It's a simple manager of "records" in a text file of CSV, JSON, etc. format. It's something you would use when you don't want to run a full database, but just a list of lines in a file is not enough. You need a file with structured records.

You add this to your pom.xml:

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.yegor256</groupId>
  <artifactId>tojos</artifactId>
</dependency>

Then, to manage books.csv file:

import com.yegor256.tojos.MnCsv;
import com.yegor256.tojos.TjDefault;
import com.yegor256.tojos.Tojo;
import com.yegor256.tojos.Tojos;

Tojos tojos = new TjDefault(new MnCsv("books.csv"));
Tojo t1 = tojos.add("Object Thinking"); // unique ID
t1.set("author", "David West");
Tojo t2 = tojos.select(
    t -> t.get("author").equals("David West")
).get(0);

Each record has a unique ID, which is also the first column.
