IFS separate a string like “Hello”,“World”,“this”,“is, a boring”, “line”

问题

I'm trying to parse a .csv file and I have some problems with IFS. The file contains lines like this:

"Hello","World","this","is, a boring","line"

The columns are separated with a comma, so I tried to explode the line with this code:

IFS=, read -r -a tempArr <<< "$line"

But I get this output:

"Hello"
"World"
"this"
"is
a boring"
"line"

I understand why, so I tried some other commands but I don't get my expected output.

IFS=\",\"
IFS=\",
IFS=',\"'
IFS=,\"

Every time the third element is seperated in 2 parts. How can I use IFS to seperate the string to 5 parts like this?

"Hello"
"World" 
"this" 
"is, a boring" 
"line"

回答1:

give this a try:

sed 's/","/"\n"/g' <<<"${line}"

sed has a search and replace command s which is using regex to search pattern.

The regex replaces , in "," with new line char.

As a consequence each element is on a separate line.

You may wish to use the gawk with FPAT to define what makes a valid string -

Input :

"hello","world","this,is"

Script :

gawk -n 'BEGIN{FS=",";OFS="\n";FPAT="([^,]+)|(\"[^\"]+\")"}{$1=$1;print $0}' somefile.csv

Output :

"hello"
"world"
"this,is"

bashlib provides a csvline function. Assuming you've installed it somewhere in your PATH:

line='"Hello","World","this","is, a boring","line"'

source bashlib
csvline <<<"$line"
printf '%s\n' "${CSVLINE[@]}"

...output from the above being:

Hello
World
this
is, a boring
line

# Parse a CSV record from standard input, storing the fields in the CSVLINE array.

# By default, a single line of input is read and parsed into comma-delimited fields.
# Fields can optionally contain double-quoted data, including field delimiters.
#
# A different field delimiter can be specified using -d.  You can use -D
