Can you could use this command to load CSV files? I'm going to investigate this.
The problem I see is that my CSV file isn't a SQL query, and secondly I do not have any control over the contents of the CSV file.
There are parts I need to change, such as the date which is stored as text and needs to be converted to a proper date format.
Also there are lines in the CSV file I want to ignore, such as the first 2 lines, and ensure it understands line breaks as being the end of a row.
I'm going to investigate whether you can use the command to load csv files.

processcsv.py
PROCESSCSV.PY(1) Virtualization Support PROCESSCSV.PY(1)
NAME
processcsv.py - process virt-top CSV files
SUMMARY
virt-top --csv data.csv
processcsv.py < data.csv
DESCRIPTION
virt-top is a top(1)-like utility for showing stats of virtualized domains.
processcsv.py is a simple Python script that post-processes the output of "virt-top --csv".
It is used like this:
virt-top --csv data.csv
processcsv.py < data.csv
The second command will overwrite the following files in the current directory:
"global.csv"
This contains the global (host) statistics columns from the CSV file.
"domainNN.csv" (multiple files)
For each libvirt domain ID NN, a file is created containing the per-domain statistics from the CSV file.
