Package: ghc-cassava @ 0.5.2.0

Synopsis

CSV parsing and encoding library

Description

cassava is a library for parsing and encoding RFC 4180 compliant comma-separated values (CSV) data, which is a textual line-oriented format commonly used for exchanging tabular data.

cassava's API includes support for:

• Index-based record-conversion

• Name-based record-conversion

• Typeclass directed conversion of fields and records

• Built-in field-conversion instances for standard types

• Customizable record-conversion instance derivation via GHC generics

• Low-level bytestring builders (see Data.Csv.Builder)

• Incremental decoding and encoding API (see Data.Csv.Incremental)

• Streaming API for constant-space decoding (see Data.Csv.Streaming)

Moreover, this library is designed to be easy to use; for instance, here's a very simple example of encoding CSV data:

>>> Data.Csv.encode [("John",27),("Jane",28)]
"John,27
Jane,28
"
