Abstract

googlesheets mirrors the import excel / export excel / putexcel family, but talks to live Google Sheets via the Sheets API. Surgical placement of values and matrices, on-demand cell formatting, sheet (tab) management, and filtered reads of Google Forms response sheets. Subcommands: import, export, put, format, list, ping, addsheet, deletesheet, renamesheet. Talking to the API needs a one-time Google Cloud OAuth setup; see the One-time setup section of -help googlesheets-. The package creates a private Python venv on first run and installs the Google client libraries into it.
