That worked great! Thanks for clearing up the idiomatic usage. I have
not quite wrapped my head around it yet, but look forward to learning
more.
For the record, here's the working code:
#TODO move require and plant class to helper
#DONE do not use eval if possible -- Possible thanks to Matt Jones on
ruby-forum.com
require 'FasterCSV'
class Plant
def self.grow (model, filename, headers = true)
Kernel.const_get(model).delete_all
table = FasterCSV.table(filename, {
:headers => headers,
:header_converters => :symbol,
:col_sep => "\t" # need the double quotes
})
table.each do |row|
yield(row)
end
end
end
Plant.grow("Business", File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), 'vendor.db'))
do |row|
Business.create(
:address => row[:vendoraddress],
:city => row[:vendorcity],
:domain_name => row[:vendordomainname].to_s.gsub(/^(www.)+([^
]*).*/, '\2'),
:email_general => row[:vendoremail],
:fax => row[:faxnumber],
:iadm_member => row[:iadm],
:name => row[:vendorname],
:old_vendorid => row[:vendorid],
:phone => row[:vendorphone],
:sales_tax_rate => row[:vendorsalestax],
:zip_code => row[:vendorzipcode]
)
end
