# sortcsv
Tool to sort csv files by named columns.
## NB
Deprecated
## Example
The [example](example_sort) script shows how to use it to sort with multiple sub-sort columns.
```shell
$ ./example_sort
Sort by Last, First, Email
--
First,Last,Email
Mary,Bunce,[email protected]
John,Doe,[email protected]
Mary,O'Henry,[email protected]
Mary,O'Henry,[email protected]
Adam,Van der Oos,[email protected]
Sort by First, Last, Email
--
First,Last,Email
Adam,Van der Oos,[email protected]
John,Doe,[email protected]
Mary,Bunce,[email protected]
Mary,O'Henry,[email protected]
Mary,O'Henry,[email protected]
```
## Installation
Requires Go 1.8+ because it uses the new [`sort.Slice`](https://golang.org/pkg/sort/#Slice) feature.
`go get jw4.us/sortcsv`
## Usage
`sortcsv sort`
```
NAME:
sortcsv sort -
USAGE:
sortcsv sort [command options] [arguments...]
OPTIONS:
--infile value, --in value, -i value Defaults to stdin (-) if not specified. (default: -)
--outfile value, --out value, -o value Defaults to stdout (-) if not specified. (default: -)
--sortby value, -s value Columns to sort by, repeat for sub-sort
--tab, -t Input is tab delimited, rather than comma delimited (default: false)
--help, -h show help (default: false)
```
If `--infile` or `--outfile` are not specified they default to `stdin` and `stdout` respectively.
The `--sortby` flag can be specified repeatedly to add sub-sorting.
