It is a set of ProcessWire modules for importing, manipulating and displaying large (50k+ entries) data sets.
The software was developed for the [Mikes-dictionary] and other Digital Humanities projects.
- import data from CSV and XML sources
- user configurable input <-> field mappings
- on-the-fly field data composition
- supports downloading external resources (files, images)
- purge, extend or overwrite existing data (PW pages and their fields)
- handle page references and option fields
- fairly low resource requirements (uses Tasker to execute long-running jobs)
- and many more (filtering, limits, default values etc.)
See the wiki.
The first version was created in 2017 to import a large XML dataset into ProcessWire pages.
The CSV import sub-module was created in 2018. It was tested to import large dataset containing 200k+ entries and many kinds of references between them.
The CSV + PDF import was developed in 2019 to create a complete digital library using a single CSV upload.
The "github-version" of the software is licensed under MPL 2.0.
