Import CSV into CACHÉ
Here's a practical example of how to import data from a CSV file into InterSystems CACHÉ using ObjectScript
Assuming your CSV file is simple (e.g., comma-separated, with headers), you can use %Stream.FileCharacter to read it line by line and parse the data.
ClassMethod ImportCSV(filePath As %String) As %Status {
Set stream = ##class(%Stream.FileCharacter).%New()
Set sc = stream.LinkToFile(filePath)
If 'sc Quit sc
While 'stream.AtEnd {
Set line = stream.ReadLine()
Set fields = $ListFromString(line, ",")
// Example: Save to a persistent class
Set obj = ##class(MyApp.Data).%New()
Set obj.Name = $List(fields,1)
Set obj.Age = $List(fields,2)
Set obj.Email = $List(fields,3)
Do obj.%Save()
}
Quit $$$OK
