I am trying to select only certain columns from a csv using PHP. Currently I am using:
$theData = array(
array( 'col1', 'col2', 'col3', 'col4', 'col5' ),
array( 'col1', 'col2', 'col3', 'col4', 'col5' ),
array( 'col1', 'col2', 'col3', 'col4', 'col5' )
);
$picked = '1, 3, 5';
$totalColumns = count( $theData[0] );
$columns = explode( ',', $picked );
foreach( $theData as $k => &$thisData ) {
for( $x = 1; $x < $totalColumns + 1; $x++ ) {
if( ! in_array( $x, $columns ) ) {
unset( $thisData[$x - 1] );
}
}
}
Can anyone suggest any better solutions?
$picked = array(1, 3, 5);
$theData = array();
if (($handle = fopen("test.csv", "r")) !== FALSE) {
while (($data = fgetcsv($handle, 1000, ",")) !== FALSE) {
$numCols = count($data);
$row = array();
for($c=0; $c < $numCols; $c++)
if(in_array($c, $picked))
$row[] = $data[$c];
$theData[] = $row;
}
fclose($handle);
}
Edit, per OP request
Here we map column names from the first row into integers used to select those columns, rather than require the numeric identifier for the column. Untested, but I imagine it's close.
$names = array('Heading 1', 'Heading 2', 'Heading 3');
$picked = array();
$theData = array();
$isFirstRow = true;
if (($handle = fopen("test.csv", "r")) !== FALSE) {
while (($data = fgetcsv($handle, 1000, ",")) !== FALSE) {
$numCols = count($data);
$row = array();
// process the first row to select columns for extraction
if($isFirstRow) {
for($c=0; $c<$numCols; $c++)
if(!in_array($data[$c], $names)
continue;
else
$picked[] = $c;
$isFirstRow = false;
}
// process remaining rows
else {
for($c=0; $c < $numCols; $c++)
if(in_array($c, $picked))
$row[] = $data[$c];
$theData[] = $row;
}
}
fclose($handle);
}
