You can wrap the file passed into DictReader so that it yelds each
line along with the dict like so:
import csv
def csv_with_line(infile):
last_line = [None]
def line_rememberer():
for line in infile:
last_line[0] = line
yield line
rows = csv.DictReader(line_rememberer())
for lineno, row in enumerate(rows, 2):
yield lineno, last_line[0], row
infile = ['a,b,c', '1,2,3', '4,5,6']
for lineno, line, row in csv_with_line(infile):
print(lineno, line, row)
