-----------------------------------------
Summary: Support row skipping when reading CSV files
Key: SPARK-42359
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-42359
Project: Spark
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: SQL
Affects Versions: 3.3.1
Reporter: Willi Raschkowski
Spark currently can't read CSV files that contain lines with comments or
annotations above the header and data. Work-arounds include pre-processing
CSVs, or using RDDs and something like {{zipWithIndex}}. But all of these
increase friction for less technical users.
This issue proposes a {{skipLines}} option for Spark's CSV parser to drop a
number of unwanted lines at the top of a CSV file.
