Installable with the Extension Manager

Description

This extension is to be used along with the Batch Import Application, in order to dynamically convert List values to List keys when running a bulk import operation. Imagine that you want for instance do a bulk import of a set of book entries which reference authors represented as pages in the wiki. The input CSV file can contain the full name of authors: these full names will get converted to the XWiki page references corresponding to these full names during the import operation.

How to use

After having installed the Batch Import Application, install this extension if you want list values to be converted to list keys upon import. This transformation will apply automatically to all the imports that are ran while the list post-processor module is installed. If you want to de-activate this behaviour, just uninstall the list post-processor and then use the Batch import application as usual.

Prerequisites & Installation Instructions

We recommend using the Extension Manager to install this extension (Make sure that the text "Installable with the Extension Manager" is displayed at the top right location on this page to know if this extension can be installed with the Extension Manager).

You can also use the manual method which involves dropping the JAR file and all its dependencies into the WEB-INF/lib folder and restarting XWiki.
