Perl wrappers to read CSV files

Presentation

These scripts can be used for LIST and GET operations with the Executable plugin. They read a CSV file and provide to LSC Executable plugin the wanted entries.

Installation

Scripts are available in the scripts/ directory of Executable plugin source, and shipped with packages.

You need those prerequisites on the system running the scripts:

  • Perl
  • Perl Text::CSV module
  • Perl Net::LDAP module

Scripts must be executable.

Configuration

List script

Declare list script in the plugin service:

  <exec:listScript>/var/lib/lsc/lsc-executable-csv2ldif-list.pl</exec:listScript>

Get script

Declare get script in the plugin service:

  <exec:getScript>/var/lib/lsc/lsc-executable-csv2ldif-get.pl</exec:getScript>

Variables

Use plugin services variables to declare the CSV parameters:

  <exec:variables>
    <entry><key>CSV_FILE</key><value>/tmp/sample.csv</value></entry>
    <entry><key>CSV_DELIMITER</key><value>;</value></entry>
    <entry><key>CSV_PIVOT_FIELD</key><value>uid</value></entry>
  </exec:variables>

Parameters are:

  • CSV_FILE: Path to CSV file
  • CSV_DELIMITER: CSV fields delimiter. By default: ,
  • CSV_PIVOT_FIELD: Which field is the pivot. By default: id

NOTE: Only one pivot is managed for the moment
