CsvTable:

→ To create a new instance, use ICsvTable table = new CsvTable(string[] csvLines, string delimiter = ";") + 7 overload;

  • Gets or sets the culture of this table. Setting this property will apply the culture on all elements of the ColumnList.
• string Delimiter { get; set; }
  • Gets or sets the delimiter used on the csv file.
• List<ICsvColumn> ColumnList { get; set; }
  • Gets or sets the list of ICsvColumn of the current ICsvTable.
• AddColumn(string columnName, int index = -1) + 1 overload:
  • Adds a new column to the ColumnList.
• GetColumn(string columnName, StringComparison comparison):
  • Returns the column based on the name. If the column does not exist, it returns a new column with the name of UNDEFINED.
  • Supports csvTable[string columnName], [int columnIndex] variants.
• GetColumnIndex(string columName, CsvSearchType searchType, StringComparison comparison) +1 overload:
  • Returns the index of the column.
  • Supports csvTable[string columnName, CsvSearchType searchType], csvTable[CsvSearchType searchType, StringComparison comparison, string[] columnName] variants.
• ICsvColumn GetColumn(string columnName, StringComparison comparison):
  • Checks if the columnName exists in the ColumnList, returning the first instance found. If it doesn't exist, it return a new CsvColumn with the name UNDEFINED.
• MoveColumn(int oldIndex, int newIndex) + 1 overload:
  • Moves the position of this column with another column.
• MergeColumn(int firstColumnIndex, int secondColumnIndex, string separator) + 1 overload:
  • Merges a column with another column.
• SplitColumn(int columnIndex, string separator, int newColumnIndex = -1) + 1 overload:
  • Splits a column with the separator and saves the split data into a new column.
• RemoveColumn(int[] columnIndex) + 1 overload:
  • Removes a column from the ColumnList.
• List<string> ToList(bool includeHeader):
  • Converts the ICsvTable into a List<string>.
• string[] ToArray(bool includeHeader):
  • Converts the ICsvTable into an array of string.
• string ToString(bool includeHeader, SplitType newLineType):
  • Converts the ICsvTable into a string.

CsvColumn:

→ _To create a new instance, use ICsvColumn column = new CsvColumn() + 3 overload;

• string Name { get; set; }
  • Gets or sets the column name.
• CultureInfo CultureInfo { get; set; }
  • Gets or sets the culture info.
• bool ContainsEmptyRows { get; }
  • Gets a value indicating whether this column contains any empty rows or not.
• List<string> RowList { get; set; }
  • Gets or sets the row list.
• AddRow(string row) + 1 overload:
  • Adds a row.
• AddToRowElements(CsvRowAddType direction, string value):
  • Adds value in the rows.
• GetRow(int index) +1 overload:
  • Returns the row corresponding to the index. If the index is out of bounds, it returns a string.Empty.
  • Supports csvColumn[int index] variant.
• GetRowEqual(StringComparison comparison, string value)
  • Returns the first row that contains the value.
• GetRowOrEqual(StringComparison comparison, params string[] values)
  • Returns the first row that contains one of the values.
• GetRowAndContains(StringComparison comparison, params string[] values)
  • Returns the first row that contains all of the values.
• GetRowOrContains(StringComparison comparison, params string[] values)
  • Returns the first row that contains one of the values.
• NormalizeNumbers(CultureInfo? culture):
  • Normalizes the numbers of the RowList by using the culture.
• ChangeDateFormat(string oldDateFormat, string newDateFormat):
  • Parses the RowList with the oldDateFormat to a DateTime and converts it back to a string using the newDateFormat.

CsvHelper:

• ReadMultipleHeaderCsv(string[] csvLines, string delimiter, int[] headerPosition) + 1 overload:
  • Helps on reading a csv that has multiple headers.
• ToList(List<ICsvTable> tableList):
  • Converts a List of ICsvTable into a csv.
• ToString(List<ICsvTable> tableList, bool includeHeader, SplitType newLineType):
  • Converts a List of ICsvTable into a single string.
