- The name of the utility being executed.--insert
- This flag tells csvsql to generate INSERT statements for each row of data in the CSV file.--db "${mysql:--user:password@host-database}"
- This option specifies the database connection details. It uses the mysql database driver and provides the connection string in the format "user:password@host-database". The connection details should be provided within double quotes.${data-csv}
- This is the path to the CSV file that will be inserted into the database. The variabledata-csv
