cesso - CSV parser for Elixir

=============================

Simple library to parse CSV lazily, especially made to parse huge exported

databases.

Examples

--------

```elixir

use Cesso

CSV.decode(~s)

  |> IO.inspect # => [["lol", "wut"]]

# string columns are supported

CSV.decode(~s)

  |> IO.inspect # => [["lol", "wut,omg"]]

# they can also span multiple lines

CSV.decode(~s)

  |> IO.inspect # => [["lol", "wut\nomg", "hue"]]

# you can also specify a different separator

CSV.decode(~s, separator: "|||")

  |> IO.inspect # => [["lol", "wut"]]

# the first row can be used as column names

CSV.decode(~s, columns: true)

  |> IO.inspect [[{ "a", "lol" }, { "b", "wut" }]]


# otherwise you can pass the column names

CSV.decode(~s, columns: ["a", "b"])

 |> IO.inspect [[{ "a", "lol" }, { "b", "wut" }]]

# you can also parse a file

CSV.decode(File.stream!("db.csv"))

```
