Add csv library support #260
Comments
We do actually have a pure-luau CSV parser of sorts as a lune script. See .lune/csv_printer.luau. Ideally this sort of thing is intended to be done as a library, I do not see much reason to include this in the runtime. |
As someone who's recently worked with 150k+ row csvs in Lune, I'd also appreciate dedicated runtime support for (fast) Rust-based My Lune-based impl. w/ string.splits took an average of 6+ seconds to parse and split the file into a 2d array-like table, whereas my string.split() + generalized character iteration approach took upwards of 15 seconds (before i ctrl Ced it) w/ the same file. Although csvs are kinda old fashioned, having a fast way to read or write to csv is a pretty important feature to have in a runtime. |
I still personally think this kind of thing should be implemented in the language itself, or if performance is really imperative, using FFI. |
This is really just an example file and is meant to be easy to read - not parse all CSV files correctly. I wouldn't mind adding CSV support to
|
I would like to be able to use Lune for manipulating my LocalizationTables. I don't really want to write my own Luau CSV parser, it's somewhat annoying.
