# w3id-csv

Attempt to populate https://w3id.org/ .htaccess files from CSV (notably exported from purl.org's database)

`purl_example.csv` is a CSV file with columns as in

[purl.org's mysql table `purls`](https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-perma-id/2015Dec/0005.html)

## Requirements

- Python 3

- Docker / Docker Compose (for running Apache HTTPD)

## Help

```

stain@biggie:~/src/w3id-csv$ python3 cvs2w3id.py --help

usage: cvs2w3id.py [-h] [--output OUTPUT] [--no-header] [--header] [--wipe]

                   CSV

Convert CSV file to .htaccess directories for w3id.org

positional arguments:

  CSV              CSV file to parse

optional arguments:

  -h, --help       show this help message and exit

  --output OUTPUT  Path to populate with .htaccess directories

  --no-header      Do not skip first line of CSV

  --header         Skip first line of CSV

  --wipe           Wipe (any) existing directory

```

## Running

```

stain@biggie:~/src/w3id-csv$ python3 cvs2w3id.py purl_example.csv

example/path/deeper -> http://example.com/redirectedDeeper

example/path -> http://example.com/redirectedPath

```

This generates a series of `.htaccess` files in `build` (or the specified

`--output` folder):

```

stain@biggie:~/src/w3id-csv$ find build/

build/

build/example

build/example/path

build/example/path/deeper

build/example/path/deeper/.htaccess

build/example/path/.htaccess

stain@biggie:~/src/w3id-csv$ cat build/example/path/.htaccess

# Generated by cvs2w3id

RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule ^$ http://example.com/redirectedPath [L,R]

```

## Testing

Either copy `build/` to an Apache HTTPd installation with `mod_rewrite`

installed, or simply run using [Docker Compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/):

    docker-compose up

This will run Apache HTTPd and generate

the redirection tree at http://localhost:8087/

(or equivalent virtual machine host on Windows/OS X)
