liberal_parsing
¶ ↑Specifies the boolean value that determines whether CSV will attempt to parse input not conformant with RFC 4180, such as double quotes in unquoted fields.
Default value:
CSV::DEFAULT_OPTIONS.fetch(:liberal_parsing) # => false
For examples in this section:
str = 'is,this "three, or four",fields'
Without liberal_parsing
:
# Raises CSV::MalformedCSVError (Illegal quoting in str 1.) CSV.parse_line(str)
With liberal_parsing
:
ary = CSV.parse_line(str, liberal_parsing: true) ary # => ["is", "this \"three", " or four\"", "fields"]
