Data::TableReader::Decoder::CSV \- Access rows of a comma\-delimited text file
.SH "VERSION"

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
This decoder wraps an instance of either Text::CSV or Text::CSV_XS.
You may pass your own options via the \*(L"parser\*(R" attribute, which
will override the defaults of this module on a per-field basis.
.PP
This module defaults to:
.PP
.Vb 5
\&  parser => {
\&    binary => 1,
\&    allow_loose_quotes => 1,
\&    auto_diag => 2,
\&  }
.Ve
.PP
This module makes an attempt at automatic unicode support:
.IP "\(bu" 4
If the stream has a PerlIO \fBencoding()\fR on it, no additional decoding is done.
.IP "\(bu" 4
If the stream has a \s-1BOM\s0 (byte-order mark) for \s-1UTF\-8\s0 or \s-1UTF\-16,\s0 it adds that
encoding with \f(CW\*(C`binmode\*(C'\fR.
.IP "\(bu" 4
Else, it lets the parser decide.  The default Text::CSV parser will
automatically upgrade \s-1UTF\-8\s0 sequences that it finds.  (and, you can't disable
this without also disabling unicode received from \s-1IO\s0 layers, which seems like
a bug...)
.PP
Because auto-detection might need to read multiple bytes, it is possible that
for non-seekable streams (like pipes, stdin, etc) this may result in an
exception.  Only un-seekable streams beginning with \f(CW"\exEF"\fR, \f(CW"\exFE"\fR, or
\&\f(CW"\exFF"\fR will have this problem.  You can solve this by supplying an encoding
layer on the file handle (avoiding detection), setting \*(L"autodetect_encoding\*(R"
to false, buffering the entire input in a scalar and creating a file handle
from that (making it seekable), or using a file handle that supports \*(L"ungets\*(R"
like FileHandle::Unget.
.SH "ATTRIBUTES"
.IX Header "ATTRIBUTES"
.SS "parser"
.IX Subsection "parser"
An instance of Text::CSV or Text::CSV_XS or compatible, or arguments to pass to the
constructor.  Constructor arguments are passed to \s-1CSV_XS\s0 if it is installed, else \s-1CSV.\s0
.SS "autodetect_encoding"
.IX Subsection "autodetect_encoding"
Whether to look for a byte-order mark on the input.
.SS "encoding"
.IX Subsection "encoding"
If autodetection is enabled, this will first check for a byte-order mark on
the input.  Else, or afterward, it will return whatever encoding PerlIO layer
is configured on the file handle.  Setting this attribute will change the
PerlIO layer on the file handle, possibly skipping detection.
.SS "iterator"
.IX Subsection "iterator"
.Vb 1
\&  my $iterator= $decoder\->iterator;
.Ve
.PP
Return an iterator which returns each row of the table as an
arrayref.
