Determine how many bytes a CSV row is in Golang

Question content

I have a test.csv and I will read it line by line and determine how many are in each line byte.

This should be lower than 37 bytes because I'm on Windows and the first two lines have \r\n adding a total of 4 bytes.

foo,bar,baz
100,200,300
400,500,600

I want to use csv.NewReader() to simply determine how many bytes are in each row. However, I know that when doing byte counting in the code below, csv.Reader does not count commas and \n in each row.

Should I add some math for the number of commas in each line and add 2 bytes for the last line as \r\n -1 since it doesn't have \r\n? This feels a bit hackneyed, so I'd rather see if there's a better solution to my byte count problem.

My code:

package main

import (
    "encoding/csv"
    "fmt"
    "io"
    "log"
    "os"
)

func main() {
    file, err := os.Open("test.csv")
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatal(err)
    }
    defer file.Close()

    fileInfo, err := file.Stat()
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatal(err)
    }
    fmt.Printf("file total bytes is %d\n", fileInfo.Size())

    // init reader
    reader := csv.NewReader(file)

    // extract the header
    headers, err := reader.Read()
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatal(err)
    }
    fmt.Printf("headers are: %+v\n", headers)

    byteCounter := 0
    for {
        // if we reached end of file, stop
        if err == io.EOF {
            break
        }

        // read a record
        record, err := reader.Read()
        if err != nil {
            log.Fatal(err)
        }
        // loop through each record and count how many bytes
        for _, item := range record {
            byteCounter += len(item)
            fmt.Printf("record is %d bytes\n", len(item))
        }
        fmt.Println("total bytes so far is: ", byteCounter)

    }
}

Correct answer

Use Reader.InputOffset to get the current position in the file: < /p> BD44F3686574B2610B9F6F11A1F9CFEF

To get the number of bytes per row, subtract the previous offset.

prevOffset := reader.InputOffset()

for {
    ...
    // read a record
    _, err := reader.Read()
    ...
    fmt.Println("line length is: ", reader.InputOffset()-prevOffset)
    prevOffset = reader.InputOffset()

}
