League\Csv Read Without Filtering Empty Rows/Lines

Question

I'm using League\Csv to reformat CSVs. I'm reading in a CSV, manipulating the data, then writing the result out to a new CSV.

Reading the docs it says when reading a CSV it will

Filter out the empty lines;

Is there any way to stop this from happening?

Answer 1

Have you tried using a Statement object to process the Reader? It gives you more control over the selected rows. Perhaps the default statement would not include empty row filtering.
