data load tool (dlt) — the open-source Python library for data loading

How to create a data loading pipeline with dlt in 3 seconds:

1. Write a pipeline script

import dlt
from dlt.sources.helpers import requests
dlt.run(requests.get("https://pokeapi.co/api/v2/pokemon/").json()["results"], destination="duckdb", table_name="pokemon")

2. Run your pipeline script

   $ python pokemon.py

3. See and query your data with autogenerated Streamlit app

   $ dlt pipeline dlt_pokemon show

Or start with our pipeline template with sample PokeAPI (pokeapi.co) data loaded to bigquery

$ dlt init pokemon bigquery
