# Overview
|
|
|
|
PocketBase data import tools for CSV and JSON files made using
|
|
[PocketBase JS SDK](https://github.com/pocketbase/js-sdk).
|
|
|
|
Automatically creates typed PocketBase collection and populates it with data.
|
|
|
|
Columns conflicting with PocketBase's autogenerated system fields (`id`,
|
|
`created`, `updated`; case-insensitive check, target column name's case is not
|
|
affected) are prefixed with `_`.
|
|
|
|
## Types
|
|
|
|
`pocketbase-import` detects types using regular expressions. Currently supported
|
|
PocketBase types are:
|
|
|
|
- `Bool`
|
|
- `Number`
|
|
- `Plain text`
|
|
- `Email`
|
|
- `DateTime`
|
|
- `JSON`
|
|
|
|
# Configuration
|
|
Install the latest [Deno runtime](https://deno.land/) to run the scripts.
|
|
|
|
In the root directory create `.env` file with the following environment
|
|
variables:
|
|
|
|
- `ADMIN_EMAIL` (required) - superadmin email
|
|
- `ADMIN_PASSWORD` (required) - superadmin password
|
|
- `POCKETBASE_URL` (optional) - PocketBase app URL, defaults to local instance
|
|
|
|
Place your import files inside of `input` directory.
|
|
|
|

## Examples
|
|
|
|
Basic import (root directory):
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
deno run csv.ts --input=example.csv
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Import without permission prompts and with `_id` column as text:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
deno run --allow-read --allow-env --allow-net csv.ts --input=example.csv --id
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Import with custom parser options (you need to adjust `example.csv`):
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
deno run csv.ts --input=example.csv --delimiter=";" --quote="~" --lf
|
|
```
