## Encode CSV simple
|
||||
Given a sample.yml file of:
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
- [i, like, csv]
|
||||
- [because, excel, is, cool]
|
||||
```
|
||||
then
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
yq -o=csv sample.yml
|
||||
```
|
||||
will output
|
||||
```csv
|
||||
i,like,csv
|
||||
because,excel,is,cool
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Encode TSV simple
|
||||
Given a sample.yml file of:
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
- [i, like, csv]
|
||||
- [because, excel, is, cool]
|
||||
```
|
||||
then
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
yq -o=tsv sample.yml
|
||||
```
|
||||
will output
|
||||
```tsv
|
||||
i like csv
|
||||
because excel is cool
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Encode array of objects to csv
|
||||
Add the header row manually, then the we convert each object into an array of values - resulting in an array of arrays. Nice thing about this method is you can pick the columns and call the header whatever you like.
|
||||
|
||||
Given a sample.yml file of:
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
- name: Gary
|
||||
numberOfCats: 1
|
||||
likesApples: true
|
||||
height: 168.8
|
||||
- name: Samantha's Rabbit
|
||||
numberOfCats: 2
|
||||
likesApples: false
|
||||
height: -188.8
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
then
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
yq -o=csv '[["Name", "Number of Cats"]] + [.[] | [.name, .numberOfCats ]]' sample.yml
|
||||
```
|
||||
will output
|
||||
```csv
|
||||
Name,Number of Cats
|
||||
Gary,1
|
||||
Samantha's Rabbit,2
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Encode array of objects to csv - generic
|
||||
This is a little trickier than the previous example - we dynamically work out the $header, and use that to automatically create the value arrays.
|
||||
|
||||
Given a sample.yml file of:
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
- name: Gary
|
||||
numberOfCats: 1
|
||||
likesApples: true
|
||||
height: 168.8
|
||||
- name: Samantha's Rabbit
|
||||
numberOfCats: 2
|
||||
likesApples: false
|
||||
height: -188.8
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
then
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
yq -o=csv '(.[0] | keys | .[] ) as $header | [[$header]] + [.[] | [ .[$header] ]]' sample.yml
|
||||
```
|
||||
will output
|
||||
```csv
|
||||
name,numberOfCats,likesApples,height
|
||||
Gary,1,true,168.8
|
||||
Samantha's Rabbit,2,false,-188.8
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Parse CSV into an array of objects
|
||||
First row is assumed to define the fields
|
||||
|
||||
Given a sample.csv file of:
|
||||
```csv
|
||||
name,numberOfCats,likesApples,height
|
||||
Gary,1,true,168.8
|
||||
Samantha's Rabbit,2,false,-188.8
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
then
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
yq -p=csv sample.csv
|
||||
```
|
||||
will output
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
- name: Gary
|
||||
numberOfCats: 1
|
||||
likesApples: true
|
||||
height: 168.8
|
||||
- name: Samantha's Rabbit
|
||||
numberOfCats: 2
|
||||
likesApples: false
|
||||
height: -188.8
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Parse TSV into an array of objects
|
||||
First row is assumed to define the fields
|
||||
|
||||
Given a sample.tsv file of:
|
||||
```tsv
|
||||
name numberOfCats likesApples height
|
||||
Gary 1 true 168.8
|
||||
Samantha's Rabbit 2 false -188.8
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
then
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
yq -p=tsv sample.tsv
|
||||
```
|
||||
will output
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
- name: Gary
|
||||
numberOfCats: 1
|
||||
likesApples: true
|
||||
height: 168.8
|
||||
- name: Samantha's Rabbit
|
||||
numberOfCats: 2
|
||||
likesApples: false
|
||||
height: -188.8
|
||||
```
