uuidtools 0.1.4

Utility for find, extract, exchange and permutate uuids in string and pandas series

UUIDTools

UUIDTools is a tiny toolkit for working with uuids inside pandas dataframes or series, this toolkit will help you to extract uuids from string (normalized and not normalized) databases, and also permutate the ids into new ones preserving all the relations between diffrent tables.

Requierments:

Python 3 uuid

Installation:

pip install UUIDTools

Usage and use case:

The usecase of this tool is mainly to copy SQL based tables with relations, having two tables that you want to copy and export or reinsert but with different ids:

ID	parent ID
2d452c66-7ede-403e-8b72-fe02d8bd24ed	d009237f-1899-421a-b2d1-21fa3f7c3103
2d452c66-7ede-403e-8b72-fe02d8bd24ed	edb66645-fef8-4359-b0e8-097868ed0747
9d044ff0-1c81-4bb8-b15b-33e60abfcc9c	f22fd493-fcd5-46ac-9014-3a4b1a96b4f2

ID (Parent)	Name
d009237f-1899-421a-b2d1-21fa3f7c3103	Person 1
edb66645-fef8-4359-b0e8-097868ed0747	Person 2
f22fd493-fcd5-46ac-9014-3a4b1a96b4f2	Person 3

If you need to generate new ids but you want to preserve the relations you can not generate new random ids, this library will use the previous id as a seed for the next id generation

IDs
d009237f-1899-421a-b2d1-21fa3f7c3103, something that is not id, d009237f-1899-421a-b2d1-21fa3f7c3103
d980ce44-c8c3-4eb6-8e4c-1dbaed891c21
f22fd493-fcd5-46ac-9014-3a4b1a96b4f2, d4b8fb9f-c048-4a60-8860-9b0edff0d838, bla bla

Using this tool you can easily get the uuids contained:

IDs
{d009237f-1899-421a-b2d1-21fa3f7c3103}
{d980ce44-c83c-4eb6-8e4c-1dbaed891c21}
{f22fd493-fcd5-46ac-9014-3a4b1a96b4f2,d980ce44-c8c3-4eb6-8e4c-1dbaed891c21}

Which is the set of the uuids above.
