        Write records stored in a DataFrame to a SQL database.

        Databases supported by SQLAlchemy [1]_ are supported. Tables can be
        newly created, appended to, or overwritten.

        Parameters
        ----------
        name : string
            Name of SQL table.
        con : sqlalchemy.engine.Engine or sqlite3.Connection
            Using SQLAlchemy makes it possible to use any DB supported by that
            library. Legacy support is provided for sqlite3.Connection objects.
        schema : string, optional
            Specify the schema (if database flavor supports this). If None, use
            default schema.
        if_exists : {'fail', 'replace', 'append'}, default 'fail'
            How to behave if the table already exists.

            * fail: Raise a ValueError.
            * replace: Drop the table before inserting new values.
            * append: Insert new values to the existing table.

        index : bool, default True
            Write DataFrame index as a column. Uses `index_label` as the column
            name in the table.
        index_label : string or sequence, default None
            Column label for index column(s). If None is given (default) and
            `index` is True, then the index names are used.
            A sequence should be given if the DataFrame uses MultiIndex.
        chunksize : int, optional
            Rows will be written in batches of this size at a time. By default,
            all rows will be written at once.
        dtype : dict, optional
            Specifying the datatype for columns. The keys should be the column
            names and the values should be the SQLAlchemy types or strings for
            the sqlite3 legacy mode.
        method : {None, 'multi', callable}, default None
            Controls the SQL insertion clause used:

            * None : Uses standard SQL ``INSERT`` clause (one per row).
            * 'multi': Pass multiple values in a single ``INSERT`` clause.
            * callable with signature ``(pd_table, conn, keys, data_iter)``.

            Details and a sample callable implementation can be found in the
            section :ref:`insert method <io.sql.method>`.

        Raises

        ValueError

        Timezone aware datetime columns will be written as
        ``Timestamp with timezone`` type with SQLAlchemy if supported by the
        database. Otherwise, the datetimes will be stored as timezone unaware
        timestamps local to the original timezone.

        Examples
        --------

        Create an in-memory SQLite database.

        >>> from sqlalchemy import create_engine
        >>> engine = create_engine('sqlite://', echo=False)

        Create a table from scratch with 3 rows.

        >>> df = pd.DataFrame({'name' : ['User 1', 'User 2', 'User 3']})
        >>> df
             name
        0  User 1
        1  User 2
        2  User 3

        >>> df.to_sql('users', con=engine)
        >>> engine.execute("SELECT * FROM users").fetchall()
        [(0, 'User 1'), (1, 'User 2'), (2, 'User 3')]

        >>> df1 = pd.DataFrame({'name' : ['User 4', 'User 5']})
        >>> df1.to_sql('users', con=engine, if_exists='append')
        >>> engine.execute("SELECT * FROM users").fetchall()
        [(0, 'User 1'), (1, 'User 2'), (2, 'User 3'),
         (0, 'User 4'), (1, 'User 5')]

        Overwrite the table with just ``df1``.

        >>> df1.to_sql('users', con=engine, if_exists='replace',
        ...            index_label='id')
        >>> engine.execute("SELECT * FROM users").fetchall()
        [(0, 'User 4'), (1, 'User 5')]

        Specify the dtype (especially useful for integers with missing values).
        Notice that while pandas is forced to store the data as floating point,
        the database supports nullable integers. When fetching the data with
        Python, we get back integer scalars.

        >>> df = pd.DataFrame({"A": [1, None, 2]})
        >>> df
             A
        0  1.0
