Please explain how to summarize this PR for the Changelog:

This PR provides a new option skipEmptyLines to skip empty lines.

Tell code reviewer how and what to test:

With this release all empty rows after the last row of data will always be removed. The skipEmptyLines will control whether empty rows between data rows are removed.

Example files with empty lines:
Book1.xlsx
contacts.txt

Example listener.ts:

import type { FlatfileListener } from '@flatfile/listener'
import { DelimiterExtractor } from '@flatfile/plugin-delimiter-extractor'
import { ExcelExtractor } from '@flatfile/plugin-xlsx-extractor'

export default async function (listener: FlatfileListener) {
  listener.use(
    ExcelExtractor({
      skipEmptyLines: true,
    })
  )
  listener.use(
    DelimiterExtractor('txt', { delimiter: ',', skipEmptyLines: true })
  )
}

7-9: Empty rows at the end serve the PR objective, but consider a minor adjustment.

The empty rows at the end (lines 7-9) align with the PR objective of testing the automatic removal of empty rows after the last data row. However, for consistency, consider removing the last completely empty line (line 9).

 ,,
 ,,
-

This change ensures all rows in the file have a consistent format, even if they will be removed during processing.


1-9: File structure is suitable for testing, but consider renaming the file.

The overall structure of the file is well-suited for testing the skipEmptyLines option, containing a mix of data rows and empty rows both between data and at the end of the file. This aligns perfectly with the PR objectives.

Consider renaming the file from csv.txt to csv.csv to accurately reflect its content type. This change would make the file's purpose more immediately clear to other developers.

1-6: Approved with suggestion for improvement.

The changeset correctly identifies the affected packages and uses an appropriate "minor" version bump for introducing a new feature. However, the description could be more informative.

Consider expanding the description to provide more context and usage information. Here's a suggested improvement:

-This release provides a new option `skipEmptyLines` to skip empty lines.
+This release introduces a new option `skipEmptyLines` for both the delimiter and XLSX extractors. When enabled, this option allows the plugins to skip processing of empty lines in the input data, providing more flexibility in handling various data formats. Users can now configure this option to improve the efficiency of data extraction, especially when dealing with files that may contain irrelevant empty lines between data entries.

This expanded description offers more context about which plugins are affected, what the option does, and why it might be useful to users.

plugins/xlsx-extractor/src/index.ts (1)

21-21: Approved addition of skipEmptyLines property, with suggestions for improvement.

The new skipEmptyLines property is a good addition that aligns with the PR objectives. However, consider the following improvements:

  1. Add a JSDoc comment for the new property to improve clarity for users of this interface.
  2. Consider organizing the properties in the interface in a logical order (e.g., grouping related properties or arranging them alphabetically).

Here's a suggested implementation with these improvements:

   readonly rawNumbers?: boolean
   readonly dateNF?: string
   readonly headerDetectionOptions?: GetHeadersOptions
+  /** If true, empty lines in the data will be skipped during extraction. */
   readonly skipEmptyLines?: boolean
   readonly chunkSize?: number
   readonly parallel?: number
   readonly debug?: boolean
plugins/xlsx-extractor/src/parser.spec.ts (4)

15-39: Improved test coverage for 'Excel to WorkbookCapture'.

The updated test case now includes more detailed expectations, which aligns well with the PR objectives. It properly checks for null values and spaces in the data.

Consider adding a comment explaining the significance of the ' ' (six spaces) value in the 'Code' field of the second data entry. This might help other developers understand if this is an expected edge case or a specific test scenario.


42-63: Great addition of granular tests!

The new tests for sheet names, header names, and values provide excellent coverage for the parseBuffer function. They ensure that the basic structure of the parsed data is correct.

In the 'finds values' test (lines 60-62), consider asserting the actual values of the data, not just the length. This would provide even more robust verification of the parsing process.


64-93: Excellent test for non-unique header handling!

This test thoroughly checks the handling of non-unique headers, ensuring they are properly differentiated. This is crucial for maintaining data integrity during extraction.

Consider parameterizing this test to make it more maintainable. You could create an array of expected headers and use it in the assertion, like this:

const expectedHeaders = [
  'Name', 'Group', 'Rebates', 'Purchases',
  ...Array.from({length: 11}, (_, i) => [`Rebates_${i+1}`, `Purchases_${i+1}`]).flat()
];
expect(capture['Rebates-Purchases'].headers).toEqual(expectedHeaders);

This approach would make the test more concise and easier to update if the number of duplicate headers changes in the future.


96-147: Excellent implementation of tests for the new skipEmptyLines option!

These tests thoroughly verify the behavior of the new skipEmptyLines option, covering both true and false cases. They align perfectly with the PR objectives and ensure the new feature works as expected.

To enhance these tests further, consider the following suggestions:

  1. Add a test case for a file with no empty lines to ensure the option doesn't affect files without empty lines.
  2. Consider using a beforeEach to read the buffer, reducing duplication between the two tests.
  3. Use test.each to parameterize the tests, making them more concise and easier to extend. For example:
test.each([
  [true, 3, [
    { header1: { value: 'column1' }, header2: { value: 'column2' }, header3: { value: 'column3' } },
    { header1: { value: 'column4' }, header2: { value: 'column5' }, header3: { value: 'column6' } },
    { header1: { value: 'column7' }, header2: { value: 'column8' }, header3: { value: 'column9' } }
  ]],
  [false, 6, [
    { header1: { value: 'column1' }, header2: { value: 'column2' }, header3: { value: 'column3' } },
    {},
    { header1: { value: 'column4' }, header2: { value: 'column5' }, header3: { value: 'column6' } },
    {},
    {},
    { header1: { value: 'column7' }, header2: { value: 'column8' }, header3: { value: 'column9' } }
  ]]
])('parseBuffer with skipEmptyLines: %s', async (skipEmptyLines, expectedLength, expectedData) => {
  const capture = await parseBuffer(buffer, { skipEmptyLines });
  const data = capture['Sheet1'].data;
  expect(data.length).toEqual(expectedLength);
  expect(data).toEqual(expectedData);
});

This approach would make the tests more maintainable and easier to extend with additional cases in the future.

plugins/delimiter-extractor/src/parser.spec.ts (2)

142-165: LGTM: Well-structured test case for skipping empty lines.

This test case effectively verifies the skipEmptyLines functionality. It's clear, concise, and aligns with the PR objectives.

Consider adding a brief comment explaining the structure of the test data file (e.g., "Test file contains 3 data rows with 2 empty lines in between"). This would enhance readability and make the test's purpose more evident.


166-199: LGTM: Well-structured test case for preserving empty lines.

This test case effectively verifies the behavior when skipEmptyLines is set to false. It's clear, concise, and aligns with the PR objectives.

There's a minor typo in the test name. Consider changing:

-  test("don'tskip empty lines", async () => {
+  test("don't skip empty lines", async () => {

This small change improves readability.

Line range hint 115-116: Define isNullOrWhitespace before using it

The function isNullOrWhitespace is used in your code but is defined at the end of the file. For better readability and to avoid potential reference errors, it's advisable to define helper functions before they are used.

Move the isNullOrWhitespace function definition above its first usage:

+ const isNullOrWhitespace = (value: any) =>
+   value === null || (typeof value === 'string' && value.trim() === '')

...

// Existing code that uses isNullOrWhitespace

This ensures the function is defined before it's called.

21-21: Verify implementation of skipEmptyLines in related files.

While the addition of the skipEmptyLines property to the ExcelExtractorOptions interface is correct, it's important to ensure that this new option is properly implemented throughout the codebase:

  1. Verify that the parseBuffer function (likely in another file) handles this new option correctly.
  2. Ensure that the Extractor function from '@flatfile/util-extractor' correctly passes this option to the parseBuffer function.
  3. Check other parts of the codebase that use ExcelExtractorOptions to see if they need updates to handle this new option.

To assist in this verification, you can run the following script:

This script will help identify the relevant parts of the codebase that might need to be updated or verified for the new skipEmptyLines option.

✅ Verification successful

skipEmptyLines is correctly implemented across all relevant files.

The addition of the skipEmptyLines property in the ExcelExtractorOptions interface has been appropriately handled in the parseBuffer functions and other related areas of the codebase.

⚠️ Potential issue

Handle potential header and data mismatches

When mapping the headers to each row, there is a risk of mismatches if the number of headers does not match the number of columns in a row, leading to undefined keys.

Ensure that the length of headers matches the number of columns in each row. You can adjust the mapping logic to handle discrepancies:

const data: Flatfile.RecordData[] = rows.map((row) => {
  const mappedRow = mapKeys(row, (key, index) => headers[index] || `Column${index + 1}`)
  return mapValues(mappedRow, (value) => ({
    value: transform(value),
  })) as Flatfile.RecordData
})

This ensures that every column has a corresponding header, assigning a default name if necessary.
