This resolves issue #355 (closed) by adding a further option to csvjson that allows you to specify that you want to output a stream of newline delimited json object rather than an array of all objects.
To see this in action, consult the tests or:
csvjson --stream examples/dummy3.csv
Result:
{"a": "1", "b": "2", "c": "3"}
{"a": "1", "b": "4", "c": "5"}Original:
csvjson examples/dummy3.csv
Result:
[{"a": "1", "b": "2", "c": "3"}, {"a": "1", "b": "4", "c": "5"}]Note: This will not work (and in fact error) if you to use the stream option alongside lat/lon/key options because all of these output a top level json object anyway.
Implementation notes:
I tried to keep the changes minimal, but I did extract dump_json to allow me to diversify where it was called from.
I am not too familiar with python. Tried to keep to conventions, but please feel free to met me know if you would like any improvements.
