About:
qsv is a high-performance CSV toolkit designed for data wrangling, offering a suite of subcommands for slicing, indexing, searching, and analyzing CSV files. It is a Rust-powered fork of xsv, providing significant speed improvements and additional features like automatic indexing and statistics. This tool is ideal for developers and data analysts working with large datasets who need command-line efficiency.
Key Features:
  • Blazing fast performance via Rust implementation
  • Comprehensive subcommands (stats, select, search, join, etc.)
  • Automatic CSV indexing for rapid random access
  • Low memory footprint for processing large files
Use Cases:
  • Quickly inspecting and summarizing large log or data files
  • Performing complex joins and filters on CSV datasets
  • Automating data cleaning and transformation pipelines
Alternatives:
  • csvkit – Python-based and very feature-rich, but generally slower than qsv on large datasets.
  • xsv – The original Rust tool from which qsv is forked; qsv includes more commands and performance optimizations.
