csvkit

Suite of command-line tools for working with CSV

About csvkit

A suite of command-line tools for converting to and working with CSV, the king of tabular file formats, including utilities for cutting columns, grep-like searches, joins, SQL queries and statistics. Its open development model means documentation, plugins and community support are publicly available, and organisations can contribute fixes upstream instead of waiting on a vendor roadmap. For many teams it becomes long-lived infrastructure: simple to back up, straightforward to automate and independent of per-seat pricing as usage grows steadily.
