You need PHP >= 5.5.0 and the mbstring extension to use Csv but the latest stable version of PHP/HHVM is recommended.

Install Csv using Composer.

$ composer require league/csv

Warning: If your CSV document was created or is read on a Macintosh computer, add the following lines before using the library to help PHP detect line ending.

if (!ini_get("auto_detect_line_endings")) {
    ini_set("auto_detect_line_endings", '1');
}

Csv has a PHPUnit test suite and a coding style compliance test suite using PHP CS Fixer. To run the tests, run the following command from the project folder.

$ composer test
