A collection of helpers to reduce boilerplate with Tableau APIs.
Project description
tableau_helpers
A wrapper for the tableau-server-client and hyper-api which abstracts away boilerplate and in some cases provides a CLI which works without admin privileges.

Create hyperfiles from one or more csvs by providing a source, destination, schema, and optional parameters.
Code integration
See test_hyper.py for some examples in action.
tableau_helpers.publish
Upload datasources from your machine to the tableau server by providing a hyperfile as a source and a project as a destination.
Code integration
See test_publish.py for an example.
