Right now, the only way to insert data is via insert(), which expects an in-memory structure.

insert_file(path: str) -> UpdateStatus would accept a path to a file and insert the data, depending on the file format:

json: contains a list of json objects and can be converted to a list of dicts with json.load(); each object must contain the table's column names as fields
csv: needs to have a header row, and the column names must correspond to the table's columns

mkornacker added the good first issue label

mkornacker changed the title ~~MutableTable.insert_json()~~ add InsertableTable.insert_file()
