CSV packages for Node.js and the web

This project provides CSV generation, parsing, transformation and serialization for Node.js.

It has been tested and used by a large community over the years and should be considered reliable. It provides every option you would expect from an advanced CSV parser and stringifier.

Project structure

This repository is a monorepo managed using Lerna. There are 5 packages managed in this codebase, even though we publish them to NPM as separate packages:

• csv (GitHub), an umbrella which is itself split into 4 packages.
• csv-generate (GitHub), a flexible generator of CSV string and Javascript objects.
• csv-parse (GitHub), a parser converting CSV text into arrays or objects.
• csv-stringify (GitHub), a stringifier converting records into a CSV text.
• stream-transform (GitHub), a transformation framework.
