Introduction

spsbot is a Python package that automates the population of a spreadsheet/sqlite database from data extracted from a sqlite database/spreadsheet. To this end, it comes with two Python scripts sps2db.py and db2sps.py.

Both programs are driven by a configuration file which specifies what data should be extracted and how to store it in the designated target.

While this software acknowledges a wide variety of spreadsheet formats (including csv, ods, xls, xlsx, etc.), only sqlite3 databases can be used.

Installation

Download the software cloning the git repository with the following command:

$ git clone https://github.com/clinaresl/spsbot.git

a directory called spsbot will be automatically created. Go to that directory and execute the script setup.py as indicated below:

$ cd spsbot
$ sudo python3 ./setup.py install

In case this software is being reinstalled, make sure to add --force to overwrite the previous package.
