.TH IM_CSV 3 "November 2000"
|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
im_csv2vips, im_vips2csv \- read and write CSV (comma separated values) files
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
#include <vips/vips.h>
|
|
|
|
int im_csv2vips( const char *filename, IMAGE *out )
|
|
|
|
int im_vips2csv( IMAGE *in, const char *filename )
|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.B im_csv2vips(3)
|
|
reads the CSV (comma separated values) data in filename, and writes the image
|
|
out in VIPS format. The output image is always 1 band (monochrome),
|
|
IM_BANDFMT_DOUBLE.
|
|
|
|
The reader is deliberately rather fussy: it will fail if there are any short
|
|
lines, or if the file is too short. It will ignore lines that are too long.
|
|
|
|
Read options can be embedded in the filename. The options can be given in any
|
|
order and are:
|
|
|
|
skip:lines-to-skip
|
|
|
|
The number of lines to skip at the start of the file. Default zero.
|
|
|
|
whi:whitespace-characters
|
|
|
|
The skippable whitespace characters. Default <space> and double quotes (").
|
|
Whitespace characters are always run together.
|
|
|
|
sep:separator-characters
|
|
|
|
The characters that separate fields. Default ;,<tab>. Separators are
|
|
never run together.
|
|
|
|
line:lines-to-read
|
|
|
|
The number of lines to read from the file. Default -1, meaning read to end of
|
|
file.
|
|
|
|
.B im_vips2csv(3)
|
|
writes the VIPS image to the file as ascii text, one line of text per
|
|
scanline. Complex numbers are written as "(real,imaginary)" and will need
|
|
extra parsing I guess.
|
|
|
|
Write options can be embedded in the filename. The options can be given in any
|
|
order and are:
|
|
|
|
sep:separator-string
|
|
|
|
The string to use to separate numbers in the output. The default is "\\t" (tab).
|
|
|
|
.SH EXAMPLES
|
|
|
|
im_csv2vips( "fred.csv:skip:58,sep:\,,line:3", out );
|
|
|
|
Will read three lines starting at line 59, with space, comma and tab as the
|
|
allowed separators. Note that the ',' has to be escaped with a backslash.
|
|
|
|
im_vips2csv fred.jpg fred.csv:sep:\t
|
|
|
|
Convert a jpeg to CSV, separating numbers with tab characters.
