> A Tool convert CSV to JSON or JS Object with NO Dependencies.

## Install

```bash
npm install --save csv2jsonfile
```
or
```bash
yarn add csv2jsonfile
```
see from [npm package](https://npmjs.org/package/csv2jsonfile).

## Usage

> note: the csv file must have header(used as key), like the example below:
```
city,level,alias
Shanghai,3,SH
Chongqing,3,SQ
Jinan,4,JN
```

### CSV to JSON
```javascript
const csv2jsonfile = require('csv2jsonfile');
const path = require('path');
const sourcePath = path.resolve(__dirname, 'data.csv');
const targetPath = path.resolve(__dirname, 'result.json');

// default convert CSV with header
csv2jsonfile(sourcePath, targetPath)
.then((time) => {
console.log(`use: ${time} ms`);
})
.catch((err) => {
console.log(err.message);
})
// result in result.json
/*
[
{
city: "Shangehai",
level: "3",
alias: "SH"
},
{
city: "Chongqing",
level: "3",
alias: "CQ"
},
]
*/
// CSV without header
csv2jsonfile(sourcePath, targetPath, { header: false })
.then((time) => {
console.log(`use: ${time} ms`);
})
.catch((err) => {
console.log(err.message);
})
```

### CSV to JavaScript Object

```javascript
var csv2jsonfile = require('csv2jsonfile');
csv2jsonfile.inline('data.csv')
.then((obj) => {
console.log(obj)
})
.catch((err) => {
console.log(err);
})
// CSV without header
csv2jsonfile.inline('data.csv', { header: false })
.then((obj) => {
console.log(obj);
})
.catch((err) => {
console.log(err);
})
```
## API

```javascript
/**
* convert csv to json file
* @param {string} sourcePath absolute path of csv file
* @param {string} targetPath absolute path of json file
* @param {object} options default { header: true }
* @return {Promise} ms usage through convert progress
*/
csv2jsonfile(sourcePath, targetPath, options?)

/**
* convert csv to javascript object
* @param {string} sourcePath absolute path of csv file
* @param {object} options default { header: true }
* @return {Promise} the object after convert
*/
csv2jsonfile.inline(sourcePath, options?)
```
## ChangeLog

### v1.2.0
1. Delete `targetPath` file if it exists before convert.(no need to manuallt clear)
2. add **No Header** CSV support.

If the CSV without header, It will be converted into **Array** each line.
E.g:

```javascript
// data.csv => data.json
// 1. without header
[
["Shanghai", "3", "SH"],
["Chongqing", "3", "CQ"],
["Jinan", "4", "JN"]
]
// with header
[
{
"city": "Shanghai",
"level": "3",
"alias": "SH"
},
{
"city": "Chongqing",
"level": "3",
"alias": "CQ"
},
{
"city": "Jinan",
"level": "4",
"alias": "JN"
}
]
```
3. fix bug: if there are no new empty line(`\n`) at the end of the file, may cause confusion.
