Great forum, been a reader for a long time. My first post comes as a
request for some help.
I am trying to process a CSV of undetermined length (want to know
how to
incorporate 'wc -l').
The CSV has 4 columns that I want to map to XML nodes.
I am having trouble writing each CSV line to an individual XML file
(100
lines = 100 XML files). The first CSV element in each line would be
the
xml file name.
Seems pretty straight forward but I am pulling my hair out trying to
make it work. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have googled
everywhere for it. I appreciate any help in advance!
How about something like this:
$ cat for_xml.csv
filename
one
two
three
$ cat csv2xml.rb
#!/usr/bin/env ruby -wKU
require "rubygems"
require "faster_csv"
FCSV.foreach(ARGV.shift, :headers => true) do |row|
File.open(row["filename"] + ".xml", "w") do |f|
# create XML data here...
end
end
$ ruby csv2xml.rb for_xml.csv
$ ls *.xml
one.xml three.xml two.xml
Hope that helps.
