Usage
=====

[](#usage)

Simple Example
--------------

[](#simple-example)

Let's assume we have a csv file like this.

IDNameAge1Mahmud272Mohor263Ayman1```
use Mahmud\Sheet\SheetReader;

SheetReader::makeFromCsv('/path-to-csv-file/example-file.csv')
            ->delimiter(",")                        // Optional: You can set delimiter for CSV file
            ->ignoreRow(0)                          // Optional: Skip the header row
            ->columns(['id', 'name', 'age'])        // Arbitary column name that will be mapped sequentially for each row
            ->onEachRow(function($row, $index){
                // This callback will be executed for each row
                var_dump($row);     // Current row in associative array
                var_dump($index);   // Current index of the row
            })->read();
```

Middleware
----------

[](#middleware)

You can modify data of each row with middleware. See the following example

```
use Mahmud\Sheet\SheetReader;

SheetReader::makeFromCsv('/path-to-csv-file/example-file.csv')
            ->delimiter(",")
            ->ignoreRow(0)
            ->columns(['id', 'name', 'age'])
            ->applyMiddleware(function($row, $index){
                $row['age'] = $row['age'] . " Years";

                return $row;
            })
            ->onEachRow(function($row, $index){
                var_dump($row);
            })->read();
```

Another example using class as middleware

```
class AgeMiddleware{
    public function handle($row, $index) {
        $row['age'] = $row['age'] . " Years";

        return $row;
    }
}

SheetReader::makeFromCsv('/path-to-csv-file/example-file.csv')
            ->delimiter(",")
            ->ignoreRow(0)
            ->columns(['id', 'name', 'age'])
            ->applyMiddleware(new AgeMiddleware)
            ->onEachRow(function($row, $index){
                var_dump($row);
            })->read();
```

Also you can pass array of middlewares

```
SheetReader::makeFromCsv('/path-to-csv-file/example-file.csv')
            ->delimiter(",")
            ->ignoreRow(0)
            ->columns(['id', 'name', 'age'])
            ->applyMiddleware([
                new AgeMiddleware,
                new AnotherMiddleware,
            ])
            ->onEachRow(function($row, $index){
                var_dump($row);
            })->read();
```

If you return `null` from middleware, That row will be skipped and won't pass to `onEachRow` handler.

```
SheetReader::makeFromCsv('/path-to-csv-file/example-file.csv')
            ->delimiter(",")
            ->ignoreRow(0)
            ->columns(['id', 'name', 'age'])
            ->applyMiddleware(function($row){
                if($row['id'] == 1){
                    return null;
                }

                return $row;
            })
            ->onEachRow(function($row, $index){
                var_dump($row);
            })->read();
```

Count total rows
----------------

[](#count-total-rows)

```
$total = SheetReader::makeFromCsv('/path-to-csv-file/example-file.csv')
                        ->totalRows();

var_dump($total);       // 4
```
