Description
This is a pure OCaml library to read and write CSV files, including all extensions used by Excel — e.g. quotes, newlines, 8 bit characters in fields, "0 etc. A special representation of rows of CSV files with a header is provided. The library comes with a handy command line tool called csvtool for handling CSV files from shell scripts. This version can be used with the monadic concurrency library LWT.

OCaml CSV
The comma-separated values format — or CSV for short — is a simple tabular format supported by all major spreadsheets. This library implements pure OCaml functions to read and write files in this format (including Excel extensions) as well as some convenience functions to manipulate such data.

opam install csv

jbuilder install csv
jbuilder install csv-lwt
