Splitting a large CSV file into multiple small csv files for better processing using Split features at your local disk & Merge will merge back to small files into one large file. This is a first sample version.
As of now, this will create splitted file with the extension known as "splitted". Make sure that your original file should not contain the same naming pattern.
Your source file name for example - customer_addr_20180112.csv
Your split file name will will be given below:
1__customer_addr_20180112__splitted_.csv
2__customer_addr_20180112__splitted_.csv
....
N__customer_addr_20180112__splitted_.csv
Where N would be any number based on the size of the file. Bye default, each chunk will contain at least 30000 or less number of records.
For merge, it will pick-up from the temp directory as mentioned in the bottom of this page. And, it will create a final merged file with this kind of naming convention -
customer_addr_20180112_.csv
Final, file will be places under process directory. Please refer the bottom of this page for directory structure & placement of the main calling file.
This package requires pandas & regular expression package to be installed in your python environment.
Sample Code to use this library. You can name it as ->
callSplitMergeFiles.py
from SplitMerge.clsSplitFiles import clsSplitFiles
from SplitMerge.clsMergeFiles import clsMergeFiles
import re
import platform as pl
import os
def main():
print("Calling the custom Package for large file splitting..")
os_det = pl.system()
print("Running on :", os_det)

Bug Fix: 1. Module loading issue fixed. 2. Source & Target directory as per developer's choice. Dependancy Package: You need to install followig packages in order to run this package -
pip install pandas pip install regex
Directory Structure shoould be like ->
-> \callSplitMergeFiles.py
-> \process\
-> \src_file\
-> \temp\
