A new release of the MLS membership to directory tool has been completed. Version 2.5 now: * supports Python 2.6.x and 3.0.x now. * Added query capability to show only matching names from directory. * cleaned up option processing. * No longer shows head of house aged under 18 if child option not selected.
The MLSMem2Dir or MLS Membership to Directory tool has been released. It takes an MLS Membership export and converts it into various membership directories which can be put into spreadsheets or word processors to build compact or specialized directories. It is a command-line, console-based tool, so you'll need a basic understanding of the command line or command shell to utilize it. One quick example of what it can do is to process a Membership.csv file from MLS in the following manner: Directory including all parents and children first and last preferred names, a normalized phone number, and a normalized, abbreviated address, also show any members of the family with different last names than the head-of-house in a tab-delimited format. mlsmem2dir.py -abclnpst Membership.csv Another example is to generate a brief list of only adults by first and last preferred name, and an abbreviated and normalized address and phone number in tab-delimited format. I use this for creating ward directories myself. mlsmem2dir.py -abnpst Membership.csv For leadership, I also generate a list showing all members of the family, including sex, age, and household position. This example shows only first and last preferred names and displays any members of the family with different last names. mlsmem2dir.py -cdlst Membership.csv On any of these commands, if you want the output to go to a file instead of the screen, just use a "greater-than symbol" following by a filename as shown in the example below: mlsmem2dir.py Membership.csv > output-file.txt
