camel-csv ignore first row

Hi Guys,

I am using the camel-csv component and I was wondering if I can ignore the first row of the csv while doing the unmarshalling.

First row being the csv headers.

Please advise.

Regards,

Mohit

That is actually a good quesiton

The commons-csv project that is used by the camel-csv is not an active project. You can configure the CSV data format using a CSVConfig class. But looking at the class there do not seem to be a skipFirstLine option.

So I have logged a JIRA to improved this
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-5166

There is another CSV library that has this option, ignoreFirstRecord. Its the camel-flatpack
