Filtering and updating a csv file

[sangamon]

@Maia

In fact I use scala-csv for the writing but for reading I use readCsvDatabase with a case class

In this case, you should use scala-csv as the “backend” for reading, as well. The snippet from the other thread would change to

def parseRow(row: Seq[String]): Data = ???

reader // a scala-csv CSVReader
  .iterator
  .drop(1)
  .map(parseRow)
  .filter(pred)
  .toList

…thus offloading the raw CSV column parsing to scala-csv, leaving only the conversion to Data to be implemented.

It may still be worth looking into CSV libraries that automagically handle row to case class conversion, as suggested by others, of course.
