""" Serialize data to/from CSV Since CSV deals only in string values, certain conventions must be employed to represent other data types. The conventions used in this serializer implementation are as follows: - Boolean values are serialized as 'TRUE' and 'FALSE' - The strings 'TRUE' and 'FALSE' are serialized as "'TRUE'" and "'FALSE'" - None is serialized as 'NULL' - The string 'NULL' is serialized as "'NULL'" - Lists are serialized as comma separated items surrounded by brackets, e.g. [foo, bar] becomes '[foo, bar]' - Strings beginning with '[' and ending in ']' are serialized by being wrapped in single quotes, e.g. '[foo, bar]' becomes "'[foo, bar]'" See also: http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.2/topics/serialization/ """ import codecs import csv import re import StringIO from itertools import groupby from operator import itemgetter from django.core.serializers.python import Serializer as PythonSerializer from django.core.serializers.python import Deserializer as PythonDeserializer from django.utils.encoding import smart_unicode class Serializer(PythonSerializer): """ Convert a queryset to CSV.
