About this asset

CSV Standard: Automated Object Hydration

Takes your data and gets it into your hierarchy

Canley CSV Standard builds upon the Lite core by adding a sophisticated "Hydration Engine" that eliminates manual data entry.

  • One-Line Table Population: Use Load() to automatically ingest an entire CSV file, instantly matching headers to C# fields and hydrating a full list of objects.
  • Smart Type Orchestration: Native support for all C# Scalars (strings, decimals, primitives), Enums, and Bools.
  • Unity Spatial Structs: Automatically hydrates complex Unity types including Vector2, Vector3, Color, and Quaternions (supporting both Euler and raw formats).
  • Custom Extensibility: Includes OnImport and OnExport hooks to intercept any custom string format and hydrate your objects exactly how you need them.

Includes CSV Lite: The Performance Foundation

Lite is designed for developers who need a reliable, high-speed reader and writer without the overhead of complex class mapping.

  • RFC 4180 Compliance: Handles complex CSV features like fields containing commas, double-quotes, or literal newlines without corruption.
  • Zero-Allocation Access: Optimized for sub-millisecond parsing with minimal garbage collection pressure.
  • Engineered Stability: Uses a character-based state machine and an automatic BOM (Byte Order Mark) stripper to fix common Excel export issues.

Canley CSV Standard: Technical Specifications

The orchestration layer. Includes all Lite features plus the automated Hydration Pipeline.

  • Architecture: ScriptableObject-driven database using a dual-table architecture (Master Data in Resources vs. Dynamic User Data in Persistent Data).
  • Orchestration: CSVTable<T> manages the data lifecycle, providing a structured List<T> of programmable objects instead of a raw string grid.
  • GetRecord() / GetRecords(): Database-style querying using IDs, Labels, or Predicate Lambda filters (e.g., r => r.health > 10).Primary Public Methods:
    Load() / LoadPolymorphic():     The primary entry point. One-line command to locate files, clear memory, and populate the table.
    SaveTable(): Smart serialization that merges live game data with the Shadow Dictionary to prevent data loss.
  • Regional Normalization: Smart parsing that detects and converts regional decimal separators (e.g., converting "1,5" to "1.5") for global compatibility.Advanced Unity Type Support:
    Native Mapping:     Automatically translates CSV strings into Vector2/3, Color (Hex), Enums, Booleans, and Quaternions (Euler or Raw modes).
  • Hardened Type Gate: Validation modes (Silent, Warn, Fail) that ensure data integrity during the hydration process.Data Integrity:
    Shadow Dictionary:     A private rawValues dictionary in every CSVRecord that preserves 100% of source data, including columns not defined in your C# class.
  • Intervention Hooks: OnImport and OnExport virtual methods for custom asset bridging (e.g., hydrating Sprites from a filename).
  • UI Automation: Built-in SpawnUI method that uses the ICSVDisplayable<T> interface to instantly instantiate and populate prefabs from your data.

Canley CSV Lite: Technical Specifications

The high-performance core. Optimized for speed, memory efficiency, and data integrity.

  • Engine: Character-based State Machine (Non-allocating parser).
  • Compliance: Full RFC 4180 support (Handles escaped commas, quotes, and multiline cells).
  • Performance: Sub-millisecond parsing; zero-allocation data access paths.
  • File I/O: Supports Resources, StreamingAssets, and Persistent Data paths.
  • Reliability: Automatic BOM (Byte Order Mark) stripping and structural column validation.
  • Compatibility: Unity 2022.3+ (including Unity 6), all platforms (PC, Mobile, WebGL).

Compatibility

Unity version Built-in URP HDRP
2022.3.62f3

Pipeline & Unity 6 Ready

Fully compatible with Built-in, URP, and HDRP. This is a pure C# utility with zero rendering dependencies, making the core logic completely UI-agnostic.

  • Unity 6 Verified: Follows modern SRP standards with clean Assembly Definition isolation.
  • Demo Scenes: Built for Built-in & URP, utilizing TextMesh Pro for crisp, multi-pipeline visual consistency.
