Meteor CSV reader/writer

A Meteor isomorphic CSV reader/writer

• Papa Parse for client side : http://papaparse.com/
• baby parse for server side.
• Usage of fibers to read csv source line by line on server side

Quickstart

given a csv string like that

1;01;ozan;OZAN;Ozan;O250;OSN;01190;284;01284;2;26;6;618;469;500;94;660;4.91667;46.3833;2866;51546;+45456;462330;170;205;14126;8823;26916

You can use server-side code synchronous to load line by line the csv file

CSV.readCsvFileLineByLine('simple.csv', function (line, index, rawParsedLine) {
    lines.push(line);
});

lines[0][1] === "01";

If you got more complex CSV files, with headers and escaping chars,

"id":"firstName":"lastName"
"1":"jimi":"hendrix"
"2":"jim":"morrison"

you can simply add options to make it simple (refer to papa docs : http://papaparse.com/docs#config)

CSV.readCsvFileLineByLine(process.env.PWD + '/vicious.csv', {
    headers: true,
    delimiter: ":",
}, function (line) {
    lines.push(line);
});

lines[0].firstName === "foo";
lines[1].firstName === "jim";
