CSV parsing
(scm csv) splits a single line of CSV-style text into its fields. It takes the line and a separator, strips a pair of surrounding double-quotes from each field, and returns the fields as a vector.
(import (scm csv))
(csv-line->fields "a,b,c" ",") ;; => #("a" "b" "c")
(csv-line->fields "\"x\",\"y\",z" ",") ;; => #("x" "y" "z")Pass the symbol trim as a third argument to also trim whitespace from each field:
(csv-line->fields "a, b , c" "," 'trim) ;; => #("a" "b" "c")It operates on one line at a time and splits purely on the separator, so a separator character inside a quoted field is not treated specially — use a fuller parser if your data embeds the separator in quoted values.
