如何在没有 pandas 的情况下读取、格式化、排序和保存 csv 文件

Question

• 给定文件test.csv中的以下示例数据

27-Mar-12,8.25,8.35,8.17,8.19,9801989
26-Mar-12,8.16,8.25,8.12,8.24,8694416
23-Mar-12,8.05,8.12,7.95,8.09,8149170

• 如何在不使用pandas 的情况下解析此文件？
  1. 打开文件
  2. 将日期列格式化为datetime日期格式字符串
  3. 按第 0 列、日期列对所有行进行排序
  4. 保存回同一个文件，并带有日期列的标题
• 使用pandas，这可以通过一行（长）代码完成，不包括导入。
  • 需要注意的是，如果不使用date_parser，使用parse_date可能会很慢。

import pandas as pd

(pd.read_csv('test.csv', header=None, parse_dates=[0], date_parser=lambda t: pd.to_datetime(t, format='%d-%b-%y'))
 .rename(columns={0: 'date'})
 .sort_values('date')
 .to_csv('test.csv', index=False))

• 编写此问题和答案是为了填补 Stack Overflow 上的知识内容空白。
• 使用pandas 来完成这项任务非常简单。
• 在没有pandas 的情况下，想出所有必要的部分来创建一个完整的解决方案是非常困难的。
• 这应该对任何对此任务感兴趣的人以及禁止使用pandas 的学生有所帮助。
• 我不介意看到 numpy 的解决方案，但问题的主要点是仅使用标准库中的包来完成此任务。

三个答案都是可以接受的问题的解决方案。

Answer 1

• 到目前为止，pandas 是解析和清理文件的更简单工具。
• 需要 1 行 pandas，占用 11 行代码，还需要 for-loop。
• 这需要以下包和函数
  • csv & datetime
  • Methods of File Objects: .seek & .truncate
  • Sorting: How To
• 最初，list() 用于解压缩 csv.reader 对象，但已被删除，以更新日期值，同时迭代 reader。
• 可以向sorted 提供自定义键函数以自定义排序顺序，但我看不到从lambda 表达式返回值的方法。
  • 最初使用 key=lambda row: datetime.strptime(row[0], '%Y-%m-%d')，但已被删除，因为更新的日期列不包含月份名称。
  • 如果日期列包含月份名称，则如果没有自定义排序键，它将无法正确排序。

import csv
from datetime import datetime

# open the file for reading and writing
with open('test1.csv', mode='r+', newline='') as f:

   # create a reader and writer opbject
    reader, writer = csv.reader(f), csv.writer(f)
    
    data = list()
    # iterate through the reader and update column 0 to a datetime date string
    for row in reader:

        # update column 0 to a datetime date string
        row[0] = datetime.strptime(row[0], "%d-%b-%y").date().isoformat()
        
        # append the row to data
        data.append(row)

    # sort all of the rows, based on date, with a lambda expression
    data = sorted(data, key=lambda row: row[0])

    # change the stream position to the given byte offset
    f.seek(0)

    # truncate the file size
    f.truncate()

    # add a header to data
    data.insert(0, ['date', 1, 2, 3, 4, 5])

    # write data to the file
    writer.writerows(data)

Answer 2

正如 OP 所述，Pandas 让这一切变得简单；另一种方法是使用DictReader 和DictWriter 选项；它仍然比使用 Pandas 更冗长（这里的抽象之美，Pandas 为我们完成了繁重的工作）。

import csv
from datetime import datetime
from operator import itemgetter

with open("test.csv") as csvfile:
    fieldnames = ["date", 1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
    reader = csv.DictReader(csvfile, fieldnames=fieldnames)
    mapping = list(reader)
    mapping = [
        {
            key: datetime.strptime(value, ("%d-%b-%y"))
                 if key == "date" else value
            for key, value in entry.items()
        }
        for entry in mapping
    ]

    mapping = sorted(mapping, key=itemgetter("date"))

with open("test.csv", mode="w", newline="") as csvfile:
    fieldnames = mapping[0].keys()
    writer = csv.DictWriter(csvfile, fieldnames=fieldnames)

    writer.writeheader()
    for row in mapping:
        writer.writerow(row)

由于事先不知道字段名称，我们可以使用csvreader 和csvwriter 选项：

with open("test.csv") as csvfile:
    reader = csv.reader(csvfile, delimiter=",")
    mapping = dict(enumerate(reader))
    num_of_cols = len(mapping[0])
    fieldnames = ["date" if n == 0 else n
                  for n in range(num_of_cols)]
    mapping = [
               [ datetime.strptime(val, "%d-%b-%y")
                 if ind == 0 else val
                 for ind, val in enumerate(value)
               ]
             for key, value in mapping.items()
              ]

    mapping = sorted(mapping, key=itemgetter(0))

with open("test.csv", mode="w", newline="") as csvfile:
    csvwriter = csv.writer(csvfile, delimiter=",")
    csvwriter.writerow(fieldnames)
    for row in mapping:
        csvwriter.writerow(row)

Answer 3

尽可能少地使用导入：

from datetime import datetime

def format_date(date: str) -> str:

    formatted_date = datetime.strptime(date, "%d-%b-%y").date().isoformat()

    return formatted_date


# read in the CSV
with open("test.csv", "r") as file:

    lines = file.readlines()

    records = [[value for value in line.split(",")] for line in lines]

# reformat the first field in each record
for record in records:
    record[0] = format_date(record[0])

# having formatted the dates, sort records by first (date) field:
sorted_records = sorted(records, key = lambda r: r[0])

# join values with commas once more, removing newline characters
prepared_lines = [",".join(record).strip("\n") for record in sorted_records]

# create a header row
field_names = "date,1,2,3,4,5"

# prepend the header row
prepared_lines.insert(0, field_names)

prepared_data = "\n".join(prepared_lines)

# write out the CSV
with open("test.csv", "w") as file:
    file.write(prepared_data)
