CsvImport

This Rails plugin provides a controller method called each_csv_row and an accompanying helper called csv_form.

By default, when each_csv_row is called, any exceptions raised in the block will be rescued. The rows that triggered the exceptions will then be displayed in a table as part of the output from csv_form.

You can turn off rescuing by calling each_csv_row(false).

Big thanks to Doorkeeper for their work updating this plugin to Rails 3.

Compatibility

• Ruby 1.9
• Rails 3

  end
