catap / jaql

Jaql is a query language designed for Javascript Object Notation (JSON), a data format that has become popular because of its simplicity and modeling flexibility. Jaql is primarily used to analyze large-scale semi-structured data. Core features include user extensibility and parallelism. In addition to modeling semi-structured data, JSON simplifies extensibility. Hadoop's Map-Reduce is used for parallelism.

Improve escaping support for the conversion from/to CSV #84

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
For the conversion from JSON to CSV, if escape option is true, the

following escapings happen:

1. " is escaped into "".

2. Some characters are escaped into 2-character escape sequences such as \t (2

characters).

3. Some ISO control characters are escaped into 6-character escape
sequences such

as \u008a.

For the conversion from CSV to JSON, escape option is in effect only if

quoted option is true. 

1. "" is unescaped into ". 

2. 2-character escape sequences such as \t (2 characters)

are unescaped into the character represented by the escape sequence.

3. 6-character escape sequences such as \u008a are unescaped into the

unicode character represented by the escape sequence.

For a input CSV file containing "\\" (4 characters):

1. \ (1 backslash character) is the unescaped result if both quoted option and

escape option are true. 

2. \\ (2 backslash characters) is the unescaped result if quoted option is

true and escape option is false. 

3. "\\" (1 quotation mark, 2 backslash characters and 1 quotation mark) is
the unescaped result if quoted option is false.
