+ ReadStat: Read (and write) data sets from SAS, Stata, and SPSS
7
+ ==
8
+
9
+ Originally developed for [Wizard](https://www.wizardmac.com/), ReadStat is a
10
+ command-line tool and MIT-licensed C library for reading files from popular
11
+ stats packages. Supported data formats include:
12
+
13
+ * SAS: SAS7BDAT (binary file) and XPORT (transport file)
14
+ * Stata: DTA (binary file) versions 104-119
15
+ * SPSS: POR (portable file), SAV (binary file), and ZSAV (compressed binary)
16
+
17
+ Supported metadata formats include:
18
+
19
+ * SAS: SAS7BCAT (catalog file) and .sas (command file)
20
+ * Stata: .dct (dictionary file)
21
+ * SPSS: .sps (command file)
22
+
23
+ There is also write support for all the data formats, but not the metadata
24
+ formats. *The produced SAS7BDAT files still cannot be read by SAS*, but feel
25
+ free to contribute your binary-format expertise here.
26
+
27
+ For reading in R data files, please see the related
28
+ [librdata](https://github.com/WizardMac/librdata) project.
29
+
30
+ Installation on Unix / macOS
31
+ --
32
+
33
+ Grab the latest [release](https://github.com/WizardMac/ReadStat/releases) and
34
+ then proceed as usual:
35
+
36
+ ./configure
37
+ make
38
+ sudo make install
39
+
40
+ If you're cloning the repository, first make sure you have autotools installed,
41
+ and then run `./autogen.sh` to generate the configure file.
42
+
43
+ If you're on Mac and see errors about `AM_ICONV` when you run `./autogen.sh`,
44
+ you'll need to install [gettext](https://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/).
45
+
46
+ Installation on Windows
47
+ --
48
+
49
+ ReadStat now includes a Microsoft Visual Studio project file that includes
50
+ build targets for the library and tests. See the [VS17](./VS17) folder in
51
+ the downloaded release for a "one-click" Windows build.
52
+
53
+ Alternatively, you can build ReadStat on the command line using an
54
+ [msys2](https://msys2.github.io/) environment. After installing msys2,
55
+ download some other packages:
56
+
57
+ pacman -S autoconf automake libtool make mingw-w64-x86_64-toolchain mingw-w64-x86_64-cmake mingw-w64-x86_64-libiconv
58
+
59
+ Then start a MINGW command line (not the msys2 prompt!) and follow the UNIX
60
+ install instructions above for this package.
61
+

77
+
78
+ Command-line Usage
79
+ --
80
+
81
+ Standard usage:
82
+
83
+ readstat [-f] <input file> <output file>
84
+
85
+ Where:
86
+
87
+ * `<input file>` ends with `.dta`, `.por`, `.sav`, `.sas7bdat`, or `.xpt`and
88
+ * `<output file>` ends with `.dta`, `.por`, `.sav`, `.sas7bdat`, `.xpt` or `.csv`
89
+
90
+ If [libxlsxwriter](http://libxlsxwriter.github.io) is found at compile-time, an
91
+ XLSX file (ending in `.xlsx`) can be written instead.
92
+
93
+ If zlib is found at compile-time, compressed SPSS files (`.zsav`) can be read
94
+ and written as well.
95
+
96
+ Use the `-f` option to overwrite an existing output file.
97
+
98
+ If you have a plain-text file described by a Stata dictionary file, a SAS
99
+ command file, or an SPSS command file, a second invocation style is supported:
100
+
101
+ readstat <input file> <dictionary file> <output file>
102
+
103
+ Where:
104
+
105
+ * `<input file>` can be anything
106
+ * `<dictionary file>` ends with `.dct`, `.sas`, or `.sps`
107
+ * `<output file>` ends with `.dta`, `.por`, `.sav`, `.xpt`, or `.csv`
108
+
109
+ If you have a SAS catalog file containing the data set's value labels, you
110
+ can use the same invocation:
111
+
112
+ readstat <input file> <catalog file> <output file>
113
+
114
+ Except where:
115
+
116
+ * `<input file>` ends with `.sas7bdat`
117
+ * `<catalog file>` ends with `.sas7bcat`
118
+ * `<output file>` ends with `.dta`, `.por`, `.sav`, `.xpt`, or `.csv`
119
+
120
+ If the file conversion succeeds, ReadStat will report the number of rows and
121
+ variables converted, e.g.
122
+
123
+ Converted 111 variables and 160851 rows in 12.36 seconds
124
+
125
+ At the moment value labels are supported, but the finer nuances of converting
126
+ format strings (e.g. `%8.2g`) are not.
127
+
128
+ Command-line Usage with CSV input
129
+ --
130
+
131
+ A prerequisite for CSV input is that the [libcsv](https://github.com/rgamble/libcsv)
132
+ library is found at compile time.
133
+
134
+ CSV input is supported together with a metadata file describing the data:
135
+
136
+ readstat <input file.csv> <input metadata.json> <output file>
137
+
138
+ The `<output file>` should end with `.dta`, `.sav`, or `.csv`.
139
+
140
+ The `<input file.csv>` is a regular CSV file.
141
+
142
+ The `<input metadata.json>` is a JSON file describing column types, value
143
+ labels and missing values. The easiest way to create such a metadata file is to
144
+ use the provided `extract_metadata` program on an existing file:
145
+
146
+ $ extract_metadata <input file.(dta|sav|sas7bcat)>
147
+
148
+ The schema of this JSON file is fully described in
149
+ [variablemetadata_schema.json](variablemetadata_schema.json) using [JSON
150
+ Schema](http://json-schema.org/).
151
+
152
+ The following is an example of a valid metadata file:
153
+
154
+ {
155
+ "type": "SPSS",
156
+ "variables": [
157
+ {
158
+ "type": "NUMERIC",
159
+ "name": "citizenship",
160
+ "label": "Citizenship of respondent",
161
+ "categories": [
162
+ {
163
+ "code": 1,
164
+ "label": "Afghanistan"
165
+ },
166
+ {
167
+ "code": 2,
168
+ "label": "Albania"
169
+ },
170
+ {
171
+ "code": 98,
172
+ "label": "No answer"
173
+ },
174
+ {
175
+ "code": 99,
176
+ "label": "Not applicable"
177
+ }
178
+ ],
179
+ "missing": {
180
+ "type": "DISCRETE",
181
+ "values": [
182
+ 98,
183
+ 99
184
+ ]
185
+ }
186
+ }
187
+ ]
188
+ }
189
+
190
+ Here the column `citizenship` is a numeric column with four possible values `1`, `2`, `98`, and `99`.
191
+ `1` has the label `Afghanistan`, `2` has `Albania`, `98` has `No answer` and `99` has `Not applicable`.
192
+ `98` and `99` are defined as missing values.
193
+
194
+ Other column types are `STRING` and `DATE`.
195
+ All values in `DATE` columns are expected to conform to [ISO 8601 date](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601).
196
+ Here is an example of `DATE` metadata:
197
+
198
+ {
199
+ "type": "SPSS",
200
+ "variables": [
201
+ {
202
+ "type": "DATE",
203
+ "name": "startdate",
204
+ "label": "Start date",
205
+ "categories": [
206
+ {
207
+ "code": "6666-01-01",
208
+ "label": "no date available"
209
+ }
210
+ ],
211
+ "missing": {
212
+ "type": "DISCRETE",
213
+ "values": [
214
+ "6666-01-01",
215
+ "9999-01-01"
216
+ ]
217
+ }
218
+ }
219
+ ]
220
+ }
221
+
222
+ Value labels are supported for `DATE`.
223
+
224
+ The last column type is `STRING`:
225
+
226
+ {
227
+ "type": "SPSS",
228
+ "variables": [
229
+ {
230
+ "type": "STRING",
231
+ "name": "somestring",
232
+ "label": "Label of column",
233
+ "missing": {
234
+ "type": "DISCRETE",
235
+ "values": [
236
+ "NA",
237
+ "N/A"
238
+ ]
239
+ }
240
+ }
241
+ ]
242
+ }
243
+
244
+ Value labels are not supported for `STRING`.
245
+
246
+ Library Usage: Reading Files
247
+ --
248
+
249
+ The ReadStat API is callback-based. It uses very little memory, and is suitable
250
+ for programs with progress bars. ReadStat uses
251
+ [iconv](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iconv) to automatically transcode
252
+ text data into UTF-8, so you don't have to worry about character encodings.
253
+
254
+ See src/readstat.h for the complete API. In general you'll provide a filename
255
+ and a set of optional callback functions for handling various information and
256
+ data found in the file. It's up to the user to store this information in an
257
+ appropriate data structure. If a context pointer is passed to the parse_* functions,
258
+ it will be made available to the various callback functions.
259
+
260
+ Callback functions should return `READSTAT_HANDLER_OK` (zero) on success.
261
+ Returning `READSTAT_HANDLER_ABORT` will abort the parsing process.
262
+
263
+ Example: Return the number of records in a DTA file.
264
+
265
+ ```c
266
+ #include "readstat.h"
267
+
268
+ int handle_metadata(readstat_metadata_t *metadata, void *ctx) {
269
+ int *my_count = (int *)ctx;
270
+
271
+ *my_count = readstat_get_row_count(metadata);
272
+
273
+ return READSTAT_HANDLER_OK;
274
+ }
275
+
276
+ int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
277
+ if (argc != 2) {
278
+ printf("Usage: %s <filename>\n", argv[0]);
279
+ return 1;
280
+ }
281
+ int my_count = 0;
282
+ readstat_error_t error = READSTAT_OK;
283
+ readstat_parser_t *parser = readstat_parser_init();
284
+ readstat_set_metadata_handler(parser, &handle_metadata);
285
+
286
+ error = readstat_parse_dta(parser, argv[1], &my_count);
287
+
288
+ readstat_parser_free(parser);
289
+
290
+ if (error != READSTAT_OK) {
291
+ printf("Error processing %s: %d\n", argv[1], error);
292
+ return 1;
293
+ }
294
+ printf("Found %d records\n", my_count);
295
+ return 0;
296
+ }
297
+ ```
298
+
299
+ Example: Convert a DTA to a tab-separated file.
300
+
301
+ ```c
302
+ #include "readstat.h"
303

378
+ Library Usage: Writing Files
379
+ --
380
+
381
+ ReadStat can write data sets to a number of file formats, and uses largely the
382
+ same API for each of them. Files are written incrementally, with the header
383
+ written first, followed by individual rows of data, and ending with some kind
384
+ of trailer. (So the full data file never resides in memory.) Unlike like the
385
+ callback-based API for reading files, the writer API consists of function that
386
+ the developer must call in a particular order. The complete API can be found in
387
+ [readstat.h](./src/readstat.h).
388
+
389
+ Basic usage:
390
+
391
+ ```c
392
+ #include "readstat.h"
393
+
394
+ /* A callback for writing bytes to your file descriptor of choice */
395
+ /* The ctx argument comes from the readstat_begin_writing_xxx function */
396
+ static ssize_t write_bytes(const void *data, size_t len, void *ctx) {
397
+ int fd = *(int *)ctx;
398
+ return write(fd, data, len);
399
+ }
400
+
401
+ int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
402
+ readstat_writer_t *writer = readstat_writer_init();
403
+ readstat_set_data_writer(writer, &write_bytes);
404
+ readstat_writer_set_file_label(writer, "My data set");
405
+
406
+ int row_count = 1;
407
+
408
+ readstat_variable_t *variable = readstat_add_variable(writer, "Var1", READSTAT_TYPE_DOUBLE, 0);
409
+ readstat_variable_set_label(variable, "First variable");
410
+
411
+ /* Call one of:
412
+ * readstat_begin_writing_dta
413
+ * readstat_begin_writing_por
414
+ * readstat_begin_writing_sas7bdat
415
+ * readstat_begin_writing_sav
416
+ * readstat_begin_writing_xport
417
+ */
418
+
419
+ int fd = open("something.dta", O_CREAT | O_WRONLY);
420
+ readstat_begin_writing_dta(writer, &fd, row_count);
421
+
422
+ int i;
423
+ for (i=0; i<row_count; i++) {
424
+ readstat_begin_row(writer);
425
+ readstat_insert_double_value(writer, variable, 1.0 * i);
426
+ readstat_end_row(writer);
427
+ }
428
+
429
+ readstat_end_writing(writer);
430
+ readstat_writer_free(writer);
431
+ close(fd);
432
+
433
+ return 0;
434
+ }
435
+ ```
436
+
437
+ Fuzz Testing
438
+ --
439
+
440
+ To assist in fuzz testing, ReadStat ships with target files designed to work
441
+ with [libFuzzer](http://llvm.org/docs/LibFuzzer.html). Clang 6 or later is
442
+ required.
443
+
444
+ 1. `./configure --enable-fuzz-testing` turns on useful sanitizer and sanitizer-coverage flags
445
+ 1. `make` will create a new binary called `generate_corpus`. Running this
446
+ program will use the ReadStat test suite to create a corpus of test files in
447
+ `corpus/`. There is a subdirectory for each sub-format (`dta104`, `dta105`,
448
+ etc.). Currently a total of 468 files are created.
449
+ 1. If fuzz-testing has been enabled, `make` will also create fourteen fuzzer
450
+ targets, one for each of seven file formats, six for internally used
451
+ grammars, and two fuzzers for testing the compression routines.
452
+ * `fuzz_format_dta`
453
+ * `fuzz_format_por`
454
+ * `fuzz_format_sas7bcat`
455
+ * `fuzz_format_sas7bdat`
456
+ * `fuzz_format_sav`
457
+ * `fuzz_format_xport`
458
+ * `fuzz_format_stata_dictionary`
459
+ * `fuzz_grammar_dta_timestamp`
460
+ * `fuzz_grammar_por_double`
461
+ * `fuzz_grammar_sav_date`
462
+ * `fuzz_grammar_sav_time`
463
+ * `fuzz_grammar_spss_format`
464
+ * `fuzz_grammar_xport_format`
465
+ * `fuzz_compression_sas_rle`
466
+ * `fuzz_compression_sav`
467
+
468
+ For best results, each sub-directory of the corpus should be passed to the relevant fuzzer, e.g.:
469
+
470
+ * `./fuzz_format_dta corpus/dta104`
471
+ * `./fuzz_format_dta corpus/dta110`
472
+ * ...
473
+ * `./fuzz_format_sav corpus/sav`
474
+ * `./fuzz_format_sav corpus/zsav`
475
+ * `./fuzz_format_xport corpus/xpt5`
476
+ * `./fuzz_format_xport corpus/xpt8`
477
+
478
+ Finally, the compression fuzzers can be invoked without a corpus:
479
+
480
+ * `./fuzz_compression_sas_rle`
481
+ * `./fuzz_compression_sav`
482
+
483
+
