title: Make a single insert query in python
body: <p>I tried to create a single insert query for the values in <code>template_list</code> array. These values are for field <code>template_name</code>.</p>
  
  <pre><code>dir_template_list = ['template1', 'template2', 'template3']
  sql = "INSERT INTO tbltemplate (template_name) VALUES(%s)" % (dir_template_list)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is there a simple/easier way to create this query using string placeholder?</p>
  
  <pre><code>INSERT INTO tbltemplate (template_name) VALUES ('template1'),('template2'),('template3')
  </code></pre>
  
  <p><strong>Edit:</strong> This is my actual table structure</p>
  
  <pre><code>FIELD   
  -------
  id             int(6)         
  template_name  VARCHAR(128) 
  </code></pre>
