SeeAsVee

Easy dealing with CSV import, including, but not limited to:

✓ import in any format: String, csv, xlsx; ✓ additional input formatting; ✓ input checkers; ✓ callbacks on errors; ✓ producing of “suggested edits” version of input (both csv and xlsx formats).

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'see_as_vee'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install see_as_vee

Usage

Load and validate

    sheet = SeeAsVee.harvest(
      'spec/fixtures/velocity.xlsx', # file exists ⇒ will be loaded
      formatters: { reference: ->(v) { v.round.to_s } }, # safe reference input
      checkers: { reference: ->(v) { v.nil? } }, # must be present
      skip_blank_rows: true # Optional, defaults to false
    ) do |idx, errors, hash| # row index, errors, row as hash { header: value }
      # Errors: {"Reference"=>"☣2̶4̶3̶7̶2̶3̶1̶1̶4̶"}
      expect(errors["Reference"]).to eq "#{SeeAsVee::Sheet::CELL_ERROR_MARKER}2̶4̶3̶7̶2̶3̶1̶1̶4̶"
      # Hash: {"Reference"=>"☣2̶4̶3̶7̶2̶3̶1̶1̶4̶", ... }
      expect(hash["Reference"]).to eq "#{SeeAsVee::Sheet::CELL_ERROR_MARKER}2̶4̶3̶7̶2̶3̶1̶1̶4̶"
    end
    csv, xlsx = sheet.produce csv: true, xlsx: true
    # in CSV cells, that did not pass validation, are striked out
    expect(File.exist?(csv.path)).to eq true
    expect(csv.length > 0).to eq true
    # in XLSX cells, that did not pass validation, are marked with red background
    expect(File.exist?(xlsx.path)).to eq true
    expect(xlsx.length > 0).to eq true

Dry::Validation

From the version 0.4.0 we support dry validation of the data given:

# Dry::Validation.Form if you are using dry-validation < 0.12
schema = Dry::Validation.Params do
  required(:reference) { filled? > str? }
  required(:trade_date).filled(:date?)
  required(:notional).filled(:float?)
  required(:notional_currency).filled(:str?)
end
validation = SeeAsVee.validate('spec/fixtures/velo.csv', schema)
expect(validation.all? { |vr| vr.errors.empty? }).to be true

The returned value is an array of validation results.

Produce

    ▶ require 'see_as_vee'
    #⇒ true
    ▶ SeeAsVee.csv(
    ▷   [{name: 'Aleksei', value: 42}, {name: 'John', value: 3.14}], col_sep: "\t"
    ▷ )
    #⇒ #<File:/tmp/am/see_as_vee20161109-6031-6he5m7.csv>
    #  -rw------- 1 am am 32 nov  9 07:18 /tmp/am/see_as_vee20161109-6031-6he5m7.csv
    ▶ .cat /tmp/am/see_as_vee20161109-6031-6he5m7.csv
    #⇒ name	value
    #  Aleksei	42
    #  John	3.14

Expand GROUP_CONCAT column

From the version 0.4.6 we support expanding the column given as an Array instance

    ▶ require 'see_as_vee'
    #⇒ true
    ▶ SeeAsVee.csv(
    ▷   [{name: 'Aleksei', value: 42, nicks: %w|matiushkin mudasobwa am-kantox|},
    ▷    {name: 'Saverio', value: 3.14, nicks: %w|trioni rewritten saverio-kantox|}],
    ▷   ungroup: :nicks)
    #⇒ #<File:/tmp/am/see_as_vee20161109-6031-6he5m7.csv>
    #  -rw------- 1 am am 32 nov  9 07:18 /tmp/am/see_as_vee20161109-6031-6he5m7.csv
    ▶ .cat /tmp/am/see_as_vee20161109-6031-6he5m7.csv
    #⇒ name	    value nick 1      nick 2     nick 3
    #  Aleksei  42    matiushkin  mudasobwa  am-kantox
    #  Saverio  3.14  trioni      rewritten  saverio-kantox

From the version 0.4.5 we support expanding the column produced by GROUP_CONCAT

    ▶ require 'see_as_vee'
    #⇒ true
    ▶ SeeAsVee.csv(
    ▷   [{name: 'Aleksei', value: 42, nicks: 'matiushkin,mudasobwa,am-kantox'},
    ▷    {name: 'Saverio', value: 3.14, nicks: 'trioni,rewritten,saverio-kantox'}],
    ▷   ungroup: :nicks)
    #⇒ #<File:/tmp/am/see_as_vee20161109-6031-6he5m7.csv>
    #  -rw------- 1 am am 32 nov  9 07:18 /tmp/am/see_as_vee20161109-6031-6he5m7.csv
    ▶ .cat /tmp/am/see_as_vee20161109-6031-6he5m7.csv
    #⇒ name	    value nick 1      nick 2     nick 3
    #  Aleksei  42    matiushkin  mudasobwa  am-kantox
    #  Saverio  3.14  trioni      rewritten  saverio-kantox
