🌈Rainbow CSV - Sublime Text Package: Highlight columns in CSV and TSV files and run queeries in SQL-like language

Rainbow CSV

Main features

• Highlight columns in *.csv, *.tsv and other separated files in different rainbow colors.
• Provide info about columns on mouse hover.
• Check consistency of CSV files (CSVLint)
• Align columns with spaces and Shrink (trim spaces from fields)
• Execute SQL-like RBQL queries.

Usage

Rainbow CSV has content-based csv/tsv autodetection mechanism. This means that the package will analyze plain text files even if they do not have ".csv" or ".tsv" extension.

Rainbow highlighting can also be manually enabled from Sublime context menu (see the demo gif below):

1. Select a character (or sequence of characters) that you want to use as a delimiter with the cursor
2. Right mouse click: context menu -> Rainbow CSV -> Enable ...

You can also disable rainbow highlighting and go back to the original file highlighting using the same context menu.
This feature can be used to temporarily rainbow-highlight even non-table files.

Manual Rainbow Enabling/Disabling demo gif:

Rainbow CSV also lets you execute SQL-like queries in RBQL language, see the demo gif below:

To Run RBQL query press F5 or select "Rainbow CSV" -> "Run RBQL query" option from the file context menu.

Key mappings

Key	Action
F5	Start query editing for the current CSV file

Commands

Rainbow CSV: Enable Simple

Before running the command you need to select the separator (single or multiple characters) with your cursor Set the selected character as the separator and enables syntax highlighting. Sublime will generate the syntax file if it doesn't exist. Simple dialect completely ignores double quotes: i.e. separators can not be escaped in double quoted fields

Rainbow CSV: Enable Standard

Same as the Enable Simple command, but separators can be escaped in double quoted fields.

Rainbow CSV: CSVLint

The linter checks the following:

• consistency of double quotes usage in CSV rows
• consistency of number of fields per CSV row

Rainbow CSV: Run RBQL query

Run RBQL query for the current file.
Unlike F5 button it will work even if the current file is not a CSV table: in this case only 2 variables "a1" and "NR" will be available.

Rainbow CSV: Align CSV columns with spaces

Align CSV columns with spaces in the current file

Rainbow CSV: Shrink CSV table

Remove leading and trailing spaces from all fields in the current file

Configuration

To adjust plugin configuration:

1. Go to "Preferences" -> "Package Settings" -> "Rainbow CSV" -> "Settings".
2. On the right side change the settings like you'd like.

Configuration parameters

To configure the extension, click "Preferences" -> "Package Settings" -> "Rainbow CSV" -> "Settings"

"allow_newlines_in_fields"

Allow quoted multiline fields as defined in RFC-4180

"enable_rainbow_csv_autodetect"

Enable content-based separator autodetection. Files with ".csv" and ".tsv" extensions are always highlighted no matter what is the value of this option.

"rainbow_csv_autodetect_dialects"

List of CSV dialects to autodetect.
If "enable_rainbow_csv_autodetect" is set to false this setting is ignored

"rainbow_csv_max_file_size_bytes"

Disable Rainbow CSV for files bigger than the specified size. This can be helpful to prevent poor performance and crashes with very large files.
Manual separator selection will override this setting for the current file.
E.g. to disable on files larger than 100 MB, set "rainbow_csv_max_file_size_bytes": 100000000

"use_custom_rainbow_colors"

Use custom high-contrast rainbow colors instead of colors provided by your current color scheme. When you enable this option, "auto_adjust_rainbow_colors" also gets enabled by default.

"auto_adjust_rainbow_colors"

Auto adjust rainbow colors for Packages/User/RainbowCSV.sublime-color-scheme
Rainbow CSV will auto-generate color theme with high-contrast colors to make CSV columns more distinguishable.
You can disable this setting and manually customize Rainbow CSV color scheme at Packages/User/RainbowCSV.sublime-color-scheme, you can use the following RainbowCSV.sublime-color-scheme file as a starting point for your customizations. Do NOT manually customize Packages/User/RainbowCSV.sublime-color-scheme without disabling this setting, the plugin will just rewrite it in that case. This option has effect only if "use_custom_rainbow_colors" is set to true

"rbql_backend_language"

RBQL backend language.
Supported values: "Python", "JS"
To use RBQL with JavaScript (JS) you need to have Node JS installed and added to your system path.

"rbql_with_headers"

Default: false RBQL will treat first records in all input and join files as headers.
You can set this value to true if most of the CSV files you deal with have headers.
You can override this setting on the query level by either adding WITH (header) or WITH (noheader) to the end of the query.

"rbql_output_format"

Format of RBQL result set tables.
Supported values: "tsv", "csv", "input"

• input: same format as the input table
• tsv: tab separated values.
• csv: is Excel-compatible and allows quoted commas.

Example: to always use "tsv" as output format add this line to your settings file: "rbql_output_format": "tsv",

"rbql_encoding"

RBQL encoding for files and queries.
Supported values: "latin-1", "utf-8"

RBQL (Rainbow Query Language) Description

RBQL is an eval-based SQL-like query engine for (not only) CSV file processing. It provides SQL-like language that supports SELECT queries with Python or JavaScript expressions.
RBQL is best suited for data transformation, data cleaning, and analytical queries.
RBQL is distributed with CLI apps, text editor plugins, Python and JS libraries.

Official Site

Main Features

• Use Python or JavaScript expressions inside SELECT, UPDATE, WHERE and ORDER BY statements
• Supports multiple input formats
• Result set of any query immediately becomes a first-class table on its own
• No need to provide FROM statement in the query when the input table is defined by the current context.
• Supports all main SQL keywords
• Supports aggregate functions and GROUP BY queries
• Supports user-defined functions (UDF)
• Provides some new useful query modes which traditional SQL engines do not have
• Lightweight, dependency-free, works out of the box

Limitations:

• RBQL doesn't support nested queries, but they can be emulated with consecutive queries
• Number of tables in all JOIN queries is always 2 (input table and join table), use consecutive queries to join 3 or more tables

Supported SQL Keywords (Keywords are case insensitive)

• SELECT
• UPDATE
• WHERE
• ORDER BY ... [ DESC | ASC ]
• [ LEFT | INNER ] JOIN
• DISTINCT
• GROUP BY
• TOP N
• LIMIT N
• AS

All keywords have the same meaning as in SQL queries. You can check them online

RBQL variables

RBQL for CSV files provides the following variables which you can use in your queries:

• a1, a2,..., a{N}
  Variable type: string
  Description: value of i-th field in the current record in input table
• b1, b2,..., b{N}
  Variable type: string
  Description: value of i-th field in the current record in join table B
• NR
  Variable type: integer
  Description: Record number (1-based)
• NF
  Variable type: integer
  Description: Number of fields in the current record
• a.name, b.Person_age, ... a.{Good_alphanumeric_column_name}
  Variable type: string
  Description: Value of the field referenced by it's "name". You can use this notation if the field in the header has a "good" alphanumeric name
• a["object id"], a['9.12341234'], b["%$ !! 10 20"] ... a["Arbitrary column name!"]
  Variable type: string
  Description: Value of the field referenced by it's "name". You can use this notation to reference fields by arbitrary values in the header

UPDATE statement

UPDATE query produces a new table where original values are replaced according to the UPDATE expression, so it can also be considered a special type of SELECT query.

Aggregate functions and queries

RBQL supports the following aggregate functions, which can also be used with GROUP BY keyword:
COUNT, ARRAY_AGG, MIN, MAX, SUM, AVG, VARIANCE, MEDIAN

Limitation: aggregate functions inside Python (or JS) expressions are not supported. Although you can use expressions inside aggregate functions.
E.g. MAX(float(a1) / 1000) - valid; MAX(a1) / 1000 - invalid.
There is a workaround for the limitation above for ARRAY_AGG function which supports an optional parameter - a callback function that can do something with the aggregated array. Example:
SELECT a2, ARRAY_AGG(a1, lambda v: sorted(v)[:5]) GROUP BY a2 - Python; SELECT a2, ARRAY_AGG(a1, v => v.sort().slice(0, 5)) GROUP BY a2 - JS

JOIN statements

Join table B can be referenced either by its file path or by its name - an arbitrary string which the user should provide before executing the JOIN query.
RBQL supports STRICT LEFT JOIN which is like LEFT JOIN, but generates an error if any key in the left table "A" doesn't have exactly one matching key in the right table "B".
Table B path can be either relative to the working dir, relative to the main table or absolute.
Limitation: JOIN statements can't contain Python/JS expressions and must have the following form: <JOIN_KEYWORD> (/path/to/table.tsv | table_name ) ON a... == b... [AND a... == b... [AND ... ]]

SELECT EXCEPT statement

SELECT EXCEPT can be used to select everything except specific columns. E.g. to select everything but columns 2 and 4, run: SELECT * EXCEPT a2, a4
Traditional SQL engines do not support this query mode.

UNNEST() operator

UNNEST(list) takes a list/array as an argument and repeats the output record multiple times - one time for each value from the list argument.
Example: SELECT a1, UNNEST(a2.split(';'))

LIKE() function

RBQL does not support LIKE operator, instead it provides "like()" function which can be used like this: SELECT * where like(a1, 'foo%bar')

WITH (header) and WITH (noheader) statements

You can set whether the input (and join) CSV file has a header or not using the environment configuration parameters which could be --with_headers CLI flag or GUI checkbox or something else. But it is also possible to override this selection directly in the query by adding either WITH (header) or WITH (noheader) statement at the end of the query. Example: select top 5 NR, * with (header)

User Defined Functions (UDF)

RBQL supports User Defined Functions
You can define custom functions and/or import libraries in two special files:

• ~/.rbql_init_source.py - for Python
• ~/.rbql_init_source.js - for JavaScript

Examples of RBQL queries

With Python expressions

• SELECT TOP 100 a1, int(a2) * 10, len(a4) WHERE a1 == "Buy" ORDER BY int(a2) DESC
• SELECT a.id, a.weight / 1000 AS weight_kg
• SELECT * ORDER BY random.random() - random sort
• SELECT len(a.vehicle_price) / 10, a2 WHERE int(a.vehicle_price) < 500 and a['Vehicle type'] in ["car", "plane", "boat"] limit 20 - referencing columns by names from header and using Python's "in" to emulate SQL's "in"
• UPDATE SET a3 = 'NPC' WHERE a3.find('Non-playable character') != -1
• SELECT NR, * - enumerate records, NR is 1-based
• SELECT * WHERE re.match(".*ab.*", a1) is not None - select entries where first column has "ab" pattern
• SELECT a1, b1, b2 INNER JOIN ./countries.txt ON a2 == b1 ORDER BY a1, a3 - example of join query
• SELECT MAX(a1), MIN(a1) WHERE a.Name != 'John' GROUP BY a2, a3 - example of aggregate query
• SELECT *a1.split(':') - Using Python3 unpack operator to split one column into many. Do not try this with other SQL engines!

With JavaScript expressions

• SELECT TOP 100 a1, a2 * 10, a4.length WHERE a1 == "Buy" ORDER BY parseInt(a2) DESC
• SELECT a.id, a.weight / 1000 AS weight_kg
• SELECT * ORDER BY Math.random() - random sort
• SELECT TOP 20 a.vehicle_price.length / 10, a2 WHERE parseInt(a.vehicle_price) < 500 && ["car", "plane", "boat"].indexOf(a['Vehicle type']) > -1 limit 20 - referencing columns by names from header
• UPDATE SET a3 = 'NPC' WHERE a3.indexOf('Non-playable character') != -1
• SELECT NR, * - enumerate records, NR is 1-based
• SELECT a1, b1, b2 INNER JOIN ./countries.txt ON a2 == b1 ORDER BY a1, a3 - example of join query
• SELECT MAX(a1), MIN(a1) WHERE a.Name != 'John' GROUP BY a2, a3 - example of aggregate query
• SELECT ...a1.split(':') - Using JS "destructuring assignment" syntax to split one column into many. Do not try this with other SQL engines!

sublime_rainbow_csv's Issues

Align columns with spaces adds trailing spaces

The alignment works nicely from the very limited testing I've done, but the final column is also processed for equal width with trailing spaces. This means that if one line is long enough for the final element to trigger a word wrap, every line becomes long enough to trigger a word wrap, which is both annoying and confusing as there doesn't seem to be any reason for it unless the user has whitespace shown

Issue with importing uuid class?

Hello,
I've had a monthly batch process that I've been using for about a year based on this sublime plugin which has been working great. It uses some UDFs defined in the .rbql_init_source.py file that require the uuid functions. So i've had 'import uuid' at the top of the init file working great for ages. A few weeks ago I started trying to run the process (skipped Feb this year, so I think my last successful run was with 1.5.0) and now it acts like the import uuid statement no longer works, as I get 'undefined global uuid' error when running my function within the query.
At first, I assumed it was something wonky with the sublime embedded python and started rolling back versions of ST3 to no avail. Even confirmed / recompiled the 3.3.6 pyo for the uuid class, etc.
After no luck there, I tried running the same process using VSCode and its corresponding rbql plugin, with the same result. So, I'm guessing some sort of weird conflict has come up with uuid, since I can import sys and use functions there with no problem.

I confirmed I can exec the functions from the python cli on the system level.

Steps for simple repro:

Install any recent version of ST3 and install Rainbow_CSV from package control
.rbql_init_source.py:

import uuid
import sys

def bob():
	return sys.version

def joe():
	return uuid.uuid4()

Open up a csv file in ST3 and run the following:
update set a1 = joe()

query execution, Error at line 1, details: global name 'uuid' is not defined

Now try this:
update set a1 = bob()
File executes and replaces with the expected embedded python version string

I'm going to downgrade to 1.5.0 and see if comes back, but figured I'd post here too in case anyone has run into this and has a quick solution I'm missing.

[updated] - downgraded the st3 package to 1.5.0 by replacing the folder under packages and now it works again.

Thanks!

Improve support for East Asian languages ​​when using the ‘align’ function

East Asian languages ​​(such as Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) usually take up the size of two English characters. If you don’t deal with it specially, when you use the ‘align’ function, you may not be able to align it. The look and feel is bad. It is recommended to optimize it.

Make generated syntaxes a sub-flavor of `text.csv`

sublime_rainbow_csv/auto_syntax.py

Line 33 in 2da337d

scope: text.{}

sublime_rainbow_csv/auto_syntax.py

Line 47 in 2da337d

scope: text.{}

Can these lines add a csv. so that the format of the root scope property in the generated .sublime-syntax is text.csv.XXXX? Then text.csv will match all variants, and specific variants can still be targeted with text.csv.XXXX.

I believe this would allow the package I use for sidebar icons to recognize the variants as text.csv and apply the correct icon to them.

referencing by column name not working..?

Hi,

I don't seem to be able to use the a.col_name notation when making queries. The typical a1 (i.e. a + int) notation works.

I created this test file:

col1,col2,col3,vehicle_price,Vehicle type
test1,test2,test3,20,car
test1,test2,test3,200,plane
test1,test2,test3,2000,boat

and tried running select a.col1 but got this error:

Details:
query execution
At record 1, Details: 'RBQLRecord' object has no attribute 'col1'

I also tried running the select len(a.vehicle_price) / 10, a2 where int(a.vehicle_price) < 500 and a['Vehicle type'] in ["car", "plane", "boat"] limit 20 query from the README (here) and got a similar error (... RBQLRecord has no attribute ...)

I'm running the latest 2.8.0 release of the package.

Thank you!

Support multiline fields with arbitrary separators

Currently, multiline fields are only supported with commas and semicolons, see #20 for context.

A way to save query

Hello,

It could be great to habe a way to save some requests like

SELECT a1, a2 ORDER BY parseInt(a2), parseInt(a1.split(".").join(""))

:)

Option to start columns at 0

We have other software at our company that reads CSVs as 0,1,2,3 rather than 1,2,3,4

I love the extension, however, I haven't seen an option to start at 0 rather than 1. Is this possible now? If not can it be added as an option?

I can't tell you how many times I've messed up something just forgetting mentally to -1 from the pop-up.

Thanks for any consideration. :-)

| 'pipe' separator auto-detection not working

Hello,
first of all, thank you for this FANTASTIC Sublime package, it saves me a great deal of time analysing csv files.
It worked seamless opening files with 'comma' delimiter. When we changed to 'pipe' separator it did not auto-detect it.

I have upgraded Sublime and the package to latest version.
Sublime Text v3.2
sublime_rainbow_csv v1.1.1

I have tried to change user settings with no success. "enable_rainbow_csv_autodetect": true/false. If I manually set separator in menu "Enable standard" or "Enable simple". It highlights the repeated re-open of file. But for every new csv file I have to set it manually again, and I deal with a lot of files.

Could this be somehow defined in settings, or simply changed in application code? If not, could it be fixed?

Issue example

Custom delimeters

Hey there!

I would like to improve the project adding a custom delimeter setting to the project. What do you think about the idea?

Add slice support to the python backend

It would be nice to make query like:

SELECT a[2:4], a[6:8]

UPD if it possible to make query lile:

SELECT a['id':'name']

it will be great!

Plugin still shows popups after switched to plain text

I open a file and plugin automatically detects it as CSV (Rainbow). Then I switch mode to Plain text.
But it still shows popups:

rainbow csv crash on large files

I have constantly used rainbow CSV.
Some of files I am working with are over 100 MB. Rainbow CSV just make sublime crash.
Is there a way to change the config file of Rainbow CSV, such that it will skip to interpret CSV files if it is over a size limit?

Long data problem

If data string is long plugin does not work good – no syntax highlight

The settings file "res://Packages/rainbow_csv/RainbowCSV.sublime-settings" could not be opened

I followed the Package Control implementation, and restarted Sublime, but I continue to receive the following error:

The settings file "res://Packages/rainbow_csv/RainbowCSV.sublime-settings" could not be opened

What should I check?

Spell-check and quote logic.

(These effects were discovered using tab delimited notes, a useful but probably unintended use-case. The problems however persist to comma separated content.)

• The second column does not receive spell-check, other columns do.
  • spell-chicked,not spell-chicked,spell-chicked
• Text before or after quoted contents has strange results
  • These are invalid, but I think they should be treated as the same column.
  • "a,b"c
  • d"a,b"

RBQL: Support monocolumn policy

Hello @mechatroner

Thank you for this great plugin, I would like to know if there is a possibility to include the header in the new temp tab with sub CSV data, result of the RQBL?

When it only contains few columns, it is still OK, but it's not always easy to read with a lot of rows/columns, without the header... ='(

Thank you in adavance for your reply

Cheers,

I have tried to append 2 RBQL but it does not us allow to do that

SELECT TOP 1 * UNION SELECT * WHERE re.match('GP001189', a2)

The first part will grab the header etc...

PSV support

Can you add support for PSV (pipe-separated) too? Or is it possible to have setting where we can list custom extensions to apply rainbow color scheme?
Currently I have PSV and I want to automatic apply rainbow mode on file open.

Incorrect color scheme global setting names

The globals color scheme key names should be snake_case, not camelCase. i.e. lineHighlight should be line_highlight here: https://github.com/mechatroner/sublime_rainbow_csv/blob/master/RainbowCSV.sublime-color-scheme#L8-L19

Suggestion: "Run RBQL query" should be available through the Command Palette

It would be great if "Run RBQL query" could be also selected from the Command Palette, instead of the file context menu only.

I believe that this requires a Default.sublime-commands file to be part of the package.

Thank you!

Does this plugin support multiline column?

Does this plugin support multiline within a column?

I have a csv looks like this, which col_B contains multiline content enclosed by quote:

col_A, col_B, col_C
apple,"normal text", 12.5
banana, "This is
multi-line
content", 14
watermelon,text,20

When parsed by this plugin, it shows me "This line has quoting error"

CSV auto-detection does not work when "A File Icon" package is enabled

Hello,

I have CSV file like this

aaaa,bbbb,cccc
super,1234,mega
pokemon,456,awesome

But when I open the CSV in sublime text, there is not an auto highlight, which value should I put inside rainbow_csv_autodetect_dialects to have it highlighted?

missing package settings

The settings for the package do not appear inside Preferences -> Package Settings. I need to change the "rainbow_csv_max_file_size_bytes" setting and can't find where to. My Sublime Text is 3.1.1, Build 3176 and I'm using a portable version. Do you know what might be the issue?

use_custom_rainbow_colors has no effect

Trying to change the colors manually inside RainbowCSV.sublime-color-scheme after setting use_custom_rainbow_colors to true but it does not seem to have any effect, am i missing something?

Keybinding

Sublime maps F5 to sort. But so does this plugin, and somehow now both are happening.

.../Sublime Text 3/Packages/Default/Default (OSX).sublime-keymap

	{ "keys": ["f5"], "command": "sort_lines", "args": {"case_sensitive": false} },
	{ "keys": ["ctrl+f5"], "command": "sort_lines", "args": {"case_sensitive": true} },

Can you pick a different key?

Not able to activate the plugin

Not able to enable the plugin. the menu is disabled. Do I need node or some other additional stuff installed to make it work?

Custom colors

As per #38, customly defined colors cause no change.

The order of colors and a bug with a comma

It seems to me that the order of colors is somewhat random. I don't know is it a bug or by intent, but I would prefer a more predictable order. For example: red, green, blue, violet, red, green, blue, violet, red, green, blue, violet, and so on.

Also, it seems there is a bug with a comma: notice that a comma before 8, 11, 18, and 21 should be white.

Tested with Mariana default color scheme.

RBQL not working

Rainbow coloring of csv/tsv files works fine. However, I get this error message during loading and none of the right-click accessible items, including RBQL queries, from 'Rainbow CSV' are available:

I tried to uninstall/reinstall but didn't help. Any suggestions how to fix this issue is really appreciated. Thanks.

Add csv and tsv content-based autodetection

Some csv and tsv files do not have *.csv or *.tsv extensions, but we still want to highlight them. In order to do this we need to run a table auto-detection function when a new file is being opened (unless some syntax was already assigned to it). The same logic is used in Vim version of the plugin.

Plugin breaks when line is > 16383 characters long

I am working with large JSON dumps and noticed that plugin doesn't work when a line has greater than 16383 characters. The whole line just shows up as a the default text color (white in my case). If I truncate the line, the coloring works again as it should.

This behavior is line-by-line, so it ends up making a striped effect because of lines that are too long being white and lines that are less than the threshold having the correct coloring scheme.

Cannot run query on temporary buffer (i.e. unsaved file)

Hi,

Thank you for the wonderful extension, I use it very frequently and adore it!

I was wondering if the extension is supposed to work on unsaved files?

I sometimes copy and paste bits of CSV into a new Sublime window, and manually set the syntax to "CSV (Rainbow)". The auto coloring works, but I cannot execute queries. Every time I do, I get the following error:

"RBQL Error. Unable to run query for this buffer"

After saving the file to a temporary location, I'm able to execute queries. Is there a way that queries could be run on unsaved files?

Thank you very much!

Package disappeared after update

Hello,

A few days ago rainbow_csv stopped working on Sublime. The package appears in the package list, but it's no longer visible in the View > Syntax list and csv files are not colored. I imagine the package was updated just before it stopped working since the last version came out in the weekend. I tried removing it and reinstalling it but no luck. Any clues on what might have happened?

I have the following versions:
Rainbow CSV v. 2.0.0
Sublime version: 3.2.2, Build 3211
Mac Catalina v.10.15.5

Thanks!
