So, i'm learning ruby and i've been stuck with this for a long time and i need some help.
I need to write to a CSV file from two different CSV files and i have the code to do it but in 2 different functions and i need the two files together in one.
So thats the code:
require 'CSV'
class Plantas <
Struct.new( :code)
end
class Especies <
Struct.new(:id, :type, :code, :name_es, :name_ca, :name_en, :latin_name, :customer_id )
end
def ecode
f_inECODE = File.open("pflname.csv", "r") #get EPPOCODE
f_out=CSV.open("plantas.csv", "w ", :headers => true) #outputfile
f_inECODE.each_line do |line|
fields = line.split(',')
newPlant = Plantas.new
newPlant.code = fields[2].tr_s('"', '').strip #eppocode
plant = [newPlant.code] #linies a imprimir
f_out << plant
end
end
def data
f_dataspices=File.open("spices.csv", "r")
f_out=CSV.open("plantas.csv", "w ", :headers => true) #outputfile
f_dataspices.each_line do |line|
fields = line.split(',')
newEspecies = Especies.new
newEspecies.id = fields[0].tr_s('"', '').strip
newEspecies.type = fields[1].tr_s('"', '').strip
newEspecies.code = fields[2].tr_s('"', '').strip
newEspecies.name_es = fields[3].tr_s('"', '').strip
newEspecies.name_ca = fields[4].tr_s('"', '').strip
newEspecies.name_en = fields[5].tr_s('"', '').strip
newEspecies.latin_name = fields[6].tr_s('"', '').strip
newEspecies.customer_id = fields[7].tr_s('"', '').strip
especia = [newEspecies.id,newEspecies.type,newEspecies.code,newEspecies.name_es,newEspecies.name_ca,newEspecies.name_en,newEspecies.latin_name,newEspecies.customer_id]
f_out << especia
end
end
data
ecode
And the wished output would be like this: species.csv ecode.csv
"id","type","code","name_es","name_ca","name_en","latin_name","customer_id","ecode"
7205,"DunSpecies",NULL,"0","0","0","",11630,LEECO
7437,"DunSpecies",NULL,"0","Xicoira","0","",5273,LEE3O
7204,"DunSpecies",NULL,"0","0","0","",11630,L4ECO
And the actual is this:
"id","type","code","name_es","name_ca","name_en","latin_name","customer_id"
7205,"DunSpecies",NULL,"0","0","0","",11630
7437,"DunSpecies",NULL,"0","Xicoira","0","",5273
7204,"DunSpecies",NULL,"0","0","0","",11630
(without ecode)
From one side i have the ecode and from the other the whole data i just need to put it together.
I'd like to put all together in the same file (plantas.csv) I did in two different functions because I don't know how to put all together with one foreach I would like to put all in the same function but I don't how doing it. If someone could help me to get this code all in one function and writing the results in the same file I would be so grateful.
An example of the input of the file ecode.csv (in which I just want the ecode field) is this:
"""identifier"",""datatype"",""code"",""lang"",""langno"",""preferred"",""status"",""creation"",""modification"",""country"",""fullname"",""authority"",""shortname"""
"""N1952"",""PFL"",""LEECO"",""la"",""1"",""0"",""N"",""06/06/2000"",""09/03/2010"","""",""Leea coccinea non"",""Planchon"",""Leea coccinea non"""
"""N2974"",""PFL"",""LEECO"",""en"",""1"",""0"",""N"",""06/06/2000"",""21/02/2011"","""",""west Indian holly"","""",""West Indian holly"""
An example of the input of the file data.csv (in which I want all the fields) is this:
"id","type","code","name_es","name_ca","name_en","latin_name","customer_id"
7205,"DunSpecies",NULL,"0","0","0","",11630
7437,"DunSpecies",NULL,"0","Xicoira","0","",5273
And the way to link both files is by creating a third file in which i write everything in it! At least this is my idea, i dont know if there is a simpler way to do it.
Thanks!

Cleaning up ecode.csv
made it more challenging, but here is what I came up with:
In case, data.csv
and ecode.csv
are matched by row numbers:
require 'csv'
data = CSV.read('data.csv', headers: true).to_a
headers = data.shift << 'eppocode'
double_quoted_ecode = CSV.read('ecode.csv')
ecodeIO = StringIO.new
ecodeIO.puts double_quoted_ecode.to_a
ecodeIO.rewind
ecode = CSV.parse(ecodeIO, headers: true)
CSV.open('plantas.csv', 'w ') do |plantas|
plantas << headers
data.each.with_index do |row, idx|
planta = row [ecode['code'][idx]]
plantas << planta
end
end
Using your example files, this gives you the following plantas.csv
:
id,type,code,name_es,name_ca,name_en,latin_name,customer_id,eppocode
7205,DunSpecies,NULL,0,0,0,"",11630,LEECO
7437,DunSpecies,NULL,0,Xicoira,0,"",5273,LEECO
In case, entries are matched by data.csv
's id
and ecode.csv
's identifier
:
require 'csv'
data = CSV.read('data.csv', headers: true)
headers = data.headers << 'eppocode'
double_quoted_ecode = CSV.read('ecode.csv')
ecodeIO = StringIO.new
ecodeIO.puts double_quoted_ecode.to_a
ecodeIO.rewind
ecode = CSV.parse(ecodeIO, headers: true)
CSV.open('plantas.csv', 'w ') do |plantas|
plantas << headers
data.each do |row|
id = row['id']
ecode_row = ecode.find { |entry| entry['identifier'] == id } || {}
planta = row << ecode_row['code']
plantas << planta
end
end
I hope you find this helpful.

Data
Let's begin by creating the two CSV files. To make the results easier to follow I have arbitrarily removed some of the fields in each file, and changed one field value.
ecode.csv
ecode = '"""identifier"",""datatype"",""code"",""lang"",""langno"",""preferred"",""status"",""creation"",""modification"",""country"",""fullname"",""authority"",""shortname""" """N1952"",""PFL"",""LEECO"",""la"",""1"",""0"",""N"",""06/06/2000"",""09/03/2010"","""",""Leea coccinea non"",""Planchon"",""Leea coccinea non""" """N2974"",""PFL"",""LEEC1"",""en"",""1"",""0"",""N"",""06/06/2000"",""21/02/2011"","""",""west Indian holly"","""",""West Indian holly"""'
File.write('ecode.csv', ecode)
#=> 452
data.csv
data = '"id","type","code","customer_id"\n7205,"DunSpecies",NULL,11630\n7437,"DunSpecies",NULL,,5273'
File.write('data.csv', data)
#=> 90
Code
CSV.open('plantas.csv', 'w') do |csv_out|
converter = ->(s) { s.delete('"') }
epposcode = CSV.foreach('ecode.csv',
headers:true,
header_converters: [converter],
converters: [converter]
).map { |csv| csv["code"] }
headers = CSV.open('data.csv', &:readline) << 'epposcode'
csv_out << headers
CSV.foreach('data.csv', headers:true) do |row|
csv_out << (row << epposcode.shift)
end
end
#=> 90
Result
Let's see what was written.
puts File.read('plantas.csv')
id,type,code,customer_id,epposcode
7205,DunSpecies,NULL,11630,LEECO
7437,DunSpecies,NULL,,5273,LEEC1
Explanation
The structure we want is the following.
CSV.open('plantas.csv', 'w') do |csv_out|
epposcode = <array of 'code' field values from 'ecode.csv'>
headers = <headers from 'data.csv' to which 'epposcode' is appended>
csv_out << headers
CSV.foreach('data.csv', headers:true) do |row|
csv_out << <row of 'data.csv' to which an element of epposcode is appended>>
end
end
CSV::open is the main CSV method for writing files and CSV::foreach is generally my method-of-choice for reading CSV files. I could have instead written the following.
csv_out = CSV.open('plantas.csv', 'w')
epposcode = <array of 'code' field values from 'ecode.csv'>
headers = <headers from 'data.csv' to which 'epposcode' is appended>
csv_out << headers
CSV.foreach('data.csv', headers:true) do |row|
csv_out << <row of 'data.csv' to which an element of epposcode is appended>>
end
csv_out.close
but using a block is convenient because the file is closed before returning from the block.
It is convenient to use a converter for both the header fields and the row fields:
converter = ->(s) { s.delete('"') }
This is a proc (I've defined a lambda) that removes double quotes from strings. They are specified as two of foreach
's optional arguments:
epposcode = CSV.foreach('ecode.csv',
headers:true,
header_converters: [converter],
converters: [converter]
)
Search for "Data Converters" in the CSV doc.
We invoke foreach
without a block to return an enumerator, so it can be chained to map
:
epposcode = CSV.foreach('ecode.csv',
headers:true,
header_converters: [converter],
converters: [converter]
).map { |csv| csv["code"] }
For the example,
epposcode
#=> ["LEECO", "LEEC1"]
