Introduction
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
This part of the documentation covers all the interfaces of Tablib.
|
|
Tablib is a format-agnostic tabular dataset library, written in Python.
|
|
It allows you to Pythonically import, export, and manipulate tabular data sets.
|
|
Advanced features include segregation, dynamic columns, tags/filtering, and
|
|
seamless format import/export.
|

|
Philosophy
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
Tablib was developed with a few :pep:`20` idioms in mind.
|
|
|
|
#. Beautiful is better than ugly.
|
|
#. Explicit is better than implicit.
|
|
#. Simple is better than complex.
|
|
#. Complex is better than complicated.
|
|
#. Readability counts.
|
|
|
|
All contributions to Tablib should keep these important rules in mind.
