CSV Source

The UXDM CSV source allows you to source data from a comma seperated file (CSV). Since many systems contain export tools that can output data in CSV format, this source can be very useful for indirectly sourcing data from external systems.

Creating

To create a new CSV source, you must provide it with the file path of CSV file you wish to use. You must ensure the first line of the CSV file contains the field names.

The following example creates a CSV source object, using a CSV file called users.csv in the same directory.

$csvFile = __DIR__.'/users.csv';
$csvSource = new CSVSource($csvFile);

Assigning to migrator

To use the CSV source as part of a UXDM migration, you must assign it to the migrator. This process is the same for most sources.

$migrator = new Migrator;
$migrator->setSource($csvSource);
