=== Source and Output Formats

You can use a Unix-style "filter" for \CSV data.
The filter reads source \CSV data and writes output \CSV data as modified by the filter.
The input and output \CSV data may be any mixture of \Strings and \IO streams.

==== Filtering \String to \String

You can filter one \String to another, with or without headers.

===== Recipe: Filter \String to \String parsing Headers

Use class method CSV.filter with option +headers+ to filter a \String to another \String:
  in_string = "Name,Value\nfoo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n"
  out_string = ''
  CSV.filter(in_string, out_string, headers: true) do |row|
    row['Name'] = row['Name'].upcase
    row['Value'] *= 4
  end
  out_string # => "FOO,0000\nBAR,1111\nBAZ,2222\n"

===== Recipe: Filter \String to \String parsing and writing Headers

Use class method CSV.filter with option +headers+ and +out_write_headers+ to filter a \String to another \String including header row:
  in_string = "Name,Value\nfoo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n"
  out_string = ''
  CSV.filter(in_string, out_string, headers: true, out_write_headers: true) do |row|
    unless row.is_a?(Array)
      row['Name'] = row['Name'].upcase
      row['Value'] *= 4
    end
  end
  out_string # => "Name,Value\nFOO,0000\nBAR,1111\nBAZ,2222\n"

===== Recipe: Filter \String to \String Without Headers

Use class method CSV.filter without option +headers+ to filter a \String to another \String:
  in_string = "foo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n"
  out_string = ''
  CSV.filter(in_string, out_string) do |row|
    row[0] = row[0].upcase
    row[1] *= 4
  end
  out_string # => "FOO,0000\nBAR,1111\nBAZ,2222\n"

==== Filtering \String to \IO Stream

You can filter a \String to an \IO stream, with or without headers.

===== Recipe: Filter \String to \IO Stream parsing Headers

Use class method CSV.filter with option +headers+ to filter a \String to an \IO stream:
  in_string = "Name,Value\nfoo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n"
  path = 't.csv'
  File.open(path, 'w') do |out_io|
    CSV.filter(in_string, out_io, headers: true) do |row|
      row['Name'] = row['Name'].upcase
      row['Value'] *= 4
    end
  end
  p File.read(path) # => "FOO,0000\nBAR,1111\nBAZ,2222\n"

===== Recipe: Filter \String to \IO Stream parsing and writing Headers

Use class method CSV.filter with option +headers+ and +out_write_headers+ to filter a \String to an \IO stream including header row:
  in_string = "Name,Value\nfoo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n"
  path = 't.csv'
  File.open(path, 'w') do |out_io|
    CSV.filter(in_string, out_io, headers: true, out_write_headers: true ) do |row|
      unless row.is_a?(Array)
        row['Name'] = row['Name'].upcase
        row['Value'] *= 4
      end
    end
  end
  p File.read(path) # => "Name,Value\nFOO,0000\nBAR,1111\nBAZ,2222\n"

===== Recipe: Filter \String to \IO Stream Without Headers

Use class method CSV.filter without option +headers+ to filter a \String to an \IO stream:
  in_string = "foo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n"
  path = 't.csv'
  File.open(path, 'w') do |out_io|
    CSV.filter(in_string, out_io) do |row|
      row[0] = row[0].upcase
      row[1] *= 4
    end
  end
  p File.read(path) # => "FOO,0000\nBAR,1111\nBAZ,2222\n"

==== Filtering \IO Stream to \String

You can filter an \IO stream to a \String, with or without headers.

===== Recipe: Filter \IO Stream to \String parsing Headers

Use class method CSV.filter with option +headers+ to filter an \IO stream to a \String:
  in_string = "Name,Value\nfoo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n"
  path = 't.csv'
  File.write(path, in_string)
  out_string = ''
  File.open(path) do |in_io|
    CSV.filter(in_io, out_string, headers: true) do |row|
      row['Name'] = row['Name'].upcase
      row['Value'] *= 4
    end
  end
  out_string # => "FOO,0000\nBAR,1111\nBAZ,2222\n"

===== Recipe: Filter \IO Stream to \String parsing and writing Headers

Use class method CSV.filter with option +headers+ and +out_write_headers+ to filter an \IO stream to a \String including header row:
  in_string = "Name,Value\nfoo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n"
  path = 't.csv'
  File.write(path, in_string)
  out_string = ''
  File.open(path) do |in_io|
    CSV.filter(in_io, out_string, headers: true, out_write_headers: true) do |row|
      unless row.is_a?(Array)
        row['Name'] = row['Name'].upcase
        row['Value'] *= 4
