Why the SPSS Converter?
If you work with SPSS data in the Python ecosystem, you probably use a combination of two or three key libraries: Pandas, Pyreadstat, and savReaderWriter. All three libraries are vital tools, incredibly well-constructed, designed, and managed. But over the years, I have found that converting from SPSS to other file formats using these libraries requires some fairly repetitive boilerplate code. So why not make it easier?
The SPSS Converter library is a simple wrapper around the Pyreadstat and Pandas libraries that provides a clean and simple API for reading data files in a variety of formats and converting them to a variety of formats. The semantics are super simple, and should be as simple as: spss_converter.to_csv('my-spss-file.sav') or spss_converter.from_json('my-json-file.json').
