Exporting CSV
Supported by ✅ Open Source Edition ✅ Express Edition ✅ Professional Edition ✅ Enterprise Edition
// Fetch books and format them as CSV String csv = create.selectFrom(BOOK).fetch().formatCSV();
The above query will result in a CSV document looking like the following one:
ID,AUTHOR_ID,TITLE 1,1,1984 2,1,Animal Farm
In addition to the standard behaviour, you can also specify a separator character, as well as a special string to represent NULL values (which cannot be represented in standard CSV):
// Use ";" as the separator character String csv = create.selectFrom(BOOK).fetch().formatCSV(';'); // Specify "{null}" as a representation for NULL values String csv = create.selectFrom(BOOK).fetch().formatCSV(';', "{null}");
