csvbible

The cvsbible modules provides a facility to import bibles from a set of CSV files.

The module expects two mandatory files containing the books and the verses.

The format of the books file is:

<book_id>,<testament_id>,<book_name>,<book_abbreviation>

For example

1,1,Genesis,Gen 2,1,Exodus,Exod ... 40,2,Matthew,Matt

There are two acceptable formats of the verses file. They are:

<book_id>,<chapter_number>,<verse_number>,<verse_text> or <book_name>,<chapter_number>,<verse_number>,<verse_text>

For example:

1,1,1,”In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.” or “Genesis”,1,2,”And the earth was without form, and void; and....”

All CSV files are expected to use a comma (‘,’) as the delimiter and double quotes (‘”’) as the quote symbol.
