Plugin for Pentaho Data Integration(Kettle) allowing reading and writing of Google Spreadsheets.
- This plugin can currently only read/write to existing spreadsheets/worksheets.
- The first row of a worksheet is always considered the header row and is used to name the fields read.
- Writing to a Worksheet completely replaces existing content.
See Google Spreadsheets API for more limitations on the API.
This plugin uses a mechanism of OAuth 2.0 called Service Accounts. Service accounts were designed for Server to Server authentication.
A Service Account can be created through the Google API Console. The plugin requires the Service Account E-Mail address as well as the Service Account Private Key(.p12) file.
Permissions to read/write specific Spreadsheets are granted by Sharing the Spreadsheet (or containing Drive folder) with the Service Account E-Mail Address.
This Plugin is built with Maven.
$ git clone [email protected]:GlobalTechnology/pdi-google-spreadsheet-plugin.git
$ cd pdi-google-spreadsheet-plugin
$ mvn package
This will produce a Kettle plugin in target/pdi-google-spreadsheet-plugin-{version}.zip.
This file can be extracted into your Pentaho Data Integrations plugin directory.
