How to get row count of csv using ObjectScript

Hi,

     I have written a procedure with the help of object scripting to export data to a csv file. There is more data than  the csv limit.

Can anyone please tell me how to get the row count of csv file using object scripting, so that I can write an if condition and write to a second csv file.

Please find the code writing to the csv given below.

while (ind '= ""){
set row = ^CacheTemp(repid,"MAIN",ind)
use filemain write row,!
; Get next row index for MAIN report
set ind = $order(^CacheTemp(repid,"MAIN",ind))
} close filemain
}

 

 

Thanks

Jude

Here are a couple of ways for getting information about a file:

Get file size:

set file=##class(%Stream.FileBinary).%New()
write file.LinkToPath("C:\temp\test.csv")
write file.Size

Get number of lines:

set file=##class(%Stream.FileBinary).%New()
write file.LinkToPath("C:\temp\test.csv")
while 'file.AtEnd {
    do file.ReadLine()
    set linecount=$i(linecount)
}
write linecount

Hi,

       I need to write to different csv files based on a column data. So I need to check the column data before writing to file.

Here is the code to write the data to file.

while (ind '= ""){
set row = ^CacheTemp(repid,"MAIN",ind)
use filemain write row,!
; Get next row index for MAIN report
set ind $order(^CacheTemp(repid,"MAIN",ind))
} close filemain
}

Thanks

For example:

set maxrows = 1000
set currentrow = 0
while (ind '= ""){
    set row = ^CacheTemp(repid,"MAIN",ind)
    if currentrow>maxrows  {
        set currentrow = 0
       // swap files
    }
    set currentrow  = currentrow  + 1
    use filemain write row,!
    ; Get next row index for MAIN report
    set ind = $order(^CacheTemp(repid,"MAIN",ind))
}
close filemain

Are you by chance exporting SQL queries to CSV? If so it can be done automatically:

do ##class(%SQL.Statement).%ExecDirect(,"select * from ...")).%DisplayFormatted(100, filename)

This will do exactly what you want any problems give us shout

ClassMethod ImpCSV(fileName As %String = "C:\filepath where csv file is")
{
	;;Refresh globals data at the begin of proecess
	;;globals hold the file being written to data and the count of lines each file has 
	k ^ufile,^ufile2,^counter,^counter2
	set Reader =##class(%Stream.FileCharacter).%New() 
	
	;;link to the file to read	 
	set status=Reader.LinkToFile(fileName)
		
   if $$$ISERR(status)
	{
		do $System.Status.DisplayError(status)
	}
	;;initialise the counter for the file lines to write to one file	 
	set ^counter =0
	set ^counter2 =0	
	set ^ufile=""
	set ^ufile2=""
    
    ;;the count for the lines read in
	set lineCount=0
	;;start process the lines
	while 'Reader.AtEnd
	{
		;;read the incoming file
		set line=Reader.ReadLine()
		;;increment the line count by one as you read the next line
		set lineCount=lineCount+1		
	
	    ;;piece the column to check
	    ;;one is for the first column and so on
	    ;;string at after the equal sign is the value to check for 
		if ($piece(line,",",1)="Religion")
		{
			;;increment count for this file
			 set ^counter=^counter+1
			  ;;the counter is at one to assign the file path to write to
			   if (^counter=1)
				{
					;;set the file name to write to the global
					set ^ufile=..writeFileOut("fileone",".csv",line,,^counter)
				}
				else
				{
					;;check the count has no reached the limit for the number of lines to write to
					if (^counter=51)
					{
						;;reset the count if limit reach
						set ^counter=1
					    ;;new file
					    set ^ufile =..writeFileOut("fileone",".csv",line,,^counter)
					    }
					    else
					    {
						    ;;use the current file
						    do ..writeFileOut(,,line,,^counter,"REG")
						 }
					}			
		  }
		  ;;second check for the next set of data if you have more than 
		  ;;two to check for copy the below and change accordingly to accommodate the next check
		  ;;same as above
		  if ($piece(line,",",1)="description")
		  {
			  ;;set attributes for the second file to write to
			   set ^counter2=^counter2+1
			   if (^counter2=1)
			   {
					set ^ufile2=..writeFileOut("fileTwo",".csv",line,,^counter2)
				}else
				{
					if (^counter2=51)
					{
						set ^counter2=1
						;;new file
						set ^ufile2= ..writeFileOut("fileTwo",".csv",line,,^counter2)
					}else
					{
						do ..writeFileOut(,,line,,^counter2,"DESC")
					}
				}				 			
	}
		  
}

 kill ^ufile,^ufile2
}
