I wrote a little cli[1] that is a bit easier than curl for getting data to and from google sheets as csv. I do think this sqlite extension would be even more convenient if it supported writing data with INSERT/UPDATE.

This needs its own post

from the _what_

typo of gsheet?

More likely to be autocorrect doing it’s usual.

Yes that’s correct ! Oops

That sounds like me, but I don’t issue csvs.

I only issue .STLs

Gayest what? Sheet? Account holder?

For one, there's no CSV standard and often csv based data exchange methods have lurking (and/or obvious) correctness problems. Maybe gsheets and sqlite are lucky there, maybe not.

This project is also well documented including the gsheets side (which is quite non-obvious).

> Maybe gsheets and sqlite are lucky there, maybe not

Seems weird to to pooh-pooh the idea without any reason to think it isn't good. Also, it's not really a question of luck, is it? It's not that mysterious how to validate an integration like this.

>>"(which is quite non-obvious)."

ELI5 what this means, please? (unpack this for the ignorant among us, plz)

I mean the gsheets api access setup is convoluted and here it's well documented. It has about two dozen steps.

Well yes, there are actually many many CSV standards, my mistake for imprecise language. What I meant to say that there's no single CSV format that programs agree on. Starting with Excel...

Apparently it's quite common in Gsheet land to base your CSV export around things like this copypasta javascript code and customize as needed (follow forks, in parent direction too, for more of the story) https://gist.github.com/mrkrndvs/a2c8ff518b16e9188338cb809e0...
