This is a rails gem which can help you dump or export models to google spreadsheet easily.
TODO: Apply to_google_spreadsheet to ARRAY
- Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'google_drive'
gem 'activerecord_to_google_spreadsheet'- Add file to config/initializers/activerecord_to_google_spreadsheet.rb
require 'activerecord_to_google_spreadsheet'
ActiveRecordToGoogleSpreadsheet.configure do |config|
config.client_id = "$GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID"
config.client_secret = "$GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET"
config.redirect_uri = "$CALLBACK_URL"
endAnd then execute:
$ bundle install
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install activerecord_to_google_spreadsheet
Then you can use following api.
ActiveRecordToGoogleSpreadsheet.dump_to_spreadsheet(session, "$SPREADSHEET_KEY")Then you can see your databases show on https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/$SPREADSHEET_KEY/
You can also restore databases from google spreadsheet by following api.
ActiveRecordToGoogleSpreadsheet.restore_from_spreadsheet(session, "$SPREADSHEET_KEY")Then your databases will apply data from google spreadsheet.
There are some other api like this.
Product.where('price < 50').to_google_spreadsheet(session, "$SPREADSHEET_KEY", row_offset: 10, worksheet_title: true)The variable session is GoogleDrive::Session.
You can follow the following url to get GoogleDrive::Session.
https://github.com/gimite/google-drive-ruby
Or ActiveRecordToGoogleSpreadsheet provide other way to get session.
//You can use the following code to login google account to grant auth code
redirect_to ActiveRecordToGoogleSpreadsheet.google_login_url
//Then put following code to the callback url controller function
ActiveRecordToGoogleSpreadsheet.setup_session(params['code'])
//Then you can get session now.
session = ActiveRecordToGoogleSpreadsheet.get_session()Good Luck.
