Apply operation history to a new file using API

[Rupert Schiessl]

Hi,

I have one new XLS file incoming every day to which I would like to apply an operation history automatically using the openrefine API.

Are there any example scripts that show how to do that? 

Do I have to create a new project for each file?

Thanks for your help!

Rupert

There are a number of code libraries designed to work with OR - see the list right at the bottom of http://openrefine.org/download.html

Specifically https://github.com/maxogden/refine-ruby does exactly what you want to achieve here I think using Ruby

There is also https://github.com/maxogden/refine-python if you prefer Python

Both these are slightly dated so you may need to check if they work OK with the latest versions of OR.
