Dear Stackoverflow community,
I am having troubles merging 2 separate scripts into a single one. Both are working fine if run individually, but not if both are present in a single file. The first script imports CSV into my spreadsheet to a temporary sheet called "Imported". The second script imports rows from "Imported" to the permanent sheet called "Main" and then deletes the temporary sheet.
I have tried to merge both scripts under the same function, but that only gives as an output "Imported" sheet without populating the main one. Same happens if I create a new function, which first calls function import CSV and then calls function import to Main.
For CSV import, I am using the following script, sourced from here:
function importCSV() {
var fSource = DriveApp.getFolderById('folder_id_removed');
// reports_folder_id = id of folder where csv reports are saved
var fi = fSource.getFilesByName('data.csv');
// latest report file
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.openById('spreadsheet_id_removed');
// data_sheet_id = id of spreadsheet that holds the data to be updated with new report data
if ( fi.hasNext() ) { // proceed if "report.csv" file exists in the reports folder
var file = fi.next();
var csv = file.getBlob().getDataAsString();
var csvData = CSVToArray(csv); // see below for CSVToArray function
var newsheet = ss.insertSheet('Imported'); // create a 'NEWDATA' sheet to store imported data
// loop through csv data array and insert (append) as rows into 'NEWDATA' sheet
for ( var i=0, lenCsv=csvData.length; i<lenCsv; i++ ) {
newsheet.getRange(i+1, 1, 1, csvData[i].length).setValues(new Array(csvData[i]));
}
}
};
function CSVToArray( strData, strDelimiter ) {
// Check to see if the delimiter is defined. If not,
// then default to COMMA.
strDelimiter = (strDelimiter || ";");
// Create a regular expression to parse the CSV values.
var objPattern = new RegExp(
(
// Delimiters.
"(\\" + strDelimiter + "|\\r?\\n|\\r|^)" +
// Quoted fields.
"(?:\"([^\"]*(?:\"\"[^\"]*)*)\"|" +
// Standard fields.
"([^\"\\" + strDelimiter + "\\r\\n]*))"
),
"gi"
);
// Create an array to hold our data. Give the array
// a default empty first row.
var arrData = [[]];
// Create an array to hold our individual pattern
// matching groups.
var arrMatches = null;
// Keep looping over the regular expression matches
// until we can no longer find a match.
while (arrMatches = objPattern.exec( strData )){
// Get the delimiter that was found.
var strMatchedDelimiter = arrMatches[ 1 ];
// Check to see if the given delimiter has a length
// (is not the start of string) and if it matches
// field delimiter. If id does not, then we know
// that this delimiter is a row delimiter.
if (
strMatchedDelimiter.length &&
(strMatchedDelimiter != strDelimiter)
){
// Since we have reached a new row of data,
// add an empty row to our data array.
arrData.push( [] );
}
// Now that we have our delimiter out of the way,
// let's check to see which kind of value we
// captured (quoted or unquoted).
if (arrMatches[ 2 ]){
// We found a quoted value. When we capture
// this value, unescape any double quotes.
var strMatchedValue = arrMatches[ 2 ].replace(
new RegExp( "\"\"", "g" ),
"\""
);
} else {
// We found a non-quoted value.
var strMatchedValue = arrMatches[ 3 ];
}
// Now that we have our value string, let's add
// it to the data array.
arrData[ arrData.length - 1 ].push( strMatchedValue );
}
// Return the parsed data.
return( arrData );
};
To import rows from "Imported" to "Main", I have created this script:
function importRows() {
var ss=SpreadsheetApp.getActive();
var sh=ss.getSheetByName('Imported');
var des=ss.getSheetByName('Main');
var src=sh.getRange('A2:F500');
var vA=src.getValues();
for(var i=0;i<vA.length;i++) {
if(vA[i].join("")) {
des.appendRow(vA[i]);
}
}
ss.deleteSheet(sh)
}
I suspect that some minor change is required to CSV import script, but unfortunately, I am not experienced enough to find the answer myself.
Could anyone help me create a single script containing both of those functions? I will appreciate any help regarding this matter.
