# Lite::Report
[](http://badge.fury.io/rb/lite-report)
[](https://travis-ci.org/drexed/lite-report)
Lite::Report is a library for importing and exporting Ruby and Rails objects to flat files and
vice versa. Usage of the report module has many options so it is best if you check out the specs
to see everything the library can do.
**NOTE:** If you are coming from `ActiveReport`, please read the [port](#port) section.
## Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
```ruby
gem 'lite-report'
```
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install lite-report

* [Array](#array)
* [Hash](#hash)
* [Record](#record)
* [Exporter](#exporter)
* [Stream](#stream)
* [Port](#port)
## Configurations
`rails g lite:report:install` will generate the following file:
`../config/initalizers/lite_report.rb`
Place your default configs in this file.
```ruby
Lite::Report.configure do |config|
config.csv_options = {}
config.data_options = {}
config.import_options = {}
end
```
## Array
```ruby
data = [
['James Jones', 39, 'male', ...],
['Pamela Anderson', 52, 'female', ...],
['Dwayne Wade', 21, 'male', ...]
]
# Convert array of arrays to CSV file
Lite::Report::Array.export(
data,
data_options: {
only: ['Age', 'Sex']
},
csv_options: {
write_headers: true,
headers: ['Name', 'Age', 'Sex', ...]
}
)
# Convert CSV file to an array of arrays
Lite::Report::Array.import(
'path/to/file.csv',
data_options: {
except: ['Age', 'Sex']
},
csv_options: {
return_headers: true,
headers: ['Name', 'Age', 'Sex', ...]
}
)
```
## Hash
```ruby
data = [
{ 'Name' => 'James Jones', 'Age' => 39, 'Sex' => 'male', ...],
{ 'Name' => 'Pamela Anderson', 'Age' => 52, 'Sex' => 'female', ...],
{ 'Name' => 'Dwayne Wade', 'Age' => 21, 'Sex' => 'male', ...]
]
# Convert array of hashes to CSV file
Lite::Report::Hash.export(
data,
data_options: {
only: ['Age', 'Sex']
},
csv_options: {
write_headers: true,
headers: ['Name', 'Age', 'Sex', ...]
}
)
# Convert CSV file to an array of hashes
Lite::Report::Hash.import(
'path/to/file.csv',
data_options: {
except: ['Age', 'Sex']
},
csv_options: {
return_headers: true,
headers: ['Name', 'Age', 'Sex', ...]
}
)
```
## Record
```ruby
data = User.where(age: 20..29)
# Convert array/relation/ransack of records to CSV file
Lite::Report::Record.export(
data,
data_options: {
only: [:age, :sex]
},
csv_options: {
write_headers: true,
headers: ['Name', 'Age', 'Sex', ...]
}
)
# Convert CSV file to an array of records (import options are from Rails `insert_all`)
Lite::Report::Record.import(
'path/to/file.csv',
data_options: {
klass: User,
except: [:age, :sex]
},
import_options: {
unique_by: %w[Name Age]
}
)
```
## Exporter
Use exporters to filter, manipulate, and prepare data before final exportation.
These are very helpful when working with complex datasets.
```ruby
class LimitedExporter < Lite::Report::Exporter
private
def serialize(record)
{
'Id' => record.id,
'Name' => "#{record.first_name} #{record.last_name}",
'Speed' => record.speed.ceil,
'Date' => record.to_s(:short)
}
# - or -
serializer = RecordSerializer.new(record)
serializer.serializable_hash
end
end
raw_data = User.where(age: 20..29)
limited_data = LimitedExporter.call(raw_data)
Lite::Report::Hash.export(limited_data)
```
## Stream
Stream is great option for preventing browser timeouts of downloading large CSV files by chunking
the results via an enumerator.
```ruby
class StreamingController < ApplicationController
def download
headers.delete("Content-Length") # Tell Rack to stream the content
headers["Cache-Control"] = "no-cache" # Don't cache anything from this generated endpoint
headers["Content-Type"] = "text/csv" # Tell the browser this is a CSV file
headers["X-Accel-Buffering"] = "no" # Don't buffer when going through proxy servers
# Make the file download with a specific filename
headers["Content-Disposition"] = "attachment; filename=\"example.csv\""
self.response_body = report_body # Set an Enumerator as the body
response.status = 200 # Set the status to success
end
private
def report_body
Lite::Report::Hash.export(
data,
csv_options: { stream: true }
)
end
end
```
## Port
`Lite::Report` is NOT a compatible port of [ActiveReport](https://github.com/drexed/active_report).
Please read the docs and go through the specs to view many examples.
## Development
After checking out the repo, run `bin/setup` to install dependencies. Then, run `rake spec` to run the tests. You can also run `bin/console` for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
To install this gem onto your local machine, run `bundle exec rake install`. To release a new version, update the version number in `version.rb`, and then run `bundle exec rake release`, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the `.gem` file to [rubygems.org](https://rubygems.org).
