This is a Ruby 1.8/1.9 library to read/write Google Spreadsheet.

= How to install

$ sudo gem install google-spreadsheet-ruby

Note that gimite-google-spreadsheet-ruby at gems.github.com is no longer updated, because github stopped hosting it.

= How to use

Example:

require "rubygems"
require "google_spreadsheet"

Logs in.

You can also use OAuth. See document of GoogleSpreadsheet.login_with_oauth for details.

session = GoogleSpreadsheet.login("username@gmail.com", "mypassword")

First worksheet of http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=pz7XtlQC-PYx-jrVMJErTcg&hl=en

ws = session.spreadsheet_by_key("pz7XtlQC-PYx-jrVMJErTcg").worksheets[0]

Gets content of A2 cell.

p ws[2, 1] #==> "hoge"

Changes content of cells. Changes are not sent to the server until you call ws.save().

ws[2, 1] = "foo"
ws[2, 2] = "bar"
ws.save()

Dumps all cells.

for row in 1..ws.num_rows
for col in 1..ws.num_cols
p ws[row, col]
end
end

Yet another way to do so.

p ws.rows #==> [["fuga", ""], ["foo", "bar]]

Reloads the worksheet to get changes by other clients.

ws.reload()
