VS Code - CSV Export - Change the delimitter

BjegoNov 19 2019 — edited Mar 23 2020

Hey guys,

the csv export in VS Code should be configurable. At the moment the delimitter is "," and "," values in columns aren't escaped. Not sure if escaping is possible in csv... Anyway..

Please add a config option to change the default limitter and the delimitter for a current csv export (maybe via another dropdown or what ever)..

Thanks in advance!

This would be incredibly helpful. Being able to pick a delimiter would solve the problem for me - it's a pain to process the CSV files right now as the data I'm querying seems to always strings with commas. Since I can't get the preview window to display all rows nor the size of the result set by default, I end up exporting every result set but have to do further processing in order to use it due to the comma limitations.

+1 Being able to change the delimiter would be VERY helpful. Also being able to define the text identifier for the CSV would also be helpful.

Thanks all for the feedback about CSV delimiters. This is on our list of future features.

Hi,
We just released version 19.3.4 which adds 2 settings for CSV delimiters and string encapsulation. Could you please try it out and let me know what you think?
