CSV Editor plugin for Eclipse
Feel free to clone, edit, build and release (just update version and/or name of your fork, so make it clear for users) or ask for push access here. Tell about new fork by adding new issue. I will happily put a link to the new repo.
This repository is a fork of https://code.google.com/p/csvedit/ created by Mathieu Savy in 2104. It contains the latest functionalities available for CSVEdit but most of the new features are still being tested. If you look for a more reliable version of the plugin you should probably visit the original repository.
- The previous stable release 1.1.3 was available on Eclipse Marketplace.
- The version available in this repository is 1.2.x
The intention was to contribute features from here to the original repository once they are mature.

CSVEdit make CSVFile edition easier.
-
Edit from the source editor
The source editor has been enhanced to help you differentiate your data from the different column using a color mechanism
-
Edit from a table view representing the csv data
The table editing is definitely the added value of the plugin and allows a bunch of operation on your csv file among the following features
- Easy editing of data
- Insertion and deletion of table rows
- Insertion and deletion of table column
- Filtering of data
- Customize view with hidding/display of column to simplify the view
- Manage your column with moving/resizing columns
- Sorting data in column
- Manage your own CSV settings
Optional maven/tycho build was added in 2017 by Paul Verest.
In the new CSVEdit version, it is now possible to edit a row in a form.
And even specify columns containing multiple values and their delimiter.
To do so, go in preferences/CSV Editor Preferences:
- in
header regex
put a regex matching a part of all column headers you want to display as a table. For instance, the picture below uses the regex (customer|order_id). - in
delimiter to use as value delimiter
, put the delimiter separating each value in your cell.
