Readme
Simple Extractor on Sheets (or SEOS) is an extraction tool focused on Google Sheet data scraping. It uses Google's Python API client to access those data; this allows the library to access on a lower level functions defined by Google without the need of using another Sheets abstraction.
Seos features are put below and their status if they're well-tested using PyTest.
| Feature | Status |
|---|---|
| Connection to a Google Sheet given an OAuth credentials file and Sheet ID |  |
| Extraction on a sheet with a defined scope | |
| Sheet name switching | |
# if using poetry
# highly recommended
poetry add seos
# also works with standard pip
pip install seos
Seos uses APIs defined by Google to access Sheets data; but the idea is that developing with Seos should be understandable when connecting to a data and changing contexts; e.g. change in Sheet Name or change in scope.
The initial step would be to pass a credentials file and the sheet ID as an entrypoint to the data. It assumes that you have a credentials file taken from Google Cloud in JSON format.
from seos import Seos
extractor = Seos(
credentials_file="./credentials.json"
spreadsheet_id="<SPREADSHEET-ID>"
)
Once an extractor context is created, we can then define the sheet name and scope then executing extract if you're happy with the parameters.
extractor.sheet_name = "Report - June 1, 1752"
extractor.scope = "A1:D1"
extractor.extract()
With this, changing the scope and the sheet name will act as a cursor for your sheet data. We can get anything from the sheet just by changing the scope.
extractor.sheet_name = "Report - June 1, 1752"
extractor.scope = "A1:D" # get all from A1 until end of column D
extractor.extract()
We can even do sheet switching if necessary for data that contains several contexts.
extractor.sheet_name = "Report - June 1, 1752"
extractor.scope = "A1:D"
extractor.extract()
extractor.sheet_name = "Report - June 2, 1752"
extractor.scope = "B5:G5"
extractor.extract()
