Streamline CSV File Management in Node.js

Handling CSV files typically necessitates combining several datasets into one cohesive file. Performing this task manually or creating custom scripts can be labor-intensive and susceptible to mistakes. This is where the GroupDocs.Merger Cloud Node.js SDK becomes an essential resource for developers. It streamlines the merging of CSV files with just a handful of API calls via a powerful Cloud API.

Developers can easily incorporate the Node.js REST API to automate the integration of CSV files. The guide outlines how to upload files, set up the merge function, and produce a single organized output. With straightforward and clear code examples, developers can effortlessly modify the solution to suit their own needs.

This feature is particularly advantageous for developers engaged in reporting systems, analytics platforms, or applications driven by data. By delegating the merging task to the GroupDocs Cloud Node.js SDK, you can conserve time, lower complexity, and improve the scalability of your projects. The article offers the practical steps required to start immediately and enhance productivity in your Node.js applications.

Working code example:

// Step 1: Import the GroupDocs.Merger Cloud module
const file_merger = require("groupdocs-merger-cloud");

// Step 2: Define your API credentials
const MyAppKey = "your-app-key";
const MyAppSid = "your-app-sid";

// Step 3: Initialize the DocumentApi with API credentials
const mergerApi = file_merger.DocumentApi.fromKeys(MyAppKey, MyAppSid);

// Step 4: Merge two CSV Files
(async () => {
    try {

        // Configure the CSV files to merge from cloud storage
        const file1 = new file_merger.JoinItem();
        file1.fileInfo = new file_merger.FileInfo();
        file1.fileInfo.filePath = "SampleFiles/source1.csv";

        const file2 = new file_merger.JoinItem();
        file2.fileInfo = new file_merger.FileInfo();
        file2.fileInfo.filePath = "SampleFiles/source2.csv";

        // Set up CSV merging options
        const options = new file_merger.JoinOptions();
        options.joinItems = [file1, file2];
        options.outputPath = "merger/merged.csv";

        // Create a CSV file joining request
        const request = new file_merger.JoinRequest(options);

        // Execute the CSV file merger
        const response = await mergerApi.join(request);

    } catch (error) {
        console.error("Error during document merger:", error.message);
    }
})();
