Converting CVS files

[HunterEC]

Guys:

I'm trying to import a 4.61GB CSV file (comma delimited, characters fields between " characters). Using the following program, it only imports the first data line.

Code: Select all  Expand view  RUN

REQUEST DBFCDX

PROCEDURE Main

   USE Datafile VIA "DBFCDX"
   APPEND FROM Csvdata DELIMITED WITH (,)
   USE
RETURN
 

Here's the sample data (all fields are on one line on the data file):
"1750384806","1","","","","BISBEE","ROBERT","","DR.","","MD","","","","","","","
","","","5219 CITY BANK PKWY","STE 35","LUBBOCK","TX","794073545","US","80678520

Assuming
lines are delimited by CRLF,
you have already opened DBF with exactly the same structure opened exclusively

you can try this code:

Code: Select all  Expand view  RUN

  hCsv     := fOpen( cCsvFile )
   do while HB_FReadLine( hCsv, @cLine, CRLF ) == 0
      aVals    := &( "{" + cLine + "}" )
      DBAPPEND()
      AEVAL( aVals, { |c,i| FieldPut( i, c ) } )
   enddo
   fclose( hCsv )

It does not work. The dbf structure is the same as that of the txt file. Here's the complete code (the meter does not work either):

Code: Select all  Expand view  RUN

#define CRLF   CHR(13) + CHR(10)

#include "Fivewin.ch"


REQUEST DBFCDX

PROCEDURE Main
   LOCAL hCsv, cCsvFile := "Data.txt"
   LOCAL oDlg2, oMeter, nActual := 0, nTotal

   USE Data VIA "DBFCDX"
   hCsv := FOPEN( cCsvFile )

   nActual := 0
   nTotal  := RECCOUNT()

   DEFINE DIALOG oDlg2 TITLE "Processing ..."

   @ 2, 1 METER oMeter  VAR nActual TOTAL nTotal OF oDLg2 SIZE 140 , 20

   ACTIVATE DIALOG oDlg2 ON PAINT EVAL({|| oMeter:settotal( nTotal ),      ;
      DisableX (@oDlg2, .T.), AddRecs (@oMeter, @nActual, @oDlg2, @hCsv)}) ;
      CENTERED

   FCLOSE( hCsv )
   USE
RETURN

   IF lDisable
      hMenu  = GetSystemMenu(oWin:hWnd, .F.)
      nCount = GetMItemCount(hMenu)
      IF oWin:ClassName() = "TDIALOG"
         RemoveMenu(hMenu, 1, nOR( MF_BYPOSITION, MF_DISABLED) )
      ELSE
         RemoveMenu(hMenu, nCount - 1, nOR( MF_BYPOSITION, MF_DISABLED) )

1. "Does not work" means what is happening?
2. Are you sure the line delimiter is CRLF?
3. First let us concentrate on making sure the main logic works and later we can add frills like meters, menus,etc.

Please post dbf structure as array
and
Post 10 lines of csv file.

Rao:

1. Not working === not importing the text file into the dbf
2. 200% sure the delimiter is CRLF

First 10 data lines:

Thank you very much Mr. Rao !

You should set all fieds type as "C" in your DBF and use APPEND FROM DELIMITED command. No need to specify the delimiter as CVS is default.

[nageswaragunupudi]

When the field types were not character type, you need to convert those columns into the correct type before saving to dbf. Now we see there are 4 date fields and we added conversion to dates.

This is a working function and conversion worked for the 10 rows.

Code: Select all  Expand view  RUN

function HunterCSV()

   local hCsv, aVals, cLine
   local cCsvFile := "hunter.csv"

   SET DATE AMERICAN
   SET CENTURY ON

   USE HUNTER NEW EXCLUSIVE

   hCsv     := fOpen( cCsvFile )
   do while HB_FReadLine( hCsv, @cLine, CRLF ) == 0
      aVals    := &( "{" + cLine + "}" )
      if Len( aVals ) == 329
         aVals[ 37 ]    := CTOD( aVals[ 37 ] )
         aVals[ 38 ]    := CTOD( aVals[ 38 ] )
         aVals[ 40 ]    := CTOD( aVals[ 40 ] )
         aVals[ 41 ]    := CTOD( aVals[ 41 ] )

         DBAPPEND()
         AEVAL( aVals, { |c,i| FieldPut( i, c ) } )
      endif
   enddo
   fclose( hCsv )

   XBROWSE()

return nil
 

You may first check this with 10 rows and then adopt the logic suitably, by providing meter, etc.

This is the browse of converted dbf with 10 rows

Yes
You can do this first and later convert character dates to datetyoe

Rao:

Thank you very much. It worked out perfectly with the sample data, with the full file (4.61GB) it does not work.

André:

With the full file (4.61GB) the APPEND FROM <filename> DELIMITED does not work.


Thank you guys.

[nageswaragunupudi]

when you say it does not work, please let us know if the program stops with any errors and if so what are the errors.

André:

With the full file (4.61GB) the APPEND FROM <filename> DELIMITED does not work.

APPEND FROM ... DELIMITED is very reliable and should work well. For this you need to set field types of field no.37,38,40 and 41 as character type width 10. Then this would work well.



Always importing from such data is not smooth. Main reason being the data not being precisely in the required format through out the file. Somewhere some deviations will the there.

is it a One time Job?
If so try someway to send me the CSV file.

[carlos vargas]

Rao,

do a few months, a user help request to import a CSV file of some megabyte since [x] Harbour had failed when processing a certain percentage, there was no way to import both xHarbour malfunction as Harbour, so much so that it turned better to make a small module in vfp for that specific process, this module hera not great but the appen from ... working properly and that is something that [x] harbor was not working properly. Now as I wrote it was a few months if not years, but in the changelog not observed work related to this incident.


import using odbc for cvs?

Rao:

When I say it does not work it means that the records are not appended. I changed the fields to character type and tried with the APPEND ... to no results. The file is in a 400MB zip file. Let me know how can I send it to you. Thank you.


Carlos:

Thanks for the tip. I also thing that xHarbour and Harbour are at fault on this topic.

[James Bott]

You could always use the low level file functions to split the file into several smaller pieces, then import each piece.

Regards,
James

HunterEC,

the file you are importing might be corrupted at some point or some data might not fit the expected pattern.

[nageswaragunupudi]

HunterEC,

the file you are importing might be corrupted at some point or some data might not fit the expected pattern.

That's my suspicion too.
I would like to work hands on once I get the file. I like that kind of work.
