Move 2D data structures between Python and Google spreadsheet

GSmatrix

Move 2D data structures between Python and Google spreadsheet. A high-level interface.

Example

import MatrixSpreadsheet as ms
m = ms.MatrixSpreadsheet('your_email','your_passwd','NameofExistingSpreadSheet')
data = [[1,2],[3,4]]
m.Store(data,'Sheet 1',(1,3))
new_data = m.Read('Sheet 1',position_=(1,3),rows_=2)
assert (new_data == data).all()

In details:

Import the module

import MatrixSpreadsheet as ms

Initialize the object with your username and password and the name of an existing worksheet.

m = ms.MatrixSpreadsheet('your_email','your_passwd','NameofExistingSpreadSheet')

Create sample data. At the moment both numeric and string data can be written, but only numeric data can be read.

data = [[1,2],[3,4]]

Store the data in the (new or existing) sheet named 'Sheet 1', starting at row number 1 and column 3.

m.Store(data,'Sheet 1',(1,3))

Read 2 rows of data from sheet named 'Sheet 1', starting at row number 1 and column 3. The number of columns will be automatically determined to be the maximum sensible.

new_data = m.Read('Sheet 1',position_=(1,3),rows_=2)

And be surprised:

assert (new_data == data).all()
