This class provides a complete interface to CSV files and data. It offers tools to enable you to read and write to and from Strings or IO objects, as needed.
Reading
From a File
A Line at a Time
CSV.foreach("path/to/file.csv") do |row|
# use row here...
end
All at Once
arr_of_arrs = CSV.read("path/to/file.csv")
From a String
A Line at a Time
CSV.parse("CSV,data,String") do |row|
# use row here...
end
All at Once
arr_of_arrs = CSV.parse("CSV,data,String")
Writing
To a File
CSV.open("path/to/file.csv", "wb") do |csv|
csv << ["row", "of", "CSV", "data"]
csv << ["another", "row"]
# ...
end
To a String
csv_string = CSV.generate do |csv|
csv << ["row", "of", "CSV", "data"]
csv << ["another", "row"]
# ...
end
Convert a Single Line
csv_string = ["CSV", "data"].to_csv # to CSV
csv_array = "CSV,String".parse_csv # from CSV
Shortcut Interface
CSV { |csv_out| csv_out << %w{my data here} } # to $stdout
CSV(csv = "") { |csv_str| csv_str << %w{my data here} } # to a String
CSV($stderr) { |csv_err| csv_err << %w{my data here} } # to $stderr
CSV($stdin) { |csv_in| csv_in.each { |row| p row } } # from $stdin
Advanced Usage
Wrap an IO Object
csv = CSV.new(io, options)
# ... read (with gets() or each()) from and write (with <<) to csv here ...
CSV and Character Encodings (M17n or Multilingualization)
This new CSV parser is m17n savvy. The parser works in the Encoding of the IO or String object being read from or written to. Your data is never transcoded (unless you ask Ruby to transcode it for you) and will literally be parsed in the Encoding it is in. Thus CSV will return Arrays or Rows of Strings in the Encoding of your data. This is accomplished by transcoding the parser itself into your Encoding.
Some transcoding must take place, of course, to accomplish this
multiencoding support. For example, :col_sep
,
:row_sep
, and :quote_char
must be transcoded to
match your data. Hopefully this makes the entire process feel transparent,
since CSV's defaults should just magically work for you data. However,
you can set these values manually in the target Encoding to avoid the translation.
It's also important to note that while all of CSV's core parser is now Encoding agnostic, some features are not. For example, the built-in converters will try to transcode data to UTF-8 before making conversions. Again, you can provide custom converters that are aware of your Encodings to avoid this translation. It's just too hard for me to support native conversions in all of Ruby's Encodings.
Anyway, the practical side of this is simple: make sure IO and String objects passed into CSV have the proper Encoding set and everything should just work. CSV methods that allow you to open IO objects (CSV::foreach(), ::open, ::read, and ::readlines) do allow you to specify the Encoding.
One minor exception comes when generating CSV into a String with an Encoding that is not ASCII compatible. There's no existing data for CSV to use to prepare itself and thus you will probably need to manually specify the desired Encoding for most of those cases. It will try to guess using the fields in a row of output though, when using ::generate_line or Array#to_csv().
I try to point out any other Encoding issues in the documentation of methods as they come up.
This has been tested to the best of my ability with all non-“dummy” Encodings Ruby ships with. However, it is brave new code and may have some bugs. Please feel free to report any issues you find with it.

VERSION | = | "2.4.8".freeze |
The version of the installed library. |
||
FieldInfo | = | Struct.new(:index, :line, :header) |
A FieldInfo Struct contains details about a field's position in the data source it was read from. CSV will pass this Struct to some blocks that make decisions based on field structure. See CSV.convert_fields() for an example.
|

DateMatcher | = | / \A(?: (\w+,?\s+)?\w+\s+\d{1,2},?\s+\d{2,4} | \d{4}-\d{2}-\d{2} )\z /x |
A Regexp used to find and convert some common Date formats. |

This Hash holds the built-in converters of CSV that can be accessed by name. You can select Converters with #convert or through the
All built-in converters transcode field data to UTF-8 before attempting a conversion. If your data cannot be transcoded to UTF-8 the conversion will fail and the field will remain unchanged. This Hash is intentionally left unfrozen and users should feel free to add values to it that can be accessed by all CSV objects. To add a combo field, the value should be an Array of names. Combo fields can be nested with other combo fields. |
||
HeaderConverters | = | { downcase: lambda { |h| h.encode(ConverterEncoding).downcase }, symbol: lambda { |h| h.encode(ConverterEncoding).downcase.gsub(/\s+/, "_"). gsub(/\W+/, "").to_sym } } |
This Hash holds the built-in header converters of
CSV that can be accessed by name. You can select HeaderConverters with #header_convert or through the
All built-in header converters transcode header data to UTF-8 before attempting a conversion. If your data cannot be transcoded to UTF-8 the conversion will fail and the header will remain unchanged.

The options used when no overrides are given by calling code. They are:
|
[R] | col_sep | The encoded |
[R] | encoding | The Encoding CSV is parsing or writing in. This will be the Encoding you receive parsed data in and/or the Encoding data will be written in. |
[R] | field_size_limit | The limit for field size, if any. See ::new for details. |
[R] | lineno | The line number of the last row read from this file. Fields with nested line-end characters will not affect this count. |
[R] | quote_char | The encoded |
[R] | row_sep | The encoded |
[R] | skip_lines | The regex marking a line as a comment. See ::new for details |
This method is a convenience for building Unix-like filters for CSV data. Each row is yielded to the provided block
which can alter it as needed. After the block returns, the row is appended
to output
altered or not.
The input
and output
arguments can be anything ::new accepts (generally String or IO objects). If not given, they default to
ARGF
and $stdout
.
The options
parameter is also filtered down to ::new after some clever key parsing. Any
key beginning with :in_
or :input_
will have that
leading identifier stripped and will only be used in the
options
Hash for the
input
object. Keys starting with :out_
or
:output_
affect only output
. All other keys are
assigned to both objects.
The :output_row_sep
option
defaults to
$INPUT_RECORD_SEPARATOR
($/
).
# File lib/csv.rb, line 1076 def self.filter(*args) # parse options for input, output, or both in_options, out_options = Hash.new, {row_sep: $INPUT_RECORD_SEPARATOR} if args.last.is_a? Hash args.pop.each do |key, value| case key.to_s when /\Ain(?:put)?_(.+)\Z/ in_options[$1.to_sym] = value when /\Aout(?:put)?_(.+)\Z/ out_options[$1.to_sym] = value else in_options[key] = value out_options[key] = value end end end # build input and output wrappers input = new(args.shift || ARGF, in_options) output = new(args.shift || $stdout, out_options) # read, yield, write input.each do |row| yield row output << row end end
This method is intended as the primary interface for reading CSV files. You pass a path
and any
options
you wish to set for the read. Each row of file will
be passed to the provided block
in turn.
The options
parameter can be anything ::new understands. This method also
understands an additional :encoding
parameter that you can use
to specify the Encoding of the data in the file
to be read. You must provide this unless your data is in Encoding.default_external.
CSV will use this to determine how to parse the
data. You may provide a second Encoding to
have the data transcoded as it is read. For example, encoding:
"UTF-32BE:UTF-8"
would read UTF-32BE data from the file
but transcode it to UTF-8 before CSV parses it.
This method wraps a String you provide, or an empty default String, in a CSV object which is passed to the provided block. You can use the block to append CSV rows to the String and when the block exits, the final String will be returned.
Note that a passed String is modfied by this method. Call dup() before passing if you need a new String.
The options
parameter can be anything ::new understands. This method
understands an additional :encoding
parameter when not passed
a String to set the base Encoding for the
output. CSV needs this hint if you plan to output
non-ASCII compatible data.
# File lib/csv.rb, line 1141 def self.generate(*args) # add a default empty String, if none was given if args.first.is_a? String io = StringIO.new(args.shift) io.seek(0, IO::SEEK_END) args.unshift(io) else encoding = (args[-1] = args[-1].dup).delete(:encoding) if args.last.is_a?(Hash) str = "" str.encode!(encoding) if encoding args.unshift(str) end csv = new(*args) # wrap yield csv # yield for appending csv.string # return final String end
This method is a shortcut for converting a single row (Array) into a CSV String.
The options
parameter can be anything ::new understands. This method
understands an additional :encoding
parameter to set the base
Encoding for the output. This method will try
to guess your Encoding from the first
non-nil
field in row
, if possible, but you may
need to use this parameter as a backup plan.
The :row_sep
option
defaults to
$INPUT_RECORD_SEPARATOR
($/
) when calling this
method.
# File lib/csv.rb, line 1171 def self.generate_line(row, options = Hash.new) options = {row_sep: $INPUT_RECORD_SEPARATOR}.merge(options) encoding = options.delete(:encoding) str = "" if encoding str.force_encoding(encoding) elsif field = row.find { |f| not f.nil? } str.force_encoding(String(field).encoding) end (new(str, options) << row).string end
This method will return a CSV instance, just like ::new, but the instance will be cached and
returned for all future calls to this method for the same data
object (tested by Object#object_id) with the same
options
.
If a block is given, the instance is passed to the block and the return value becomes the return value of the block.
# File lib/csv.rb, line 1036 def self.instance(data = $stdout, options = Hash.new) # create a _signature_ for this method call, data object and options sig = [data.object_id] + options.values_at(*DEFAULT_OPTIONS.keys.sort_by { |sym| sym.to_s }) # fetch or create the instance for this signature @@instances ||= Hash.new instance = (@@instances[sig] ||= new(data, options)) if block_given? yield instance # run block, if given, returning result else instance # or return the instance end end
This constructor will wrap either a String or IO
object passed in data
for reading and/or writing. In addition
to the CSV instance methods, several IO methods are delegated. (See ::open for a complete list.) If you pass
a String for data
, you can later retrieve it (after writing to
it, for example) with CSV.string().
Note that a wrapped String will be positioned at at the beginning (for reading). If you want it at the end (for writing), use ::generate. If you want any other positioning, pass a preset StringIO object instead.
You may set any reading and/or writing preferences in the
options
Hash. Available options are:
:col_sep
-
The String placed between each field. This String will be transcoded into the data's Encoding before parsing.
:row_sep
-
The String appended to the end of each row. This can be set to the special
:auto
setting, which requests that CSV automatically discover this from the data. Auto-discovery reads ahead in the data looking for the next"\r\n"
,"\n"
, or"\r"
sequence. A sequence will be selected even if it occurs in a quoted field, assuming that you would have the same line endings there. If none of those sequences is found,data
isARGF
,STDIN
,STDOUT
, orSTDERR
, or the stream is only available for output, the default$INPUT_RECORD_SEPARATOR
($/
) is used. Obviously, discovery takes a little time. Set manually if speed is important. Also note that IO objects should be opened in binary mode on Windows if this feature will be used as the line-ending translation can cause problems with resetting the document position to where it was before the read ahead. This String will be transcoded into the data's Encoding before parsing. :quote_char
-
The character used to quote fields. This has to be a single character String. This is useful for application that incorrectly use
'
as the quote character instead of the correct"
. CSV will always consider a double sequence this character to be an escaped quote. This String will be transcoded into the data's Encoding before parsing. :field_size_limit
-
This is a maximum size CSV will read ahead looking for the closing quote for a field. (In truth, it reads to the first line ending beyond this size.) If a quote cannot be found within the limit CSV will raise a MalformedCSVError, assuming the data is faulty. You can use this limit to prevent what are effectively DoS attacks on the parser. However, this limit can cause a legitimate parse to fail and thus is set to
nil
, or off, by default. :converters
-
An Array of names from the Converters Hash and/or lambdas that handle custom conversion. A single converter doesn't have to be in an Array. All built-in converters try to transcode fields to UTF-8 before converting. The conversion will fail if the data cannot be transcoded, leaving the field unchanged.
:unconverted_fields
-
If set to
true
, an unconverted_fields() method will be added to all returned rows (Array or CSV::Row) that will return the fields as they were before conversion. Note that:headers
supplied by Array or String were not fields of the document and thus will have an empty Array attached. :headers
-
If set to
:first_row
ortrue
, the initial row of the CSV file will be treated as a row of headers. If set to an Array, the contents will be used as the headers. If set to a String, the String is run through a call of ::parse_line with the same:col_sep
,:row_sep
, and:quote_char
as this instance to produce an Array of headers. This setting causes #shift to return rows as CSV::Row objects instead of Arrays and #read to return CSV::Table objects instead of an Array of Arrays. :return_headers
-
When
false
, header rows are silently swallowed. If set totrue
, header rows are returned in a CSV::Row object with identical headers and fields (save that the fields do not go through the converters). :write_headers
-
When
true
and:headers
is set, a header row will be added to the output. :header_converters
-
Identical in functionality to
:converters
save that the conversions are only made to header rows. All built-in converters try to transcode headers to UTF-8 before converting. The conversion will fail if the data cannot be transcoded, leaving the header unchanged. :skip_blanks
-
When set to a
true
value, CSV will skip over any rows with no content. :force_quotes
-
When set to a
true
value, CSV will quote all CSV fields it creates. :skip_lines
-
When set to an object responding to
match
, every line matching it is considered a comment and ignored during parsing. When set tonil
no line is considered a comment. If the passed object does not respond tomatch
,ArgumentError
is thrown.
See CSV::DEFAULT_OPTIONS for the default settings.
Options cannot be overridden in the instance methods for performance reasons, so be sure to set what you want here.
# File lib/csv.rb, line 1482 def initialize(data, options = Hash.new) # build the options for this read/write options = DEFAULT_OPTIONS.merge(options) # create the IO object we will read from @io = data.is_a?(String) ?

This method opens an IO object, and wraps that with CSV. This is intended as the primary interface for writing a CSV file.
You must pass a filename
and may optionally add a
mode
for Ruby's open(). You may also pass an optional Hash containing any options
::new understands as the final argument.
This method works like Ruby's open() call, in that it will pass a CSV object to a provided block and close it when the block terminates, or it will return the CSV object when no block is provided. (Note: This is different from the Ruby 1.8 CSV library which passed rows to the block. Use ::foreach for that behavior.)
You must provide a mode
with an embedded Encoding designator unless your data is in Encoding.default_external.
CSV will check the Encoding of the underlying IO object (set by the mode
you pass) to
determine how to parse the data. You may provide a second Encoding to have the data transcoded as it is read
just as you can with a normal call to IO.open. For example,
"rb:UTF-32BE:UTF-8"
would read UTF-32BE data from
the file but transcode it to UTF-8 before CSV parses
it.
An opened CSV object will delegate to many IO methods for convenience. You may call:
-
binmode()
-
binmode?()
-
close()
-
close_read()
-
close_write()
-
closed?()
-
eof()
-
eof?()
-
external_encoding()
-
fcntl()
-
fileno()
-
flock()
-
flush()
-
fsync()
-
internal_encoding()
-
ioctl()
-
isatty()
-

This method can be used to easily parse CSV out of a
String. You may either provide a block
which will be called
with each row of the String in turn, or just use the returned Array of
Arrays (when no block
is given).
You pass your str
to read from, and an optional
options
Hash containing anything ::new understands.
Use to slurp a CSV file into an Array of Arrays.
Pass the path
to the file and any options
::new understands. This method also
understands an additional :encoding
parameter that you can use
to specify the Encoding of the data in the file
to be read. You must provide this unless your data is in Encoding.default_external.
CSV will use this to determine how to parse the
data. You may provide a second Encoding to
have the data transcoded as it is read. For example, encoding:
"UTF-32BE:UTF-8"
would read UTF-32BE data from the file
but transcode it to UTF-8 before CSV parses it.
A shortcut for:
CSV.read( path, { headers: true,
converters: :numeric,
header_converters: :symbol }.merge(options) )
The primary write method for wrapped Strings and IOs, row
(an
Array or CSV::Row) is converted to CSV and appended to the data source. When a CSV::Row is passed, only the row's fields() are
appended to the output.
The data source must be open for writing.
# File lib/csv.rb, line 1635 def <<(row) # make sure headers have been assigned if header_row? and [Array, String].include? @use_headers.class parse_headers # won't read data for Array or String self << @headers if @write_headers end # handle CSV::Row objects and Hashes row = case row when self.class::Row then row.fields when Hash then @headers.map { |header| row[header] } else row end @headers = row if header_row? @lineno += 1 output = row.map(&@quote).join(@col_sep) + @row_sep # quote and separate if @io.is_a?(StringIO) and output.encoding != raw_encoding and (compatible_encoding = Encoding.compatible?(@io.string, output)) @io = StringIO.new(@io.string.force_encoding(compatible_encoding)) @io.seek(0, IO::SEEK_END) end @io << output self # for chaining end
You can use this method to install a CSV::Converters built-in, or provide a block that handles a custom conversion.
If you provide a block that takes one argument, it will be passed the field and is expected to return the converted value or the field itself. If your block takes two arguments, it will also be passed a CSV::FieldInfo Struct, containing details about the field. Again, the block should return a converted field or the field itself.
Returns the current list of converters in effect. See ::new for details. Built-in converters will be returned by name, while others will be returned as is.
Yields each row of the data source in turn.
Support for Enumerable.
The data source must be open for reading.
Identical to #convert, but for header rows.
Note that this method must be called before header rows are read to have any effect.
Returns the current list of converters in effect for headers. See ::new for details. Built-in converters will be returned by name, while others will be returned as is.
Returns true
if the next row read will be a header row.
Returns nil
if headers will not be used, true
if
they will but have not yet been read, or the actual headers after they have
been read. See ::new for details.
Returns a simplified description of the key CSV attributes in an ASCII compatible String.

Slurps the remaining rows and returns an Array of Arrays.
The data source must be open for reading.
Returns true
if headers will be returned as a row of results.
See ::new for details.
The primary read method for wrapped Strings and IOs, a single row is pulled from the data source, parsed and returned as an Array of fields (if header rows are not used) or a CSV::Row (when header rows are used).
The data source must be open for reading.
