Introduction

Make Kenneth Reitz's tablib available to PlominoUtils.

Installation

Include plomino.tablib in the eggs section of your buildout:

eggs =
    ...
    plomino.tablib

When this package is present, the dataset function is available to Plomino formulas.

Examples:

# Create a table from a list of lists:
mytable = dataset([[1,2], [3,4]])

# Create a table and specify headers:
mytable = dataset([[1,2], [3,4]], headers=['col1', 'col2'])

# Create a table from a list of dicts (sets headers):
mytable = dataset([{'col1': 1, 'col2': 2]}, {'col1': 3, 'col2': 4}])

# Get the table as CSV or JSON:
mytable.csv
mytable.json

# Get the table as HTML or Excel:
mytable.html
mytable.xls
