             Summary: [freemarker-cli] Proof Of Concept for providing DataFrames
                 Key: FREEMARKER-144
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FREEMARKER-144
             Project: Apache Freemarker
          Issue Type: Task
            Reporter: Siegfried Goeschl


Sometime the user need to massage tabular data coming from CSV or an Excel 
sheet, eg.. joining on columns

* There is some ad-hoc code in the CSV tool
* I had a look at available DataFrame libraries (see 
https://medium.com/@thijser/doing-cool-data-science-in-java-how-3-dataframe-libraries-stack-up-5e6ccb7b437)

I finally found [nRo/DataFrame|https://github.com/nRo/DataFrame] and it would 
make a good fit

* Comes with MIT licence
* Depends only on `antlr4-runtime` and `slf4j`
* It's API would fit nicely into a FreeMarker Template
* It provides a DataFrame implementation and some basic transformations
* It currently does not support temporal column types

What I would like to implement is

* Reading CSV & Excel into a DataFrame
* Write a DataFrame to CSV
