Your "engine.execute" statement looks wrong to me:
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 })
In particular, the VALUES clause is wrong. That's not the way that you
specify parameters when executing a parametrized query, so the
database is interpreting "(title)" as a reference to a column, rather
than a reference to a parameter.
You're probably best off using SQLAlchemy's text() construct:
https://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/13/core/tutorial.html#using-textual-sql
You would put this outside the loop:
insert_statement = sqlalchemy.text(
"INSERT INTO movies(title, year, runtime, imdbID, imdbRating)
VALUES (:title, :year, :runtime, :imdbID, :imdbRating)"
)
and then inside the loop you would use:
engine.execute(insert_statement, title=title, year=year,
runtime=runtime, imdbID=imdbID, imdbRating=imdbRating)
Also, I suspect (but haven't verified) that "engine.execute()" will
check out a connection from the pool, run the statement, and commit a
transaction. If you want to import all the rows in a single
transaction, you should probably explicitly create a connection at the
beginning, use "connection.execute()" to run your SQL, and commit it
at the end. See
https://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/13/core/connections.html#using-transactions
for examples.
Hope that helps,
Simon
