-##  DataShift 
-
-Provides tools to shift data between Ruby, external applications, files and ActiveRecord.
-
-### Features
-
-Map Active Record models and associations to files.
-
-Import and Export ActiveRecord based data through .xls or CSV  files.
-
-Create, parse and use Excel/OpenOffice (.xls) documents dynamically from Ruby.
-
-High level rake tasks provided.
-
-Spree E-Commerce specific loaders and rake tasks provided enabling import/export of all data including Products with
-complex associations such as Options/Variants and Images.
-
-Example spreadsheets, fully documented with comments for each column.
-
-
-## Installation
-
-Add gem 'datashift' to your Gemfile/bundle, or install the latest gem as usual :
-
-    `gem install datashift`
-
-To use :
-
-    gem 'datashift'
-    require 'datashift'
-
-To pull the tasks in, add this call to your Rakefile :
-
-     DataShift ::load_tasks
-
-N.B - To use the Excel loader, OLE and Excel are NOT required, however
-JRuby is required, since it uses Java's Apache POI under the hood to process .xls files.
-
-Guards are provided, and used internally, for mixed Ruby setups. Can be used like :
-
-    if(DataShift::Guards::jruby? )
-        ..do something with Excel
-    else
-        ..do something with CSV
-    end
-
-## Active Record - Import/Export
-
-Provides wrappers and rake tasks for importing/exporting data to DBs, from various sources,
-including csv and .xls files (Excel/Open Office)
-
-Simplifies the exchange of data, between such files and any active record supported database.
-
-A core feature of DataShift is the MethodMapper, which provides features for collecting
-reflection information from ActiveRecord models (all different associations, including join tables with many-to-many relationships).
-
-A full picture of all possible operations on a class can be created very easily, for example ona  Blog model :
-
-    MethodMapper.find_operators( Blog )
-
-This then allows Import/Export to be achieved, by mapping the file's header and column data to MethodMapper's operators
-(i.e. the model's attributes and associations).
-
-Here we retrieve the method details for a column name from a file, "Blog Date"
-
-    MethodMapper.find_method_detail( Blog, "Blog Date" )
-
-Loaders can use this method lookup functionality, to find the correct association for a column heading,
-and populate AR object with row data.
-
-This means data can be mapped to any model without any further coding. Generators are also supplied to export
-a models attributes and associations to files, thus providing template spreadsheets that any user can fill out.
-
-MethodMapper also stores column type information so the raw file data can be provided as is,
-and whenever possible, under the bonnet the data will be cast to correct DB type.
-
-Here we show how a column name from a file, "Blog Date", can be mapped to Assign a stringified date, to the blog_date column, on a new Blog object :
-
-    MethodMapper.find_method_detail( Blog, "Blog Date" ).assign( Blog.new, "Sat Jul 23 2011" )
-
-Because it's based on reflection against the model, can build complex relationships between tables during import/export, 
-and extending data files with new columns need not require any additional Ruby coding.
-
-New columns can simply be added to the Excel/Open Office spreadsheet, or CSV file, setting the new
-attribute or association name in the header row. 
-
-
-The Loader attempts to handle various human read-able forms of column names.
-
-For example, given an association on the model called, product_properties, will successfully load
-from columns with headings such as 'product_properties', 'Product Properties', 'ProductProperties' 'product properties' etc
-
-For has_many associations, either multiple columns can be used,
- or multiple values can be specified in a single column using suitable delimiters.
-
-Modular - so complex associations/mappings that require non generic lookups, can be handled by extending the loader engine.
-
-Original focus was on support for the Open Source Spree e-commerce project, so includes specific loaders and rake tasks
-for loading Spree Products, and associated data such as Product Variants, and Images.
-
-## Template Generation and Export
-
-Template generation tasks can be used to export a model's definition as column headings to CSV or .xls.
-These can be provided to developers or business users, as a template for data collection and then loading.
-
-Export tasks can be used to export of a model's definition and any existing data stored in the database.
-
-This data can be exported directly to CSV or Excel/OpenOffice spreadsheets.
-
-
-## Example Spreadsheets
-    
-  A number of example Spreadsheets with headers and comments, can be found in the spec/fixtures directory.
-
-  Extensive Spree samples - including .xls and csv versions for simple Products or complex Products with multiple
-  taxons, variants properties etc - can be found in the spec/fixtures/spree subdirectory.
-
-  Column headings contain comments with full descriptions and instructions on syntax. 
-
-
-## Features
-
-- *High level wrappers around applications including Excel and Word
-
-  Quickly and easily access common enterprise applications through Ruby
-
-  Wrapper around MS Excel File format, acheived via Apache POI under JRuby, so not restricted to Windows
-  and Excel does not need to be installed.
-
-  The required POI jars are already included.
-
-- *Direct Excel export*
-
-  Excel/OpenOffice spreadsheets are heavily used in many sectors, so direct support makes it
-  easier and quicker to migrate your client's data into a Rails/ActiveRecord project.
-
-  No need to save to CSV or map to YAML.
-  
-- *Semi-Smart Name Lookup*
-
-  Includes helper classes that find and store details of all possible associations on an AR class.
-  Given a user supplied name, attempts to find the requested association.
-
-  Example usage, load from a file or spreadsheet where the column names are only
-  an approximation of the actual associations, so given 'Product Properties' heading,
-  finds real association 'product_properties' to send or call on the AR object
-
-- *Associations*
-
-  Can handle 'belongs_to, 'has_many' and 'has_one' associations, including assignment of multiple objects
-  via either multiple columns, or via specially delimited entry in a single (column). See Details section.
-
-  Supports delegated attributes.
-
-- *Rake Tasks*
-
-  High level Rake tasks are provided, only required to supply model class, and file location :
-
-    jruby -S rake datashift:import:excel model=MusicTrack input=MyTrackListing.xls
-
-
-- *Spree Rake Tasks*
-
-  Specific Rake tasks are also provided for Spree loading - currently supports Product with associations,
-  and Image loading.
-
-    jruby -S rake datashift:spree:products input=C:\MyProducts.xls
-
-
-  **Product loading from Excel files specifically requires JRuby (But not Excel or OLE)**.
-
-
-- *Seamless Spree Image loading can be achieved by ensuring SKU or class Name features in Image filename.
-
-  Lookup is performed either via the SKU being prepended to the image name, or by the image name being equal to the **name attribute** of the klass in question.
-
-  Images can be attached to any class defined with a suitable association. The class to use can be configured in rake task via
-  parameter klass=Xyz.
-
-  In the Spree tasks, this defaults to Product, so attempts to attach Image to a Product via Product SKU or Name.
- 
-  Image loading **does not** specifically require JRuby
-
-  A report is generated in the current working directory detailing any Images in the paths that could not be matched with a Product.
-
-  rake  datashift:spree:images input=C:\images\product_images skip_if_no_assoc=true
-
-  rake  datashift:spree:images input=C:\images\taxon_icons skip_if_no_assoc=true klass=Taxon
-
-## Import to Active Record
-
-### Associations
-
-To perform a lookup for an associated model, the primary column(s) must be supplied, along with required select values for those columns.
-
-A single association column can contain multiple name/value sets, in string form :
-
-  column:lookup_key_1, lookup_key_2,...
-
-So if our Project model has many Categories, we can supply a Category list, which is keyed on the column Category.reference with :
-
-  |Categories|
-
-  reference:category_001,category_002
-
-During loading, a call to find_all_by_reference will be made, picking up the 2 categories with matching references,
- and our Project model will contain those two i.e project.categories = [category_002,category_003]
-
-## Spree Suppprt
-
-### OptionTypes & Variants
-
-When loaded with the Spree specific tasks, spree specific over rides are supported, such as direct s
-support for OptionTypes with values
-
-Any 'Option Types' columns can contain the OptionType to associate with the Product, plus a selection of
-appropriate OptionValues to go with that Type. 
-
-For example, in a single column/row we could supply 2 OptionTypes (named, size & colour), with a selection values
-(such as small, medium etc)
-
-    'Option Types'
-    size:small,medium,large|colour:red,white
-
-If no such OptionType exists, e.g size, then a new one is created with the supplied name.
-
-Next the OptionValues are also parsed, again if no such OptionValue exists, e.g small, then a new one is created with the supplied name.
-
-Lastly a Variant is created on each OptionValue, with price and availaable dates being copied from Master.
-Currently a unique SKU is created by adding an index to the master's sku.
-
-TODO - Enable a hash of attributes to be supplied in association columns to enable more control over creation of associated objects.
-
-### Properties
-
-The properties to associate with this product.
-Properties are for small snippets of text, shared across many products,
-and are for display purposes only.
-
-An optional display value can be supplied to supplement the displayed text.
-
-As for all associations can contain multiple name/value sets in default form :
-
-    Property:display_value|Property:display_value
-
-Example - No values :
-    manufacturer|standard
-
-Example - Display  values :
-    manufacturer:somebody else plc|standard:ISOBlah21
-
-## TODO
-
-  - Add direct Image loading to Spree  i.e should be able to specify just path in a column .. "/images/red-tshirt.jpg"
-
-  - Smart sorting of column processing order ....
-
-  - Does not currently ensure mandatory columns (for valid?) processed first.

+
+Many example Spreadsheets provided, fully documented with comments for each column.
+
+
+## Installation
+
+Add gem 'datashift' to your Gemfile/bundle, or install the latest gem as usual :
+
+    `gem install datashift`
+
+To use :
+
+    gem 'datashift'
+    require 'datashift'

+
+N.B - To use the Excel loader, OLE and Excel are NOT required, however

+
+Guards are provided, and used internally, for mixed Ruby setups. Can be used like :
+
+    if(DataShift::Guards::jruby? )
+        ..do something with Excel
+    else
+        ..do something with CSV
+    end
+
+## Active Record - Import/Export
+
+Provides high level rake tasks for importing data via ActiveRecord models into a DB,
+ from various sources, currently csv or .xls files (Excel/Open Office)
+
+
+    bundle exec rake datashift:import:excel model=BlogPost input=BlogPostImport.xls verbose=true 
+
+
+The library can be easily extended with Loaders to deal with non trivial cases required to exchange data between
+ such files and any active record supported database.
+
+Spree loaders are an example, these illustrate over riding processing for specific columns with
+complicated lookup requirements.
+
+A core feature of DataShift is the MethodMapper, which provides features for collecting
+reflection information from ActiveRecord models (all different associations, including join tables with many-to-many relationships).
+
+A full picture of all possible operations on a class can be created very easily, for example ona  Blog model :
+
+    MethodMapper.find_operators( Blog )
+
+This then allows Import/Export to be achieved, by mapping the file's header and column data to MethodMapper's operators
+(i.e. the model's attributes and associations).
+
+Here we retrieve the method details for a column name from a file, "Blog Date"
+
+    MethodMapper.find_method_detail( Blog, "Blog Date" )
+
+Loaders can use this method lookup functionality, to find the correct association for a column heading,
+and populate AR object with row data.
+
+This means data can be mapped to any model without any further coding. Generators are also supplied to export
+a models attributes and associations to files, thus providing template spreadsheets that any user can fill out.
+
+MethodMapper also stores column type information so the raw file data can be provided as is,
+and whenever possible, under the bonnet the data will be cast to correct DB type.
+
+Here we show how a column name from a file, "Blog Date", can be mapped to Assign a stringified date, to the blog_date column, on a new Blog object :
+
+    MethodMapper.find_method_detail( Blog, "Blog Date" ).assign( Blog.new, "Sat Jul 23 2011" )
+
+Because it's based on reflection against the model, can build complex relationships between tables during import/export, 
+and extending data files with new columns need not require any additional Ruby coding.
+
+New columns can simply be added to the Excel/Open Office spreadsheet, or CSV file, setting the new
+attribute or association name in the header row. 
+
+
+The Loader attempts to handle various human read-able forms of column names.
+
+For example, given an association on the model called, product_properties, will successfully load
+from columns with headings such as 'product_properties', 'Product Properties', 'ProductProperties' 'product properties' etc
+
+For has_many associations, either multiple columns can be used,
+ or multiple values can be specified in a single column using suitable delimiters.
+
+Modular - so complex associations/mappings that require non generic lookups, can be handled by extending the loader engine.
+
+Original focus was on support for the Open Source Spree e-commerce project, so includes specific loaders and rake tasks
+for loading Spree Products, and associated data such as Product Variants, and Images.
+
+## Template Generation and Export
+
+Template generation tasks can be used to export a model's definition as column headings to CSV or .xls.
+These can be provided to developers or business users, as a template for data collection and then loading.
+
+Export tasks can be used to export of a model's definition and any existing data stored in the database.
+
+This data can be exported directly to CSV or Excel/OpenOffice spreadsheets.
+
+
+## Example Spreadsheets
+    
+  A number of example Spreadsheets with headers and comments, can be found in the spec/fixtures directory.
+
+  Extensive Spree samples - including .xls and csv versions for simple Products or complex Products with multiple
+  taxons, variants properties etc - can be found in the spec/fixtures/spree subdirectory.
+
+  Column headings contain comments with full descriptions and instructions on syntax. 
+
+

+  Specific Rake tasks are also provided for Spree loading - currently supports Product with associations,
+  and Image loading.
+
+    jruby -S rake datashift:spree:products input=C:\MyProducts.xls
+
+
+  **Product loading from Excel files specifically requires JRuby (But not Excel or OLE)**.

+
+  rake  datashift:spree:images input=C:\images\product_images skip_if_no_assoc=true
+
+  rake  datashift:spree:images input=C:\images\taxon_icons skip_if_no_assoc=true klass=Taxon
+
+## Import to Active Record
+
+### Associations
+
+To perform a lookup for an associated model, the primary column(s) must be supplied, along with required select values for those columns.
+
+A single association column can contain multiple name/value sets, in string form :
+
+  column:lookup_key_1, lookup_key_2,...
+
+So if our Project model has many Categories, we can supply a Category list, which is keyed on the column Category.reference with :
+
+  |Categories|
+
+  reference:category_001,category_002
+
+During loading, a call to find_all_by_reference will be made, picking up the 2 categories with matching references,
+ and our Project model will contain those two i.e project.categories = [category_002,category_003]
+
+## Spree Suppprt
+
+### OptionTypes & Variants
+
+When loaded with the Spree specific tasks, spree specific over rides are supported, such as direct s
+support for OptionTypes with values
+
+Any 'Option Types' columns can contain the OptionType to associate with the Product, plus a selection of
+appropriate OptionValues to go with that Type. 
+
+For example, in a single column/row we could supply 2 OptionTypes (named, size & colour), with a selection values
+(such as small, medium etc)
+
+    'Option Types'
+    size:small,medium,large|colour:red,white
+
+If no such OptionType exists, e.g size, then a new one is created with the supplied name.
+
+Next the OptionValues are also parsed, again if no such OptionValue exists, e.g small, then a new one is created with the supplied name.
+
+Lastly a Variant is created on each OptionValue, with price and availaable dates being copied from Master.
+Currently a unique SKU is created by adding an index to the master's sku.
+
+TODO - Enable a hash of attributes to be supplied in association columns to enable more control over creation of associated objects.
+
+### Properties
+
+The properties to associate with this product.
+Properties are for small snippets of text, shared across many products,
+and are for display purposes only.
+
+An optional display value can be supplied to supplement the displayed text.
+
+As for all associations can contain multiple name/value sets in default form :
+
+    Property:display_value|Property:display_value
+
+Example - No values :
+    manufacturer|standard
+
+Example - Display  values :
+    manufacturer:somebody else plc|standard:ISOBlah21
+
+## TODO
+
+  - Add direct Image loading to Spree  i.e should be able to specify just path in a column .. "/images/red-tshirt.jpg"
+
+  - Smart sorting of column processing order ....
+
+  - Does not currently ensure mandatory columns (for valid?) processed first.
+
+  - Look at implementing import/export API using something like https://github.com/ianwhite/orm_adapter 
+    rather than active record, so we can support additional ORMs
+
+  - Create separate Spree extension to support import/export via the admin gui
