Google Sheets Mapper
A library for getting data from Google Sheets API v4
Installation
Package can be added using yarn:
yarn add google-sheets-mapper
Or, use NPM:
npm install google-sheets-mapper
UMD build available on unpkg.
Usage
- Go to Google Cloud Console to get API key for Google Sheets API.
- Create a Google Sheet and add some data. See example sheet.
- Share it with "Anyone with this link can view".
- Get sheet id from url of the sheet.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/[THIS-IS-THE-SHEET-ID]/
- I suggest adding API key and sheet id to
.env
file
Examples
Get data from all sheets inside the spreadsheet
import { fetchGoogleSheetsData } from 'google-sheets-mapper';
const getData = async () => {
try {
return await fetchGoogleSheetsData({
apiKey: process.env.REACT_APP_GOOGLE_API_KEY,
sheetId: process.env.REACT_APP_GOOGLE_SHEETS_ID,
});
} catch (error) {
console.error(error);
}
};
Get data from specific sheets inside the spreadsheet
Don't use single quotes on sheet names, they will be removed because when using space in sheet name it will be returned wrapped with single quotes and plugin will remove them for clean string id.
import { fetchGoogleSheetsData } from 'google-sheets-mapper';
const getData = async () => {
try {
return await fetchGoogleSheetsData({
apiKey: process.env.REACT_APP_GOOGLE_API_KEY,
sheetId: process.env.REACT_APP_GOOGLE_SHEETS_ID,
sheetsOptions: [{ id: 'Sheet1' }],
});
} catch (error) {
console.error(error);
}
};
API Documentation
The GoogleSheetsMapper.fetchGoogleSheetsData
function takes an object with three properties:
| Name | Value | | ------------- | ------ | | apiKey | string | | sheetId | string | | sheetsOptions | array |
apiKey
is a Google Sheets API v4 key from Google Cloud Console.sheetId
is the id of the sheet.sheetsOptions
is an array of specific objects{ id, headerRowIndex }
. Can be left out then it will fallback to all sheets inside the spreadsheet and use first row from sheet as header.
Exposed Data
The function produces an MapperState
object:
try {
const data = await GoogleSheetsMapper.fetchGoogleSheetsData({
apiKey,
sheetId,
});
} catch (error) {
console.error(error);
}
| Name | Value | | ----- | -------------- | | data | array | | error | null or object |
data
is an array of mapped data objects.
[
{
id: 'Sheet1',
data: [
{ value: 'et', key: 'language' },
{ value: 'Test sheet', key: 'title' },
],
},
];
error
lets you know when there is something wrong. It returns an error object where you can get specific error properties fromerror.response
{
status: '404',
statusText: '',
url: 'https://sheets.googleapis.com/v4/spreadsheets/...',
}
