GoWorkPro.CsvBuilder 1.0.2

CsvBuilder Utility Overview The CsvBuilder utility is a versatile .NET library developed by Samer Shahbaz, designed to simplify the process of creating CSV (Comma-Separated Values) files using DataTables. This utility streamlines CSV generation, allowing users to effortlessly transform tabular data into a widely compatible format.

Key Features DataSet Integration: Accepts a DataSet, facilitating the aggregation of multiple DataTables for CSV creation. Flexible Value Rendering: Supports a customizable event, ValueRenderEvent, enabling users to define custom parsers for values based on their data type (column or row). Multiple DataTable Support: Enables selective inclusion of columns from different DataTables by specifying the table index. Stream Handling: Efficiently manages memory streams to optimize CSV generation. Dispose Method: Implements the IDisposable interface for proper resource management. Usage

Constructor: Static Method for Creating CsvBuilder with Multiple DataTables:

Example #1 ICsvBuilder csvBuilder = CsvBuilder.Datasets(dataTable1, dataTable2, ...); Building CSV:

ICsvExtractor csvExtractor = csvBuilder.Build(tableIndex1, tableIndex2, ...);

Output Handling:

Obtain the CSV content as a Stream: MemoryStream csvStream = csvExtractor.GetStream(); Save the CSV content to a file: csvExtractor.SaveAsFile("filePath.csv");

Example #2:

// sample datasets var filters = dataSource.Tables[2]; var companyInformation = dataSource.Tables[1]; var actualDataSet = dataSource.Tables[0]; var details = dataSource.Tables[3];

// create an instance for builder and initialize var builder = CsvBuilder.Datasets(filters, companyInformation, actualDataSet);

//[optional] trigger evenet before value place in csv file builder.ValueRenderEvent += (value, e) ⇒ { return value; };

//generate a stream return builder.Build(2).GetStream();
