Hello

In this blog I will give a demo about how to read CSV data from a file. For this purpose I will use Opencsv library. Opencsv  is a very simple csv (comma-separated values) parser library for Java.

You can download  the binary and source jar file from here https://sourceforge.net/projects/opencsv/

Here is a demo program to read the data of a csv file named as myCsv.csv

Content of ReadCSV

import java.io.FileReader;
import java.io.IOException;

import com.opencsv.CSVReader;

public class ReadCSV {
	public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
	
		CSVReader reader = new CSVReader(new FileReader("myCsv.csv"));
		String[] nextLine;
		while ((nextLine = reader.readNext()) != null) {
			// nextLine[] is an array of values from the line
			System.out.println(nextLine[0] + nextLine[1] + nextLine[2] + nextLine[3]);
		}
		reader.close();
	}
}

The content of my csv file is shown below

Run the ReadCsv program to read the content of CSV file. After running the above program the output will be like this.
