[Loris-dev] Importing spreadsheet/csv to LORIS

[Eli Johnson]

Hi all,

I am interested in importing large datasets currently saved as csv or xlsx
into our instance of LORIS. I know that some instruments (like the
Vineland) are able to parse a text file and map the variables from the file
to the corresponding MySQL field in the database. Are there tools already
out there or ideas for how to implement this for a csv containing multiple
candidates and visits? Does LORIS contain any built in functions in it's
libraries that could help with this?

I wanted to check what already exists or if anyone is already working on
this before writing something custom. I'm also happy to collaborate if
there is already something in the works for this.

Thanks,
