Project Synopsis

The objective was to create a data reader application that reads various data formats, such as JSON, XML, and plain text.

The client expected seamless data extraction from diverse file types, ensuring compatibility and flexibility.

Through this, they wanted to selectively define instructions and parameters to extract and manipulate desired data from different sources. This integration ensures customization and adaptability to different data processing needs.

Project Requirements

The main requirement was to provide a flexible and effective data reader function to read several data types, including plain text, XML, and JSON. This function has to support the seamless extraction of data from various file types, guaranteeing compatibility and flexibility.

  • The function should be integrated with a TOML configuration file to enable the development of specific data extraction rules. It will allow defining instructions and parameters to selectively extract and manipulate desired data from different sources. 
  • After reading and extracting the desired data, the function should convert it into a structured CSV file. The CSV conversion process should maintain the integrity and formatting of the extracted data, ensuring accuracy and consistency in the resulting output.
  • It involves creating a comprehensive test case suite covering various data formats and edge cases. The unit tests should validate the functionality of the data reader, ensuring accurate data extraction and proper CSV conversion.
