Create a new table from a Python object.
|
|
|
|
The object should be a list containing a dictionary for each "row".
|
|
Nested objects or lists will also be parsed. For example, this object:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
'one': {
|
|
'a': 1,
|
|
'b': 2,
|
|
'c': 3
|
|
},
|
|
'two': [4, 5, 6],
|
|
'three': 'd'
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Would generate these columns and values:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
'one/a': 1,
|
|
'one/b': 2,
|
|
'one/c': 3,
|
|
'two.0': 4,
|
|
'two.1': 5,
|
|
'two.2': 6,
|
|
'three': 'd'
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Column names and types will be inferred from the data.
|
|
|
|
Not all rows are required to have the same keys. Missing elements will
|
|
be filled in with null values.
|
