Importer for Laravel 4
======================

[](#importer-for-laravel-4)

Importer can import csv files and map column to fields in database based on config file.

```
'customers'     => [
    'file'      => 'customers.csv',
    'model'     => 'user',
    'unique'    => 'fullname',
    'mapping'   => [
        'fullname'      => 'Full Name',
        'email'         => 'E-mail',
        'created_at'    => 'Signup Date',
    ],
    'rules'     => [
        'fullname' => 'required',
        'email' => 'required|email|unique:users',
        'username' => 'required',
    ]
],
'kids'          => [
    'file'      => 'appointments.csv',
    'model'     => 'kid',
    'unique'    => 'fullname',
    'mapping'   => [
        'fullname'      => 'Kid Name',
        'parent_id'     => [
            'column'    => 'Full Name',
            'type'      => 'reference',
            'model'     => 'user',
            'foreign_ref'   => 'id',
            'foreign_field' => 'fullname',
            'foreign_data'  => []
        ]
    ],
    'rules'     => []
],

```

The idea is that you can just set these settings and then call $importer->import() to get everything imported.

### Installation

[](#installation)

Add package to the `composer.json` file

```
"require": {
    "qplot/importer": "dev-master"

```

Then run composer update,

```

```

Add provider `app/config/app.php` file

```
'providers' => array(
    'QPlot\Importer\ImporterServiceProvider'

```

To change settings, you need to first publish config file,

```
php artisan config:publish qplot/importer

```
