elixir read csv file
To read a CSV file in Elixir, you can use the CSV
module from the :csv
library. Here's an example of how you can do it:
# First, add the :csv dependency to your mix.exs file:
defp deps do
[
{:csv, "~> 2.4"}
]
end
# Then, fetch and compile the dependency:
$ mix deps.get
$ mix deps.compile
# Now, you can use the CSV module to read the file:
{:ok, csv} = File.read("path/to/your/file.csv")
parsed_csv = CSV.decode(csv)
# You can then access the data in the CSV file:
Enum.each(parsed_csv, fn row ->
# Process each row here
IO.inspect(row)
end)
Please note that you need to replace "path/to/your/file.csv"
with the actual path to your CSV file. Also, make sure to handle any errors that may occur during the file reading process.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.
