pandasquerysql 0.8.1

pandasql
This is a fork of the original pandasql, with support of multiple SQL
backends and more convenient interface. See below for more info.
pandasql allows you to query pandas DataFrames using SQL syntax. It works
similarly to sqldf in R. pandasql seeks to provide a more familiar way of
manipulating and cleaning data for people new to Python or pandas.
Installation
$ pip install -U pandasql

Basics
In addition to the original pandasql's sqldf function this fork has
a class PandaSQL, which new users are encouraged to use.
PandaSQL Class
The class is more convenient when you need to perform multiple queries. PandaSQL takes 2 arguments:

db_uri: an optional SQLAlchemy connection string (defaults to in-memory SQLite database)
persist: an optional boolean to determine if loaded tables are persisted in the database (holds connection open, default False)

sqldf Function
The main function used in pandasql is sqldf. sqldf accepts 3 parameters:

an sql query string
an optional SQLAlchemy connection string (defaults to in-memory SQLite database)
an optional dict of session/environment variables (defaults to **locals(),**globals())

Querying
pandasql uses SQLite syntax. Any pandas
dataframes will be automatically detected by pandasql. You can query them as
you would any regular SQL table.
$ python
>>> from pandasql import PandaSQL, load_meat, load_birth
>>> meat = load_meat()
>>> births = load_births()
>>> pdsql = PandaSQL()
>>> print pysqldf("SELECT * FROM meat LIMIT 10;").head()

joins and aggregations are also supported

FROM
meats m
INNER JOIN
births b
ON m.date = b.date;"""
>>> joined = pyqldf(q)
>>> print joined.head()
