DESCRIPTION:¶ ↑

This is a general purpose importer gem. This gem handles importing csv files. Usage:

Importer::CSV.open(“somefile.csv”) do |row, index|

# process the row
# if you want to ignore the row return Importer::CSV::IGNORE it will be
# added to the ignore .csv file in the log directory
# if you have an exception while processing a row it will be added to the
# error .csv file in the log directory with the exception information in the error .log file
# you can re-run these files if you need to

end

FEATURES/PROBLEMS:¶ ↑

• Allows you to process CSV files with ignores and exceptions written out to a csv file

for further processing.

• You can specify the log directory using the options :log_dir=>‘my_log_directory_location’ example:

SYNOPSIS:¶ ↑

# import a file Importer::CSV.open(“somefile.csv”) do |row, index|

# process the row
# if you want to ignore the row return Importer::CSV::IGNORE it will be
# added to the ignore .csv file in the log directory
# if you have an exception while processing a row it will be added to the
# error .csv file in the log directory with the exception information in the error .log file
# you can re-run these files if you need to

end

# Writing to a different log directory

Importer::CSV.open("somefile.csv", {:log_dir=>"/tmp/log/company_name"}) do |row, index|
    # now all my ignore and error logs will go to /tmp/log/company_name
    # this can be relative or absolute
end
