FileParser
FileParser is a .NET library designed to read text files line-by-line, saving each line's content into basic types vars (int, double, string, etc.).
- .NET Framework 4.6 was supported until v1.4.x.
- .NET Standard 2.0 and 2.1 were supported until v1.6.x.
Nullable
is enabled from 1.6.x.
Purpose
This project was born with a very specific purpose: providing a tool with whom easily parse files with a known structure, ideally being as flexible and easy to use as C++ standard IO approach.
For those who don't understand what I mean, here's a simple Use Case (also reposited):
Given the following input.txt
, which contains an integer n (>=0) followed by n doubles and a final string,
5 1.1 3.14159265 2.2265 5.5 10 fish
A simple .cpp
snippet like the following one could process input.txt
, providing that file is selected as standard input source:
./myExecutable < input.txt > output.txt
#include <iostream>
#include <list>
#include <string>
int main()
{
int _integer;
std::string _str;
std::list<double> _list;
double _auxdouble;
// Input start;
std::cin>>_integer;
for(int i=0; i<_integer; ++i)
{
std::cin>>_auxdouble;
_list.push_back(_auxdouble);
}
std::cin>>_str;
// Input end
// Data processing
// Output start
std::cout<<_integer<<" ";
for(const double& d : _list)
std::cout<<d<<" ";
std::cout<<_str;
// Output end
return 0;
}
Seems effortless to process these kind of simple .txt
files using C++, right?
Well, using C# things are not so straight-forward, and that's why FileParser
was created for:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Globalization;
using System.IO;
using FileParser;
namespace FileParserSample
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
var cultureInfo = new CultureInfo("en-US");
CultureInfo.DefaultThreadCurrentCulture = cultureInfo;
List<double> listDouble = new List<double>();
string str;
// Input start
IParsedFile file = new ParsedFile("SimpleInput.txt");
IParsedLine firstLine = file.NextLine();
int _integer = firstLine.NextElement<int>();
for(int i=0; i<_integer; ++i)
listDouble.Add(firstLine.NextElement<double>());
str = firstLine.NextElement<string>();
// Input end
// Data Processing
// Output start
StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter("..\\CSharpSimpleOutput.txt");
using (writer)
{
writer.WriteLine(_integer + " " + string.Join(null, listDouble));
}
// Output end
}
}
}
Documentation
I've done my best to create a WIKI describing FileParser API.
Besides the WIKI, some real (own) projects where it has been used are:
Contributing, issues, suggestions, doubts
If anyone else ever happens to use FileParser, I'll be happy to accept suggestions and solve any doubts.
Just open an issue 😃
