Transform input into a CSV-formatted string
:ref:`csv.iterate() <csv-iterate>`
Iterate over CSV records
Get CSV-formatted input from ``readable`` and return a table as output. Usually ``readable`` is either a string or a file opened for reading. Usually :samp:`{options}` is not specified.
Parameters
a string, or any object which has a read() method, formatted according to the CSV rules
see :ref:`above <csv-options>`
return
loaded_value
rtype
table
**Example:**
Readable string has 3 fields, field#2 has comma and space so use quote marks:
tarantool> csv = require('csv')
---
...
tarantool> csv.load('a,"b,c ",d')
---
- - - a
- 'b,c '
- d
...
Readable string contains 2-byte character = Cyrillic Letter Palochka: (This displays a palochka if and only if character set = UTF-8.)
tarantool> csv.load('a\\211\\128b')
---
- - - a\211\128b
...
Semicolon instead of comma for the delimiter:
tarantool> csv.load('a,b;c,d', {delimiter = ';'})
---
- - - a,b
- c,d
...
Readable file :file:`./file.csv` contains two CSV records. Explanation of ``fio`` is in section :ref:`fio <fio-section>`. Source CSV file and example respectively:
tarantool> -- input in file.csv is:
tarantool> -- a,"b,c ",d
tarantool> -- a\\211\\128b
tarantool> fio = require('fio')
---
...
tarantool> f = fio.open('./file.csv', {'O_RDONLY'})
---
...
tarantool> csv.load(f, {chunk_size = 4096})
---
- - - a
- 'b,c '
- d
- - a\\211\\128b
...
tarantool> f:close()
---
- true
...
Get table input from ``csv-table`` and return a CSV-formatted string as output. Or, get table input from ``csv-table`` and put the output in ``writable``. Usually :samp:`{options}` is not specified. Usually ``writable``, if specified, is a file opened for writing. :ref:`csv.dump() <csv-dump>` is the reverse of :ref:`csv.load() <csv-load>`.
a table which can be formatted according to the CSV rules.
optional. see :ref:`above <csv-options>`
any object which has a ``write()`` method
dumped_value
string, which is written to ``writable`` if specified
CSV-table has 3 fields, field#2 has "," so result has quote marks
tarantool> csv = require('csv')
---
...
tarantool> csv.dump({'a','b,c ','d'})
---
- 'a,"b,c ",d

'
