How to use it

Getting started is pretty easy. Follow the instructions above to install the module. You'll also need a Google Sheets document to import. Here's how to set up your sheet:

Go up to the File menu and pick Publish to the web. Fiddle with the options, then click Start publishing. A URL will appear, something like https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1sbyMINQHPsJctjAtMW0lCfLrcpMqoGMOJj6AN-sNQrc/pubhtml (of course, it might look a little different).

In the example URL above, you're interested in the key, which is between the /d/ and /pubhtml, so 1sbyMINQHPsJctjAtMW0lCfLrcpMqoGMOJj6AN-sNQrc. Copy this value.

In your Framer project, instantiate a new instance in your project:

{ Sheet } = require 'sheet'

sheet = new Sheet
	key: '1sbyMINQHPsJctjAtMW0lCfLrcpMqoGMOJj6AN-sNQrc'

Now, to actually GET the data from your sheet, call the get method:

sheet.get((data, sheet) ->
  print data
)

...which should print an array of objects (a collection) like...

» [{Name:"Carrot", Category:"Vegetable", Healthiness:"Adequate"},
  {Name:"Pork Shoulder", Category:"Meat", Healthiness:"Questionable"},
  {Name:"Bubblegum", Category:"Candy", Healthiness:"Super High"}]

Pretty cool, huh? You'll see in the example project, I've used Lodash's map to split the collection into rows which and cells for a table.

sheet.get((data, sheet) ->
	_.map data, (row, i) ->
		@row = new Layer
			name: 'row'
			parent: table
#     ...

    @name = new Layer
			html: row.Name
			name: "cell:#{row.Name}"
			parent: @row
#     ...

This is only the beginning...what else can you think to do?

This module makes use of Tabletop.js for the heavy lifting. For more information, check out their documentation, including a section on how to format your Google Sheet.
