Read CSV to dicts

read_csv_to_dicts.py

def read_csv_to_dicts(filename):
    with open(filename) as csvfile:
        reader = csv.reader(csvfile, dialect='excel')
        header = transform_header(next(reader))

        if len(header) != len(set(header)):
            raise ValueError("Duplicate column names in CSV.")

        data = [{field: value for field, value in zip(header, row)}
                for row in reader]

        if 'doc_id' not in header:
            data = [{'doc_id': 'doc{}'.format(i), **d}
                    for i, d in enumerate(data)]

    return data

what does transform_header do?

@tbmreza I don't remember anymore, sorry!
