It provides four main classes\u2014AsyncReader, AsyncDictReader, AsyncWriter, and AsyncDictWriter\u2014that accept objects with async read() or write() coroutines instead of file-like objects. This allows you to process CSV data without blocking the event loop, making it suitable for I/O-bound applications that need to handle multiple concurrent file operations or integrate CSV processing into larger async workflows.\n\nThe library implements its own custom CSV parser for reading (matching CPython's behavior) and wraps the synchronous csv module's serializers for writing. It requires Python 3.10+ and has a single runtime dependency on typing_extensions. The C extension provides performance optimization, though pre-built wheels are available for most platforms; you may need a compiler if your configuration is uncommon.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need async CSV I/O in an asyncio application. The library is actively maintained, permissively licensed, has no known vulnerabilities, and offers a drop-in async replacement for the standard csv module. Install friction is moderate due to the C extension, but pre-built wheels cover common platforms. Not necessary if you only need synchronous CSV processing or are not using asyncio."},"id":"aiocsv","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/aiocsv","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/aiocsv.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/aiocsv/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-05-22","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"aiocsv","python_support":"supports_current","summary":null},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":1593923,"position":3732,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.4.1"}
