Convert TSV to NDJSON

Tab-separated values (TSV) is another simple and widely used format for storing tabular data. Like CSV, it's easy to read and create.

Row delimiter

The row delimiter in TSV data is usually a new line character (LF) or a carriage return plus a new line character (CRLF).

We'll automatically detect and parse the rows correctly, so you don't need to worry about it.

Value separator

In TSV files, the value separator is typically a tab character, but it can vary depending on the software used to create the file.

Character encoding

The character encoding of your TSV file might differ based on the software you used to create it.

If you're not sure about the character encoding, don't worry. We'll try to guess it automatically if it's not specified.

NDJSON (Newline Delimited JSON) is a format where each line is a valid JSON object, making it easier to process large datasets sequentially.

Technical Details

Each line in an NDJSON file is a complete, self-contained JSON object ended by a newline character. This allows for streaming processing without loading the entire file into memory.

Advantages

• Streaming-friendly for large datasets
• Easy to append new records
• Each record can be processed independently
• Simpler to parse than JSON arrays for large datasets

Limitations

• No support for cross-record references
• Less widely supported than standard JSON
• Each line must be a complete JSON object
• Not suitable for deeply nested relationships
