I will write a script to parse, process, or extract data from your files


About this gig
Got files that need processing but no time to do it by hand? I write clean, reliable scripts that automate the data work you'd rather not do manually - usually delivered same day.
What I can help with:
- Extract fields or columns from CSV, TSV, or Excel files
- Convert formats: CSV to JSON, JSON to XML, TSV to CSV
- Parse log files and generate summaries or reports
- Merge, split, deduplicate, sort, or filter data files
- Bulk rename or organize files by pattern or date
- Flatten nested JSON or XML into spreadsheet rows
- Aggregate data: totals, unique counts, averages per group
- Normalize messy fields: dates, phone numbers, encodings
- Extract matching lines or patterns from large text files
- Handles files of any size streams data, no memory limits
What you get: clean, readable code with clear usage docs. Works on macOS and Linux. Bash, Python, or Node.js - I pick the best fit for your task and environment.

FAQ
What do you need to get started?
A sample of your input file(s), a description of the output you want, and any environment requirements (OS, language, etc.). The more concrete the better.
Can you handle large files?
Yes. Scripts stream data rather than loading it all into memory, so they work on files of any size.
Which languages do you use?
Bash/awk/sed, Python, and Node.js. I pick whatever fits your environment and task best — or match your preference if you have one.
What if I don't know what format my files are?
Send me a sample and describe what you want out of it. I'll figure out the rest.
Can you schedule the script to run automatically?
Yes — cron (Linux/macOS) or launchd (macOS) setup is available as an add-on.
What if my job is bigger than the Premium package?
Message me before ordering and I'll send a custom quote.
Do you work on Windows?
Scripts can target Windows via WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux). Mention it upfront and I'll account for it.
What if the result doesn't match what I expected?
Revisions are included in every package. If I've misunderstood the requirements, I'll fix it.
