NAME
csvpy - csvpy Documentation
DESCRIPTION
Loads a CSV file into a agate.csv.Reader object and then drops into a Python shell so the user can inspect the data however they see fit:
usage: csvpy [-h] [-d DELIMITER] [-t] [-q QUOTECHAR] [-u {0,1,2,3}] [-b]
[-p ESCAPECHAR] [-z FIELD_SIZE_LIMIT] [-e ENCODING] [-S] [-v]
[-V] [--dict] [--agate]
[FILE]
Load a CSV file into a CSV reader and then drop into a Python shell.
positional arguments:
FILE The CSV file to operate on. If omitted, will accept
input on STDIN.
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--dict Load the CSV file into a DictReader.
--agate Load the CSV file into an agate table.
This tool will automatically use the IPython shell if it is installed, otherwise it will use the running Python shell.
NOTE:
Due to platform limitations, csvpy does not accept file
input on STDIN.
See also: ../common_arguments.
