Catmandu::Importer::TSV - Package that imports tab-separated values
# From the command line # convert a TSV file to JSON catmandu convert TSV to JSON < journals.tab # Or in a Perl script use Catmandu; my $importer = Catmandu->importer('TSV', file => "/foo/bar.tab"); my $n = $importer->each(sub { my $hashref = $_[0]; # ... });
This package imports tab-separated values (TSV). The object fields are read from the TSV header line or given via the fields parameter.
fields
Read input from a local file given by its path. Alternatively a scalar reference can be passed to read from a string.
Read input from an IO::Handle. If not specified, Catmandu::Util::io is used to create the input stream from the file argument or by using STDIN.
file
Binmode of the input stream fh. Set to :utf8 by default.
fh
:utf8
An ARRAY of one or more fixes or file scripts to be applied to imported items.
List of fields to be used as columns, given as array reference, comma-separated string, or hash reference. If header is 0 and fields is undef the fields will be named by column index ("0", "1", "2", ...).
header
0
undef
Read fields from a header line with the column names, if set to 1 (the default).
1
Column separator (tab by default)
tab
Every Catmandu::Importer is a Catmandu::Iterable all its methods are inherited. The methods are not idempotent: CSV streams can only be read once.
