Constructor Details

#initialize(data, memo = nil, encoding = nil) {|_self| ... } ⇒ Table

Opens a DBF::Table Examples:

# working with a file stored on the filesystem
table = DBF::Table.new 'data.dbf'

# working with a misnamed memo file
table = DBF::Table.new 'data.dbf', 'memo.dbt'

# working with a dbf in memory
table = DBF::Table.new StringIO.new(dbf_data)

# working with a dbf and memo in memory
table = DBF::Table.new StringIO.new(dbf_data), StringIO.new(memo_data)

# working with a dbf overriding specified in the dbf encoding
table = DBF::Table.new 'data.dbf', nil, 'cp437'
table = DBF::Table.new 'data.dbf', 'memo.dbt', Encoding::US_ASCII

Parameters:

  • data (String, StringIO)

    data Path to the dbf file or a StringIO object

  • memo (optional String, StringIO) (defaults to: nil)

    memo Path to the memo file or a StringIO object

  • encoding (optional String, Encoding) (defaults to: nil)

    encoding Name of the encoding or an Encoding object

Yields:

  • (_self)

Yield Parameters:

  • _self (DBF::Table)

    the object that the method was called on

Column names

Returns:

# File 'lib/dbf/table.rb', line 104

def column_names

Returns:

  • (Array)

# File 'lib/dbf/table.rb', line 111

def columns
  @columns ||= build_columns
end

#each {|nil, DBF::Record| ... } ⇒ Object

Calls block once for each record in the table. The record may be nil if the record has been marked as deleted.

Yields:

121
# File 'lib/dbf/table.rb', line 119

def each
  record_count.times { |i| yield record(i) }
end

def filename
  return unless @data.respond_to?(:path)

  File.basename(@data.path)
end

#find(command, options = {}) {|optional, DBF::Record, NilClass| ... } ⇒ Object

Find records using a simple ActiveRecord-like syntax.

Examples:

table = DBF::Table.new 'mydata.dbf'

# Find record number 5
table.find(5)

# Find all records for Keith Morrison
table.find :all, first_name: "Keith", last_name: "Morrison"

# Find first record
table.find :first, first_name: "Keith"

The command may be a record index, :all, or :first. options is optional and, if specified, should be a hash where the keys correspond to column names in the database. The values will be matched exactly with the value in the database. If you specify more than one key, all values must match in order for the record to be returned. The equivalent SQL would be “WHERE key1 = ‘value1’ AND key2 = ‘value2’”.

Parameters:

  • command (Integer, Symbol)

    command

  • options (optional, Hash) (defaults to: {})

    options Hash of search parameters
