Hello,
This is possible as now majority of know how is located in server, there is some controller function to get header structure and fields/content validation like parse_preview
.
ir.import
is a Transient Model defined in base import so it will be easier to modify it.
if you can prepare data format compatible with def load(self, cr, uid, fields, data, context=None)
(a list of field and a list of list) of orm that is "mapped" by def do(self, cr, uid, id, fields, options, dryrun=False, context=None)
of base_import it should work.
But it is quite a work. Maybe you should look to port community module that do advance import and already support XLS.
