Module csvutils
source code
Transformation utilities for csv (or csv-like) generated rows.
The standard csv module is very useful for parsing tabular data in CSV
format. Typically though, one or more transformations need to be applied
to the generated rows before being ready to be used; for instance
"convert the 3rd column to int, the 5th to float and ignore all the
rest". This module provides an easy way to specify such
transformations upfront instead of coding them every time by hand.
Two classes are currently available, SequenceTransformer and MappingTransformer, that represent each row as a list
(like csv.reader
) or dict (like
csv.DictReader
), respectively.
Requires:
Python 2.3 or later.
