please help me how to read this csv in casperjs

[Santosh Maruwada]

I have an excel sheet with 10-20 links of websites.

Now I want to make a script which reads each link and searches for it over the netI'm using this code but it's not working..

Can someone please help.

var fs = require('fs');

casper.start(casper.cli.get(0));

casper.then(function() {

        f = fs.open('KwenchPOI.csv','r');

        for(i = 0; i < 10; i++) {

                var a=f.readLine();

                casper.start('a', function() {

                        this.echo(this.fetchText('p'));

                });

        }

        f.close(); 

 });

casper.run();

Hello Santosh Maruwada,

I wrote a quick script for you (tested and validated on my side).

var casper = require('casper').create();
var links = [];

casper.start();

casper.then(function() {

    var fs = require('fs');

    var i = 0;
   
    stream = fs.open('./data/KwenchPOI.csv', 'r');
    line = stream.readLine();
   
    // import data from csv file into the array
    while(line) {
        links[i] = line;
        line = stream.readLine();
        i++;
    }

    stream.close();
    casper.echo('\n'+i+' lines read from KwenchPOI.csv file\n');
});

casper.then(function() {
    // loop on array
    casper.each(links, function(self, link) {
        casper.echo(link);
    });
});

casper.run();

I hope it will help you :)
