I am using following code:
CsvSchema bootstrap = CsvSchema.emptySchema().withHeader();
ObjectMapper mapper = new CsvMapper();
File csvFile = new File("input.csv"); // or from String, URL etc
Object user = mapper.reader(?).withSchema(bootstrap).readValue(new File("data.csv"));
mapper.writeValue(new File("data.json"), user);
It throws an error in my IDE saying cannot find symbol method withSchema(CsvSchema)
but why? I have used the code from some examples.
I don't know what to write into mapper.reader()
as I want to convert any CSV file.
How can I convert any CSV file to JSON and save it to the disk?
What to do next? The examples
I think, you should use MappingIterator
to solve your problem. See below example:
import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Map;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.MappingIterator;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.dataformat.csv.CsvMapper;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.dataformat.csv.CsvSchema;
public class JacksonProgram {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
File input = new File("/x/data.csv");
File output = new File("/x/data.json");
List<Map<?, ?>> data = readObjectsFromCsv(input);
writeAsJson(data, output);
}
public static List<Map<?, ?>> readObjectsFromCsv(File file) throws IOException {
CsvSchema bootstrap = CsvSchema.emptySchema().withHeader();
CsvMapper csvMapper = new CsvMapper();
MappingIterator<Map<?, ?>> mappingIterator = csvMapper.reader(Map.class).with(bootstrap).readValues(file);
return mappingIterator.readAll();
}
public static void writeAsJson(List<Map<?, ?>> data, File file) throws IOException {
ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
mapper.writeValue(file, data);
}
}
