DESCRIPTION
This distribution contains the following CLI utilities:
FUNCTIONS
csv_add_field(%args) -> [status, msg, result, meta]
Add a field to CSV file.
Your Perl code (-e) will be called for each row (excluding the header row) and should return the value for the new field. $main::row
is available and contains the current row, while $main::rownum
contains the row number (2 means the first data row). Field will be added as the last field.
This function is not exported.
Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):
eval* => str
Perl code to do munging.
field* => str
Field name.
filename* => filename
Input CSV file.
Returns an enveloped result (an array).
First element (status) is an integer containing HTTP status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element (msg) is a string containing error message, or 'OK' if status is 200. Third element (result) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information.
Return value: (any)
csv_avg(%args) -> [status, msg, result, meta]
Output a summary row which are arithmetic averages of data rows.
This function is not exported.
Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):
filename* => filename
Input CSV file.
with_data_rows => bool
Whether to also output data rows.
Returns an enveloped result (an array).

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):
field* => str
Field name.
filename* => filename
Input CSV file.

Perl code (-e) will be called for each row (excluding the header row) and $_
will contain the value of the field, and the Perl code is expected to modify it. $main::row
will contain the current row array and $main::rownum
contains the row number (2 means the first data row).
