Calculation Methodology & Formula
Parses tabular text streams per RFC 4180 rules, handling multiline quoted records, escape characters, and field delimiters before serializing into structured JSON.
\text{CSV}(R, C) \xrightarrow{\text{RFC 4180 Parsing}} [\{ \text{Header}_j: \text{Cast}(\text{Cell}_{i,j}) \}]Worked Example: Customer Export Conversion
Convert a 3-column CSV of user records into a JSON array.
csv Data:id,name,active
101,Alice,true
102,Bob,false
delimiter:Auto-detect (,)
auto Type Cast:Enabled
Expected Output[{"id":101,"name":"Alice","active":true},{"id":102,"name":"Bob","active":false}]
Automatically converts numeric and boolean strings into native JSON types.
Technical Constraints & Limitations
- Processing occurs strictly in device RAM; extremely large CSV files (>50 MB) may cause browser memory pressure.
- Malformed CSV strings with unclosed quotation marks will display a syntax error prompt.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are my CSV files uploaded to an external server?
No. All CSV parsing and JSON serialization executes 100% locally in your browser memory. Your confidential business and personal data never leaves your computer.
Does the converter support semicolons and tab delimiters?
Yes. You can select Commas, Semicolons (standard in European Excel exports), Tabs (TSV), or Vertical Pipes (|), or allow the automatic delimiter detector to select the best match.
What does Automatic Type Casting do?
When enabled, numbers like "42.5" become numbers, "true"/"false" become booleans, and empty cells become null. When disabled, all values remain preserved as strings.
