=======

Put together some CSV files into a single Excel file, in different sheets.

Installation
------------

You can install directly after cloning:

.. code-block:: bash

$ python setup.py install --user

Or use the Python package:

.. code-block:: bash

$ pip install --user csv2xls

Dependency
----------

Outside the standard library, the `xlwt `_ package is needed, and should be
automatically installed with setuptools. Otherwise:

.. code-block:: bash

$ pip install --user xlwt

Example
-------

.. code-block:: bash

$ csv2xls examples/sheet_alpha.csv examples/sheet_beta.csv -o output.xls
Processing examples/sheet_alpha.csv -> output.xls/alpha
Processing examples/sheet_beta.csv -> output.xls/beta

Usage

.. code-block:: bash

$ csv2xls -h
usage: csv2xls [-h] [-o OUTPUT] [-c] [-d DELIMITER] [-q QUOTECHAR] [-n]

files [files ...]

Put together some CSV files into a single Excel file. Basic types are inferred
automatically.

positional arguments:
files

optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-o OUTPUT, --output OUTPUT
Define name for output Excel file. Default is
"output.xls".
-c, --clean Delete input files afterwards, if successful.
-d DELIMITER, --delimiter DELIMITER
Change row delimiter. Default is ",".
-q QUOTECHAR, --quotechar QUOTECHAR
Change quoting character. Default way of quoting is
"that is, quoted".
-n, --no-type-inference

mode is faster and preserves input data.

Default is "%Y-%m-%d".
-k, --keep-prefix Keep common prefix when building sheet names. Default
is to remove the common prefix of input file names.
