Create .csv File In Android Application

How can create .csv file in android application, in which we will store some data like some employe details?

Solution 1:

download library from here

and jar file add to your application.

Inside your application do

CSVWriterwriter=null;
try 
{
    writer = newCSVWriter(newFileWriter("/sdcard/myfile.csv"), ',');
    String[] entries = "first#second#third".split("#"); // array of your values
    writer.writeNext(entries);  
    writer.close();
} 
catch (IOException e)
{
    //error
}

Solution 2:

You can write your own implementation for example using String.format or MessageFormat, you can use a template engine like StringTemplate or you can use tools like Bindy.

Example using bindy:

@CsvRecord(isOrdered = true)public Class Order {

   @DataField(pos = 1, position = 11)privateint orderNr;

   @DataField(pos = 2, position = 10)private String clientNr;

...
}

I'm not sure you can use bindy without camel-core, if not then it's probably a dependency you don't want in an Android app ;)

There are loads of other options as well.
