Outdated egg!

This is an egg for CHICKEN 4, the unsupported old release. You're almost certainly looking for the CHICKEN 5 version of this egg, if it exists.

If it does not exist, there may be equivalent functionality provided by another egg; have a look at the egg index. Otherwise, please consider porting this egg to the current version of CHICKEN.

make-csv-writer-maker #!optional WRITER-SPECprocedure: See writer-spec below for the default WRITER-SPEC.

make-csv-writer

make-csv-writer OUT-OR-STR #!optional WRITER-SPECprocedure

Returns a procedure of 1 argument, a scheme-object, the ROW-DATA-OBJECT.

OUT-OR-STR is output-port or string. A string is interpreted as a pathname to yield an output-port.

See writer-spec below for the default WRITER-SPEC.

When the ROW-DATA-OBJECT is a list then it is interpreted as row data. Otherwise assumed to be a comment.

The ROW-DATA-OBJECT argument will be converted to an output string, according to the associated csv-writer-spec, and printed to the associated output-port.

NEWLINE-CHAR is #t, cr, lf, or crlf.

COMMENT-CHAR is #f, or a character. #f means no comment support.

QUOTE-DOUBLING-ESCAPES? is a boolean.

QUOTE-CONTROLS? is a boolean, quoting strings with iso-control characters?

ALWAYS-QUOTE? is a boolean.

csv-writer-spec?

list->csv

list->csv LS #!optional WRITER-OR-OUTprocedure

LS is a list-of list | string, a list of row-item.

WRITER-OR-OUT is a csv-writer or output-port. Default is the (current-output-port). Note that when an output-port is specified the default csv-writer-spec will be used.

When the current row-item is a string, and not a list, then it is treated as a line-comment. Note that comments are processed only when the associated csv-writer-spec comment-char is a character.

;assumes string output & comment-char is #\#
(list->csv '((1 22 333) "a comment" (11 2222 333333)))
;=> "\"1\",\"22\",\"333\"\n#a comment\n\"11\",\"2222\",\"333333\"\n"
