来自字符串或包数据的pandas.read_csv

我在程序包中有一些csv文本数据,我想用read_csv读取。

我这样做了
from pkgutil import get_data
from StringIO import StringIO

data = read_csv(StringIO(get_data('package.subpackage', 'path/to/data.csv')))

但是,StringIO.StringIO在Python 3中消失,而io.StringIO只接受Unicode。有一种简单的方法可以做到这一点吗?

修改:以下似乎无法正常工作

import pandas as pd

import pkgutil
from io import StringIO

def get_data_file(pkg, path):
    f = StringIO()
    contents = unicode(pkgutil.get_data('pymc.examples', 'data/wells.dat'))
    f.write(contents)
    return f

wells = get_data_file('pymc.examples', 'data/wells.dat')

data = pd.read_csv(wells, delimiter=' ', index_col='id',
                   dtype={'switch': np.int8})

失败

以下在3.3中为我工作:

>>> import numpy as np, pandas as pd
>>> import io, pkgutil
>>> wells = pkgutil.get_data('pymc.examples', 'data/wells.dat')
>>> type(wells)
<class 'bytes'>
>>> df = pd.read_csv(io.BytesIO(wells), encoding='utf8', sep=" ", index_col="id", dtype={"switch": np.int8})
>>> df.head()
    switch  arsenic       dist  assoc  educ
id                                         
1        1     2.36  16.826000      0     0
2        1     0.71  47.321999      0     0
3        0     2.07  20.966999      0    10
4        1     1.15  21.486000      0    12
5        1     1.10  40.874001      1    14

[5 rows x 5 columns]

N.B。我不得不手动将wells.dat放在那个位置,所以我不能发誓我正确地复制它并且没有终端空白,因为我删除了一些。但是传递read_csv BytesIO对象和编码参数应该有效。 (实际上,没有它你可能会离开,但这是一个好习惯。io.TextIOWrapper可能是另一种选择。)

要将string传递给pandas read_csv(),您可以使用io.StringIO,即:

import pandas as pd
from io import StringIO
df = pd.read_csv(StringIO("csv string..."))
