Sphinx CSV filter extension for Crate Documentation

Project description

A Sphinx plugin that extends the csv-table reStructuredText directive to add row filtering options.

Prerequisites

You need to be using Sphinx and reStructuredText.

Installation

The Sphinx CSV filter plugin is available as a pip package.

To install, run:

$ pip install sphinx-csv-filter

To update, run:

$ pip install -U sphinx-csv-filter

Set Up

To include the extension, add this line to config.py in your Sphinx project:

extensions = ['crate.sphinx.csv']

If you’re using other extensions, edit the existing list, or add this:

extensions.append('crate.sphinx.csv')

Use

This plugin adds the following options to the csv-table directive:

:included_cols:

This is a comma-separated list of column indexes to include in the output.

:include:

This option takes a Python dict specifying the column index (starting at zero) and a regular expression. Rows are included if the columnar value matches the supplied regular expression.

:exclude:

This option takes a Python dict specifying the column index (starting at zero) and a regular expression. Rows are excluded if the columnar value matches the supplied regular expression.

If a row matches an :include: as well as an :exclude: filter, the row with be excluded.

Here’s an example:

.. csv-filter:: Example Table
   :header: Company,Contact,Country,Attend?
   :file: example.csv
   :exclude: {3: '(?i)Y\w*'}

In this example, rows from example.csv will be omitted from the output if the regular expression (?i)Y\w* matches value of the Attend? column.
