pipulate v0.2.22 - Free and Open Source SEO Software (Automate Google Sheets)

  • Do you make reports using Google Analytics, Search Console and other sources?

  • Are you using expensive plug-ins or products to keep these reports updated?

  • Do you feel all this stuff should be free if you could just wire it up?

Here’s the basic API-invocation:

cl, df = gs.pipulate(tab, rows, cols)
# Do stuff to df
gs.populate(tab, cl, df)

This loads the rectangular region you defined with the rows and columns into memory in a way where you can treat it a lot like a tab in Microsoft Excel or like a SQL table. You can manipulate the pandas “DataFrame” (abbreviated as df), and then push the changes back out to the Google Sheet. For example:

import pipulate as gs
sheet = gs.key('119mnC8Day68KexU_yv7J_wfA3p7iZeXa0YEtmg1Igu4')
tab = sheet.worksheet('Sheet1')
cl, df = gs.pipulate(tab, rows=(1, 5), cols=('A', 'C'))
df['A'] = 'foo'
df['B'] = 'bar'
df['C'] = df['A'] + df['B']
gs.populate(tab, cl, df)  # Watch the sheet update :)

If you use Jupyter Notebook (from the Anaconda install), you can execute these commands line-by-line in your browser and interactively play around with the data. You can install Pipulate from a Jupyter Notebook with this code:

import sys
!{sys.executable} -m pip install pipulate

And that’s it. What you do with the Pandas DataFrame (df) is up to you. All Pipulate does is pull down the rectangular cell-range you define and plop it into df. You then can modify the df however you like (refer to Pandas examples). So long as you keep the rows x columns shape the same as what you selected, you can push the altered data back into the Sheet. Once you’re happy with your script, you can copy/paste it into a .py file and schedule it with a standard Linux scheduler.
