=head1 NAME
Text::CSV - comma-separated values manipulation routines
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use Text::CSV;
$version = Text::CSV->version(); # get the module version
$csv = Text::CSV->new(); # create a new object
$status = $csv->combine(@columns); # combine columns into a string
$line = $csv->string(); # get the combined string
$status = $csv->parse($line); # parse a CSV string into fields
@columns = $csv->fields(); # get the parsed fields
$status = $csv->status(); # get the most recent status
$bad_argument = $csv->error_input(); # get the most recent bad argument
=head1 DESCRIPTION
Text::CSV provides facilities for the composition and decomposition of
comma-separated values. An instance of the Text::CSV class can combine
fields into a CSV string and parse a CSV string into fields.
=head1 FUNCTIONS
=over 4
=item version
$version = Text::CSV->version();
This function may be called as a class or an object method. It returns the current
module version.
=item new
$csv = Text::CSV->new();
This function may be called as a class or an object method. It returns a reference to a
newly created Text::CSV object.
=item combine
$status = $csv->combine(@columns);
This object function constructs a CSV string from the arguments, returning
success or failure. Failure can result from lack of arguments or an argument
containing an invalid character. Upon success, C<string()> can be called to
retrieve the resultant CSV string. Upon failure, the value returned by
C<string()> is undefined and C<error_input()> can be called to retrieve an
invalid argument.
=item string
$line = $csv->string();
This object function returns the input to C<parse()> or the resultant CSV string of
C<combine()>, whichever was called more recently.
=item parse
$status = $csv->parse($line);
This object function decomposes a CSV string into fields, returning
success or failure. Failure can result from a lack of argument or the given CSV
string is improperly formatted. Upon success, C<fields()> can be called to
retrieve the decomposed fields . Upon failure, the value returned by
C<fields()> is undefined and C<error_input()> can be called to retrieve the
invalid argument.
=item fields
@columns = $csv->fields();
This object function returns the input to C<combine()> or the resultant decomposed
fields of C<parse()>, whichever was called more recently.
=item status
$status = $csv->status();
This object function returns success (or failure) of C<combine()> or C<parse()>,
whichever was called more recently.
=item error_input
$bad_argument = $csv->error_input();
This object function returns the erroneous argument (if it exists) of C<combine()>
or C<parse()>, whichever was called more recently.
=back
=head1 EXAMPLE
require Text::CSV;
my $csv = Text::CSV->new;
my $column = '';
my $sample_input_string = '"I said, ""Hi!""",Yes,"",2.34,,"1.09"';
if ($csv->parse($sample_input_string)) {
my @field = $csv->fields;
my $count = 0;
for $column (@field) {
print ++$count, " => ", $column, "\n";
}
print "\n";
} else {
my $err = $csv->error_input;
print "parse() failed on argument: ", $err, "\n";
}
my @sample_input_fields = ('You said, "Hello!"',
5.67,
'Surely',
'',
'3.14159');
if ($csv->combine(@sample_input_fields)) {
my $string = $csv->string;
print $string, "\n";
} else {
my $err = $csv->error_input;
print "combine() failed on argument: ", $err, "\n";
}
=head1 CAVEATS
This module is based upon a working definition of CSV format which may not be
the most general.
=over 4
=item 1
Allowable characters within a CSV field include 0x09 (tab) and the inclusive
range of 0x20 (space) through 0x7E (tilde).
=item 2
A field within CSV may be surrounded by double-quotes.
=item 3
A field within CSV must be surrounded by double-quotes to contain a comma.
=item 4
A field within CSV must be surrounded by double-quotes to contain an embedded
double-quote, represented by a pair of consecutive double-quotes.
=item 5
A CSV string may be terminated by 0x0A (line feed) or by 0x0D,0x0A
(carriage return, line feed).
