Module Delimited_kernel.ReadSource

Read CSVs & CSV-like delimited formats (following the CSV quoting behaviour).

These formats are loosely documented by RFC 4180: https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4180.txt

Sourceexception Bad_csv_formatting of string list * string

Row up to the error, and the field with the error up to the point of failure. Same as Expert.Parse_state.Bad_csv_formatting.

Sourcetype 'a t

This provides an applicative interface for constructing values from a csv file.

An 'a t describes how to build an OCaml model 'a for each row.

Simple example:

  type t =
    { foo : int
    ; bar : string
    }

  (* Describes how to generate a [t] from a row of a csv file *)
  let parse : t Delimited_kernel.Parse.t =
    let open Delimited_kernel.Parse.Let_syntax in
    let%map_open foo = at_header "foo" ~f:Int.of_string
    and bar = at_header "bar" ~f:String.of_string in
    { foo; bar }
  ;;

  let _ =
    Delimited_kernel.Parse.list_of_string ~header:`Yes parse
      "foo,bar\n2,\"hello, world\"\n"
  ;;

Sourceval at_index : int -> f:(string -> 'a) -> 'a t

Read a field at the given index. Use f to convert the field from string.

Sourceval at_header : string -> f:(string -> 'a) -> 'a t

Read a field at the given header. Use f to convert the field from string.

Note that if the given header is not provided through either the file or the ~header argument to the parsers, this will fail at runtime.

Sourceval at_header_opt : string -> f:(string option -> 'a) -> 'a t

Read a field at the given header, if it exists. Use f to convert the field from string.

Sourcemodule On_invalid_row : sig ... end
Sourcemodule Header : sig ... end

Header parsing control

Sourcemodule Row : sig ... end

Whole-row parsing.

Sourceval fold_string : ?strip:bool -> ?sep:char -> ?quote:[ `No_quoting | `Using of char ] -> ?header:Header.t -> ?on_invalid_row:'a On_invalid_row.t -> 'a t -> init:'b -> f:('b -> 'a -> 'b) -> string -> 'b

Fold the CSV rows contained in the given string.

Sourceval list_of_string : ?strip:bool -> ?sep:char -> ?quote:[ `No_quoting | `Using of char ] -> ?header:Header.t -> ?on_invalid_row:'a On_invalid_row.t -> 'a t -> string -> 'a list

Load the CSV as a list

Sourceval read_lines : ?strip:bool -> ?sep:char -> ?quote:[ `No_quoting | `Using of char ] -> ?header:Header.t -> ?on_invalid_row:'a On_invalid_row.t -> 'a t -> Core_kernel.In_channel.t -> 'a list

Read CSV file.

Experts only. If you really think you need a function in this module, please talk to a delimited dev first.
