Summary

Explode provides an extension function to the String class to split strings via a specified character or string. Useful for processing Comma Delimited (CSV) content.

Support is provided for text delimiters, for example, file that make use of the " character enclose strings that contain the field separator.

Examples

Namespace: Sprocket.Text.Explode

Example with default field delimiters

string s = "one,\"two.1,two.2\",three";

var sr = s.Explode(new ExplodeOptions());
List<string> sl = sr.Cells.ToStringList();

Assert.Equal(3, sl.Count);
Assert.Equal("one", sl[0]);
Assert.Equal("two.1,two.2", sl[1]);
Assert.Equal("three", sl[2]);

Example with a multiple character field delimiter

string s = "one_x_two_x_three";

var delim = new Delimiters("_x_");
var opts = new ExplodeOptions();
opts.Delimiters = delim;
var sr = s.Explode(opts);
List<string> sl = sr.Cells.ToStringList();

Assert.Equal(3, sl.Count);
Assert.Equal("one", sl[0]);
Assert.Equal("two", sl[1]);
Assert.Equal("three", sl[2]);
