Pulling Data from Google spreadsheet - dashing

Question

I am having difficulty pulling data from Google spreadsheet
I have added following gem files
gem 'roo'
gem 'google_drive'
gem 'google-spreadsheet-ruby'
My jobs file is
require 'roo'
require 'rubygems'
def fetch_spreadsheet_data()
google_user = "MY EMAIL ADDRESS"
google_password = "MY PASSWORD"
workbook = Roo::Google.new("https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=1hdwnrDsuJId1FLE0yWICYP1HGqYNu2NHH2IcoPyAzOQ#gid=0",user: google_user, password: google_password)
send_event('catchup_data', {current: s.cell('B',2) })
send_event('Bounced_back', {current: s.cell('B',3) )
end
SCHEDULER.every '5m' do
fetch_spreadsheet_data()
end
My dashboard.erb file has following html
<li data-row="2" data-col="3" data-sizex="1" data-sizey="1">
<div data-id="bounce_back" data-view="Number" data-title="Triage - Work in Progress" style="background-color:#5AC352;"></div>
</li>
<li data-row="2" data-col="4" data-sizex="1" data-sizey="1">
<div data-id="catchup_data" data-view="Number" data-title="Squad catchup sessions last month" style="background-color:#DBA901;"></div>
</li>
Not sure what am I missing that the data is not coming through. Can anyone please help me?

Answer 1

There are a few things wrong that I can see:
You're sending 'Bounced_back' but binding to the id of 'bounce_back'
You are trying to get the cell data from 's' but 's' is undefined
Looking at the Roo docs, I believe you have copied 's' from there. Just above that, they use sheet instead so I believe you have to grab the sheet from the workbook before using it.
I googled a bit and found this: http://etzelstorfer.com/en/dashing-graph-from-google-spreadsheet/
In summary, this should work for you:
def fetch_spreadsheet_data()
google_user = "MY EMAIL ADDRESS"
google_password = "MY PASSWORD"
workbook = Roo::Google.new("https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=1hdwnrDsuJId1FLE0yWICYP1HGqYNu2NHH2IcoPyAzOQ#gid=0",user: google_user, password: google_password)
s = workbook.sheets[0] # assuming first sheet in workbook
send_event('catchup_data', {current: s.cell('B',2) })
send_event('bounce_back', {current: s.cell('B',3) )
end
SCHEDULER.every '5m' do
fetch_spreadsheet_data()
end
