sylk-parser 0.5

Basic SLK (sylk) to CSV parser

A .slk files parser

SLK format : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SYmbolic_LinK_(SYLK)

Largely inspired by : https://github.com/smontanaro/python-bits/blob/master/sylk.py

Installation

Usage

From Python code

from io import StringIO
from sylk_parser import SylkParser

parser = SylkParser("somefile.slk")

fbuf = StringIO()
parser.to_csv(fbuf)

test_results = fbuf.getvalue()
print test_results

Note on dates

Dates in Sylk files are non standard offsets. We try to find the good offset regarding the “ID” field.
