Easy object mapping from spreadsheets.
It provides a way to obtain an object that wraps a row within a spreadsheet.
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'record_roo'
And then execute:
$ bundle install
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install record_roo
All you need is to know the location of your spreadsheet file:
> filepath = "myfile.xlsx"
Then, after you have included the RecordRoo module:
> ds = DataSource.new filepath
…or like this, if you haven't:
> ds = RecordRoo::DataSource.new filepath
You can just obtain an array of records by sending the :parse message.
> ds.parse
=> [["Key", "Name", "Price", "Category"], ["678678676", "PS4", "8000", "consoles"], ["234234234", "Coffee", "30", "snacks"]]
Or, for better, obtain a collection of instances from one of your classes.
> ds.model_generator({model: Product,
attributes: [:key, :name, :price, :category]})
=> [#<Product:0x007fc31a085ef0>, #<Product:0x007fc31a085c98>]
Keep in mind that for the desired result, you must specify the correct order of the attributes, based on your spreadsheet.
