Sendowl Consolidation Script
Unifying our sendowl accounts into one
As self-published authors, Audrey and I use the awesome [sendowl](https://sendowl.com) service to distribute our digital files. We had multiple storefronts accounts for different countries but now we only need one. This is what I wrote to handle the migration of orders from multiple accounts into just one account.
```python
"""
This converts a Sendowl orders CSV export into a CSV
following Sendowl's import template. Useful for
consolidating Sendowl accounts.
"""
import csv
import sys
from pathlib import Path
try:
import typer
except ImportError:
print("Run 'pip install typer'")
sys.exit()
fieldnames = """
Buyer Email (required)
Buyer Name
Transaction ID
Amount
Gateway Fee
Order date and time (YYYY-MM-DD hh::mm:ss)
""".strip().splitlines()
real_to_dollar = 5.25
def main(input_file: Path):
typer.secho(
f"Parsing data from '{input_file}'",
fg=typer.colors.GREEN,
)
orders = []
with open(input_file) as f:
reader = csv.DictReader(f)
for row in reader:
amount = row["Amount"]
if not amount.strip():
amount = "0"
amount = float(amount)
orders.append(
{
"Buyer Email (required)": row["Buyer Email"],
"Buyer Name": row["Buyer Name"],
"Transaction ID": row["SendOwl Transaction ID"],
"Amount": amount / real_to_dollar,
"Gateway Fee": "0",
"Order date and time (YYYY-MM-DD hh::mm:ss)": row[
"Order date/time"
],
}
)
typer.secho(
f"Converting {len(orders)} orders",
fg=typer.colors.GREEN,
)
with open("output.csv", "w") as output_file:
writer = csv.DictWriter(output_file, fieldnames=fieldnames)
writer.writeheader()
writer.writerows(orders)
typer.secho(f"Done!", fg=typer.colors.GREEN)
if __name__ == "__main__":
typer.run(main)
