class-from-dataset

A simple tool to use a dataset, (e.g. CSV), to generate a .class file with properties based on the header.

The idea is that sometimes you have data with so many columns that it takes way to long to create it manually.

This tool creates the class and a starting point of properties, so the programmer can start working with the data imediatly

Basic functionality

Feed tha program with a dataset it recognizes with headers and some data, (min. 5 lines of data), and it will create a class after doing a "best guess" for which datatype it should use for the diffrent columns, (if it's less than 60% certain, it will deem it a string by default)

It also checks the method names for "illigal words", (like "var"), and uppercases the first letter

Usage

It uses the csv -file "input.csv", which must have headers and at least 5 lines of data, and creates a class with properies in the "output.txt"-file, (se below for example output)

Testing Dataset

While testing, this program uses an astronomical dataset, because it has coloumns of varying types of data.

Sample input (headers)

id,hip,hd,hr,gl,bf,proper,ra,dec,dist,pmra,pmdec,rv,mag,absmag,spect,ci,x,y,z,vx,vy,vz,rarad,decrad,pmrarad,pmdecrad,bayer,flam,con,comp,comp_primary,base,lum,var,var_min,var_max

Sample output

class 
{
	public int Id { get; set; }
	public int Hip { get; set; }
	public int Hd { get; set; }
	public string Hr { get; set; }
	public string Gl { get; set; }
	public string Bf { get; set; }
	public string Proper { get; set; }
	public decimal Ra { get; set; }
	public decimal Dec { get; set; }
	public decimal Dist { get; set; }
	public decimal Pmra { get; set; }
	public decimal Pmdec { get; set; }
	public decimal Rv { get; set; }
	public decimal Mag { get; set; }
	public decimal Absmag { get; set; }
	public string Spect { get; set; }
	public decimal Ci { get; set; }
	public decimal X { get; set; }
	public decimal Y { get; set; }
	public decimal Z { get; set; }
	public decimal Vx { get; set; }

	public string Con { get; set; }
	public int Comp { get; set; }
	public int Comp_primary { get; set; }
	public string Base_ { get; set; }
	public decimal Lum { get; set; }
	public string Var_ { get; set; }
	public string Var_min { get; set; }
	public string Var_max { get; set; }
