====== Option +skip_lines+
Specifies an object to use in identifying comment lines in the input that are to be ignored:
* If a \Regexp, ignores lines that match it.
* If a \String, converts it to a \Regexp, ignores lines that match it.
* If +nil+, no lines are considered to be comments.
Default value:
CSV::DEFAULT_OPTIONS.fetch(:skip_lines) # => nil
For examples in this section:
str = <<-EOT
# Comment
foo,0
bar,1
baz,2
# Another comment
EOT
str # => "# Comment\nfoo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n# Another comment\n"
Using the default, +nil+:
ary = CSV.parse(str)
ary # => [["# Comment"], ["foo", "0"], ["bar", "1"], ["baz", "2"], ["# Another comment"]]
Using a \Regexp:
ary = CSV.parse(str, skip_lines: /^#/)
ary # => [["foo", "0"], ["bar", "1"], ["baz", "2"]]
Using a \String:
ary = CSV.parse(str, skip_lines: '#')
ary # => [["foo", "0"], ["bar", "1"], ["baz", "2"]]
---
Raises an exception if given an object that is not a \Regexp, a \String, or +nil+:
# Raises ArgumentError (:skip_lines has to respond to #match: 0)
CSV.parse(str, skip_lines: 0)
