Papa Parse (formerly the jQuery Parse Plugin) is a robust and powerful CSV (character-separated values) parser with these features:
- Easily parses delimited text strings with any delimiter
- Easy to use
- Parse CSV files directly (local or over the network)
- Stream large files (even via HTTP)
- Reverse parsing (converts JSON to CSV)
- Auto-detects the delimiter
- Worker threads to keep your web page responsive
- Header row support
- Can convert numbers and booleans to their types
- Graceful and robust error handling
- jQuery integration to easily parse files from `<input type="file">` elements
- Minor jQuery integration to get files from `<input type="file">` elements
All are optional (except for being easy to use).
