The math/visidata port

visidata-3.1.1 – console-based multitool to explore and arrange tabular data (cvsweb github mirror)

Description

VisiData is an interactive multitool for tabular data. It combines the
clarity of a spreadsheet, the efficiency of the terminal, and the power
of Python, into a lightweight utility which can handle millions of rows
with ease.

It's very flexible - see https://www.visidata.org/blog/2020/ten/ for
examples of what it can do, https://jsvine.github.io/intro-to-visidata/
for a tutorial, and the vd(1) manual for a good reference guide.

All of the obvious data formats are supported, as are more specialist
types including pcap, HTML tables, SQL databases, geographic data and
more - see https://www.visidata.org/formats/. This package does not
force optional dependencies for all of these - check the list or try
opening the file and see the "module not found" message - pkglocate
is useful to find the relevant py3-module to install.

Optional dependencies
=====================

Visidata supports many file formats via additional dependencies - these
are not enforced by the port, you can install them with pkg_add(1).
See https://www.visidata.org/formats/ and vd(1) for a list.

At the time of writing, these are supported internally:

  tsv (tab-separated value) 
  csv (comma-separated value) 
  fixed (fixed width text) 
  json (single object) and jsonl/ndjson/ldjson (one object per line). 
  sqlite 
  supported files compressed with zip, gz, bz2, xz

These are supported with additional packages (install with pkg_add):

  hdf5			py3-h5py
  html/htm, xml		py3-lxml
  mysql/mariadb		py3-mysqlclient
  pcap			py3-dpkt py3-dnslib
  pdf			py3-pdfminer
  postgresql		py3-psycopg2
  xls			py3-xlrd
  xlsx			py3-openpyxl
  yaml/yml		py3-yaml
  (various via pandas)	py3-pandas

http is also supported as a transport for other file formats; install
py3-requests.

Some of the other supported formats will need additional libraries.
If you try opening a file and see a "module not found" message on the
status line, pkg_locate(1) in the "pkglocatedb" package can help you
determine if it's available in packages, otherwise it may need to
be ported.
