csv-simple-stream v0.4.0

#csv-simple-stream

A ligthweight simple-stream transform for parsing a character stream.

Example that creates a csv stream from a file and print rows 10 to 20:

var csvStream = require('csv-simple-stream')
var streamUtils = require('simple-stream')

var stream = csvStream.fromFile('input.csv', {from: 10, to: 20})
streamUtils.forEach(stream, console.log)

The resulting simple-stream can be used with the simple-stream module to apply transformations or write to a sink.
