Papa Parse (formerly the jQuery Parse Plugin) is a robust and powerful CSV (character-separated values) parser with these features:
- Parses delimited text strings without any fuss
- Attach to
<input type="file">
elements to load and parse files from disk - Automatically detects delimiter (or specify a delimiter yourself)
- Supports streaming large inputs
- Utilize the header row, if present
- Gracefully handles malformed data
- Optional dynamic typing so that numeric data is parsed as numbers
- Descriptive and contextual errors

If you'd like to see a feature or bug fix, pull down the code and submit a pull request. But remember, if you're changing anything in the Parser function, a pull request, with test, is best. (All changes to the parser component should be validated with tests.) You may also open issues for discussion or join in on Twitter with #PapaParse
