A utility form builder that allows an admin to perform one-off structured data imports.
A UI handler for fetching, parsing, previewing and processing a data source in one go.
Similar to how Feeds module links pluggable fetchers, parsers and processors to create a feeds processing pipeline, this does something similar with one multi-step admin wizard-like form.
* Fetchers (including preconfigured services)
* Parsers
* a processor stage that will let you preview the results
* options to act on the results.
This library module does nothing on its own, but is a dependency of the field_schema_importer (it builds the front-end UI) and is being worked into other modules that used to do this task by hand - specifically taxonomy_xml
Roadmap includes bringing the plugin system in use closer to the Feeds model, so as to be able to USE Feeds plugins, and then end up a simpler, and preconfigurable run-once front end to feeds type processes that currently require you to configure your ruels in one place, then rune the process to apply them in a different place. Really, a UI wrapper to the Feeds engine maybe.
