TSV

TSV (Tab Separated Values) files are the same as CSV files, except values in a row are separated by a tab.

Values within a row are separated by tabs. Rows are separated by newlines.

TSV files often start with a header row that has column names, but this is not required.

Each row in a TSV file mush have the same number of values as the header row.

TSV files do not enforce types or a schema. This means that each column can have multiple types, which can make analysis difficult and compression inefficient.

Parquet files can be easier to analyze and compress better than TSV files.

JSON

Java Script Object Notation (JSON) is a format that was designed for use with the Javascript Programming Language.

JSON files do not have a schema or required columns. Each row can have different field names and types. This can

make JSON files difficult to analyze.

How to convert TSV to JSON in Python

We can convert TSV to JSON in Python using Pandas or DuckDB

How to Convert TSV to JSON using Pandas

First, we need to install pandas

pip install pandas

Then we can load the TSV file into a dataframe

df = pd.read_csv('path/to/file.tsv', sep='\t')

Finally, we can export the dataframe to the JSON format

df.to_json('path/to/file.json', index=False)

How to Convert TSV to JSON using DuckDB

First, we need to install duckdb for Python

 pip install duckdb

The following DuckDB query will read a TSV file and output a JSON file

duckdb.sql("""COPY (select * from 'path/to/file.tsv') TO 'path/to/file.json' (FORMAT 'json')""")
