CSVKit is a very simple, fast and lightweight CSV parsing and encoding library for Swift programming.
The parser reads in an String or Data object and parses the CSV fields into an array of strings. Every root element corresponds to one line of the data.
Features:
- Parse CSV from String and Data
- Encode string arrays to CSV string data
Add the following to your Package.swift file:
dependencies: [
.package(url: "https://github.com/sanzaru/csvkit.git", from: "0.0.1")
]
import Foundation
import CSVKit
struct App {
static func main() {
// Decode with semicolon (default) separator
let csvData = "Foo;Bar;Foo2;Bar2\n\"Line2\";\"Line2-1\";\"Line2-2\";\"Line2-3\""
let parsed = CSVParser.shared.parse(from: csvData)
dump(parsed)
}
}
App.main()Output:
▿ 2 elements
▿ 4 elements
- "Foo"
- "Bar"
- "Foo2"
- "Bar2"
▿ 4 elements
- "Line2"
- "Line2-1"
- "Line2-2"
- "Line2-3"
import Foundation
import CSVKit
struct App {
static func main() {
// Decode with custom separator
let csvDataComma = "Foo,Bar,Foo2,Bar2\n\"Line2\",\"Line2-1\",\"Line2-2\",\"Line2-3\""
var parser = CSVParser()
parser.separator = ","
let parsedComma = parser.parse(from: csvDataComma)
dump(parsedComma)
}
}
App.main()Output:
▿ 2 elements
▿ 4 elements
- "Foo"
- "Bar"
- "Foo2"
- "Bar2"
▿ 4 elements
- "Line2"
- "Line2-1"
- "Line2-2"
- "Line2-3"
import Foundation
import CSVKit
struct App {
static func main() {
do {
let dummyData = "Foo;Bar;Foo2;Bar2\n\"Line2\";\"Line2-1\";\"Line2-2\";\"Line2-3\""
let csvData: [[String]] = CSVParser.shared.parse(from: dummyData)
dump(try CSVEncoder.shared.encode(from: csvData))
} catch {
fatalError(error.localizedDescription)
}
}
}
App.main()Output:
"Foo;Bar;Foo2;Bar2\r\nLine2;\"Line2-1\";\"Line2-2\";\"Line2-3\""
