Best tools to parse reports
- by Andy Schaefer
I have a report that I need to parse/scrape for loading into an alternate or query-able data store.
The report looks like something akin to: this.
My gut is that PERL would do a decent job, but I have several different permutations of the report and I don't really want to make a script around each form.
This report is a pretty stock type report, and I have seen where Monarch Pro can parse these types of reports, but I have had a difficult time finding alternatives to how these could be parsed since I'm looking to do this working primarily in a Linux environment.
Any suggestions?
