Problem/Motivation

I want to import ODT files as articles. Is Entities import a good starting point?

Proposed resolution

Have a content edit page option to select an ODT file for import to fill out the page.

Remaining tasks

When I select Create content, Article, have a button to Import ODT. I guess this needs some sort of entity type definition. I have not looked far enough into the code to understand if this would fit.

Is the excel sheet used to import data into a content page or is it a list of files to import?

If it is a list of files to import, can I just select one from the content edit page?

User interface changes

The add entity type would have something like Open Document Text connected to article. The edit Article page would have an Import ODT button.

Data model changes

I am currently using PHPMyAdmin to look at the changes your code makes to the database but it appears to be buried on a blob attached to a key value pair.

    @peterx, As of now, It will support only excel and csv file. To import any content from the excel, we have to edit the import type that has been created already and click the button Import ODT button(If we chose content type as ODT) and upload the files to import.

    The main purpose of this module is, Importing the data from the given Excel sheet to content type or taxonomy.

    Please check the sample excel sheet available in doc folder for more clarity. We have to follow the same structure in the excel to import properly.

    Note: All the excel fields mention in the excel should be match with content type or taxonomy fields.

    For more details, Please check the configuration section in the below url.
