Dev.Util.Data

Lightweight data handling and mapping utilities for the Dev.Util ecosystem. Effortlessly bridge the gap between CSVs, DataReaders, and your domain objects.

NuGet Version

📦 Installation

dotnet add package Dev.Util.Data

✨ Features

  • 📊 CSV Serialization: Convert any IEnumerable<T> to a string-compliant CSV.
  • 📥 CSV Deserialization: Parse CSV data directly into strongly-typed object lists.
  • ⚡ IDataReader Mapping: Map database query results (IDataReader) to List<T> using reflection.
  • 🛠️ Zero Dependencies: High-performance implementation without external library bloat.

🛠 Usage Examples

1. Exporting to CSV

Generate a CSV string from your objects. Properties are automatically used as headers.

using Dev.Util.Data;

var products = new List<Product> 
{
    new Product { Id = 1, Name = "Laptop", Price = 1200.50m },
    new Product { Id = 2, Name = "Mouse", Price = 25.00m }
};

string csvData = products.ToCsv();
// Output:
// Id,Name,Price
// 1,Laptop,1200.50
// 2,Mouse,25.00

2. Importing from CSV

Parse a CSV string back into a list of objects. It automatically maps columns to property names.

using Dev.Util.Data;

string rawCsv = "Id,Name,Price\n1,Keyboard,45.00";
var list = rawCsv.FromCsv<Product>().ToList();

Console.WriteLine(list[0].Name); // "Keyboard"

3. Database to List Mapping

Stop writing manual loops to fill objects from query results.

using Dev.Util.Data;
using System.Data;

IDataReader reader = databaseCommand.ExecuteReader();

// Automatically maps columns to User properties
List<User> users = reader.ToList<User>();

4. Advanced CSV Logic

The library handles basic escaping for values containing commas or quotes.

var items = new List<LogEntry> { new LogEntry { Message = "Error, failed!" } };
string csv = items.ToCsv();
// Output: "Message" -> "Error, failed!" (escaped internally)

FromCsv<T> assumes the first row is a header. Ensure your CSV structure matches your class property names (case-insensitive).
