Tab Import is a Python utility to ease imports of tabular data from CSV, ODF, XLS or XLSX files.
Some formats require an external Python library:
ODF: ooolib
XLS/XLSX: xlrd
This library is meant to be used inside a Django project context.
Usage:
#!/usr/bin/env python
import tabimport
smart_file = tabimport.FileFactory(file_path)
for data_line in smart_file:
do_something_with(data_line['header'])
Import helper
To use the Django import helper in your Django project, follow the steps below.
Add ‘tabimport’ into your INSTALLED_APPS setting.
Include the urls of tabimport into your urls:
path('data-import/', include('tabimport.urls')),In any of your models for which you’d like to enable data import, set a class variable like this: support_tabimport = True.
You can then link to the tabimport utility from one of your templates by reversing a url with tabimport:
<a href="{% url 'tabimport' %}">Import utility</a>
Alternatively, your models can include a class method which will receive the imported data as a dictionary just before they are used to create a new instance. This allows you to handle special cases in imported data:
@classmethod
def prepare_import(cls, values):
return values
