CSV to JSON and XML convertor

Summer 2017: Test project to generate JSON and XML files from a given CSV file. The aim is to dedicate 24hrs to write modularized code, keeping it clean with error handling and logging.

Requirement:

The tool (.jar file) can be tested on a x86-64 machine with the most recent unmodified Debian stable release with JAVA installed. All external libraries are already packaged with the code in the .jar file.

How to execute the tool:

1. Place the dataConvertor.jar file in your directory.
2. Run the command java -jar dataConvertor.jar from that directory on your terminal.
3. Enter your choice from the menu that pops up on therminal: 1- CSV to JSON 2- CSV to XML 3- Both Enter Conversion Choice:
4. Enter the complete path of the .CSV (for example: data/workspace/hotels.csv) when prompted.

Result:

The JSON or/and XML file will be generated with the same name as the CSV file (for example: hotels.json) and stored in the same source directory (for example: data/workspace/) as the csv file. The log file called DataPipeline_logfile.log will be generated in the same directory with the logs of information, warnings and exceptions.

Source Code:

The source code written in JAVA is attached. It can be imported and compiled using any standard IDE like Eclipse.
