": imdbRating })

    engine.commit() # transactions are assumed, so close the transaction finished

if __name__ == "__main__":

    main()

 

SQL code:

CREATE TABLE movies (

      "title" SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,

      "year" INTEGER NOT NULL,

      "runtime" INTEGER NOT NULL,

      "imdbID" VARCHAR NOT NULL,

      "imdbRating" INTEGER NOT NULL

  );

New error code:
