Usage

Sample workflow to import a folder of CSVs and render them as a tagged Adlib file.

const actools = require("@nondef/ac-tools")
const fs = require('fs');

const dataFolder = './datain/';
const import_set = new actools.AdlibRecordSet("importset")

fs.readdirSync(dataFolder).forEach(file => {
    //loads the CSV as a set using the first row for column heading
    import_set.loadSetFromCSV(`${dataFolder}${file}`, null, ";");
});

import_set.set.forEach((rec) => {
  //some record manipulations
})


fs.writeFileSync("./dataout/importset.dat", import_set.jsonToAdlibDat(["IN", "bt"]))
