Usage

The first step is to initialize an empty admin interface for your Flask app:

from flask import Flask
import flask_admin as admin

app = Flask(__name__)
app.config["SECRET_KEY"] = "123456790"


@app.route("/")
def index():
    return '<a href="/admin/">Click me to get to Admin!</a>'


if __name__ == "__main__":

    admin = admin.Admin(app, name="Example: Csv")
    app.run(debug=True)

Adding Model View:

import pathlib
import csv
from flask_admin_csv_model.contrib.csv import ModelView, Model, TextField

csv_file = pathlib.Path("./example.csv")
with csv_file.open() as f:
    dialect = csv.Sniffer().sniff(f.read(1024))

class BaseModel(Model):
    class Meta:
        file: pathlib.Path = csv_file
        dialect: csv.Dialect = dialect

class Data(BaseModel):
    first = TextField()
    second = TextField()
    third = TextField()
    fourth = TextField()
    fifth = TextField()

class DataAdmin(ModelView):
    can_delete = True
    can_create = True
    can_edit = True

admin = admin.Admin(app, name="Example: Csv")
admin.add_view(DataAdmin(Data))
