pillowfactory/csv-mapper: A small library intended to simplify the common steps involved with importing CSV files to a usable form in Ruby.

CsvMapper is a small library intended to simplify the common steps involved with importing CSV files to a usable form in Ruby. CsvMapper is compatible with recent 1.8 versions of Ruby as well as Ruby 1.9+

The following example will import a CSV file to an Array of Struct instances.

Example CSV File Structure
First Name,Last Name,Age
John,Doe,27
Jane,Doe,26
Bat,Man,52
...etc...
results = CsvMapper.import('/path/to/file.csv') do
  start_at_row 1
  [first_name, last_name, age]
end

results.first.first_name  # John
results.first.last_name   # Doe
results.first.age         # 27
Automagical Attribute Discovery Example
results = CsvMapper.import('/path/to/file.csv') do
  read_attributes_from_file
end

results.first.first_name  # John
results.first.last_name   # Doe
results.first.age         # 27
Import to ActiveRecord Example

Although CsvMapper has no dependency on ActiveRecord; it’s easy to import a CSV file to ActiveRecord models and save them.

# Define an ActiveRecord model
class Person < ActiveRecord::Base; end

results = CsvMapper.import('/path/to/file.csv') do
  map_to Person # Map to the Person ActiveRecord class (defined above) instead of the default Struct.
  after_row lambda{|row, person| person.save }  # Call this lambda and save each record after it's parsed.
  start_at_row 1
  [first_name, last_name, age]
end
