unconverted_fields
¶ ↑Specifies the boolean that determines whether unconverted field values are to be available.
Default value:
CSV::DEFAULT_OPTIONS.fetch(:unconverted_fields) # => nil
The unconverted field values are those found in the source data, prior to any conversions performed via option converters
.
When option unconverted_fields
is true
, each returned row (Array or CSV::Row) has an added method, unconverted_fields
, that returns the unconverted field values:
str = <<-EOT foo,0 bar,1 baz,2 EOT # Without unconverted_fields csv = CSV.parse(str, converters: :integer) csv # => [["foo", 0], ["bar", 1], ["baz", 2]] csv.first.respond_to?(:unconverted_fields) # => false # With unconverted_fields csv = CSV.parse(str, converters: :integer, unconverted_fields: true) csv # => [["foo", 0], ["bar", 1], ["baz", 2]] csv.first.respond_to?(:unconverted_fields) # => true csv.first.unconverted_fields # => ["foo", "0"]
