:mod:`waeup.sirp.utils.csvimport` -- CSV file importers

.. module:: waeup.sirp.utils.csvimport

Components for importing CSV files.

:Test-Layer: unit

Because CSV importers make use of components registered with the Zope
Component Architecture (ZCA), we first have to grok the `waeup`
package. This happens automatically in real-world use:

    >>> import grok
    >>> grok.testing.grok('waeup')

Importing from CSV files
------------------------

We create a facultycontainer, which we want to populate with some CSV
data afterwards:

    >>> from waeup.sirp.university.facultycontainer import FacultyContainer
    >>> mycontainer = FacultyContainer()

Next, we create a CSV file we want to import:

    >>> open('myfaculties.csv', 'wb').write(
    ... """code,review_state,title,title_prefix
    ... AGR,static,Agriculture,faculty
    ... ART,static,Arts,faculty
    ... DEN,static,Dentistry,faculty
    ... """)

We get a suitable importer by asking for a multi-adapter to
our file and IWAeUPCSVExporter (see section above, the importexport
module and the `waeup.sirp.csvfile` README for details):

    >>> from waeup.sirp.csvfile import getCSVFile
    >>> from waeup.sirp.interfaces import IWAeUPCSVImporter
    >>> from zope.component import getMultiAdapter
    >>> importer = getMultiAdapter((getCSVFile('myfaculties.csv'), 
    ...                             mycontainer),
    ...                            IWAeUPCSVImporter)
    >>> importer
    <waeup.sirp.utils.csvimport.FacultyCSVImporter object at 0x...>

This importer complies with the IWAeUPCSVImporter interface:

    >>> from waeup.sirp.utils.csvimport import FacultyCSVImporter
    >>> IWAeUPCSVImporter.implementedBy(FacultyCSVImporter)
    True

    >>> from zope.interface.verify import verifyClass
    >>> verifyClass(IWAeUPCSVImporter, FacultyCSVImporter)
    True

The container is still empty:

    >>> len(mycontainer)
    0

Now we can easily import the data:

    >>> importer.doImport()

The container is now filled:

    >>> len(mycontainer)
    3

    >>> print [(x.code, x.title) for x in list(mycontainer.values())]
    [('AGR', 'Agriculture'), ('ART', 'Arts'), ('DEN', 'Dentistry')]


Clean up:

    >>> import os
    >>> os.unlink('myfaculties.csv')
