# GerbilManager import tooling (FEAT-8b)

One-off **migration tooling** (Python, no third-party deps) that turns Julian's
wife's hand-built spreadsheets into normalised JSON for review and, later, import.
This is *not* product code — it lives outside the app and is run manually.

See the format analysis in `FEAT-8a-format-spec.md` (Pam's hive workspace).

## What it does

`extract.py` runs **stages 1–2** of the pipeline:

1. **Extract (stage 1)**
   - 10 *Stammbaum* pedigree charts → animals (name, DOB, death, Farbschlag,
     genotype, breeder, positionally-reconstructed parent links, photos).
   - *Wurfchronik* litter chronicle → litters (date, dam, sire, Wurfstärke,
     sex breakdown, Zuchtnummer, notes). Columns are read **by header row** because
     the two sheets use different schemas.
   - Embedded photos (`xl/media`) → `output/photos/<animal-slug>/`, mapped to the
     animal by drawing anchor position.
2. **Dedup + review (stage 2)**
   - Merge animals on `normalise(name) + DOB` (corroborated by DOB+genotype).
   - Emit a German-language `output/review-report.md` for the breeder to verify
     (merges, **conflicts**, ambiguous/incomplete entries, unmapped genotype tokens).
   - **Nothing is loaded into the database** — stage 3 (API load) is separate and
     waits on DATA-2 + FEAT-1b phase 2.

Genotypes are mapped to the frozen 8-locus contract (A C D E G P Sp Re) while
preserving everything: `genotype.mapped8locus`, `genotype.rawGenotype` (verbatim),
`genotype.unmappedTokens` (e.g. the `Uw` locus, markers `WFNZ/WP/DP`). A `-`
(unknown second allele) maps to `?`.

## Run

```sh
cd tools/import
python extract.py                       # uses the default source paths
python extract.py --stammbaeume "<dir>" --wurfchronik "<file.xlsx>"
```

Requires Python 3. **Re-runnable / idempotent** — re-run when more files arrive
(Wurfchronik `Teil2+`, or new charts).

## Output (`tools/import/output/`, git-ignored except the report)

| File | Contents |
|---|---|
| `animals.json` | deduped animals with genotype, parentRefs, photos, sourceFiles |
| `litters.json` | litters from the Wurfchronik |
| `photos/<slug>/…` | extracted, anchor-mapped images |
| `review-report.md` | **human review deliverable** (committed) |

## Files

- `xlsx_util.py` — dependency-free `.xlsx` reader (zip + XML): shared strings,
  cells by reference, image/drawing anchors.
- `genotype.py` — genotype notation parser → 8-locus mapping + raw + unmapped.
- `extract.py` — the pipeline (stages 1–2).
