DESCRIPTION

Import raw (non-object) data to a DBI table.

METHODS

data_from_file( $filename )

Runs raw_data_from_file( $filename ) from SPOPS::Import to read a serialized Perl data structure from $filename, then sends the arrayref to assign_raw_data() and returns the result.

data_from_fh( $filehandle )

Runs raw_data_from_fh( $filename ) from SPOPS::Import to read a serialized Perl data structure from $filehandle, then sends the arrayref to assign_raw_data() and returns the result.

assign_raw_data( \@( \%metadata, @data ) )

Assigns the data 'table' and 'fields' from \%metadata to the import object, then the remainder of the data to the 'data' property.

The additional metadata is stored under the 'extra_metadata' property of the import object.
