Support composite units of measure in CsvProvider/HtmlProvider

Open ovatsus opened this issue 12 years ago • 6 comments

The Freebase provider already supports it (see https://github.com/fsharp/FSharp.Data/blob/master/src/Freebase/FreebaseProvider.fs#L191) Do the same for CsvProvider/HtmlProvider

We now support a very basic subset of this: https://github.com/fsharp/FSharp.Data/blob/master/src/CommonRuntime/StructuralInference.fs#L307

parseUnitOfMeasure needs to be extended here: https://github.com/fsharp/FSharp.Data/blob/master/src/CommonRuntime/StructuralInference.fs#L312

Dear Ovatsus,

I would like to use the CsvProvider to infer units of measure such as <kg/m>, and <N/m^2>. Can you tell me whether that is possible with the Provider product and inverse that you refer to in the source?

I am impressed by all the work done on FSharp.Data.

Not supported currently, that's what's this open issue is about

Is this bit of Freebase code you refer to still available? It would be very very cool if the issue could be solved with a minimum of effort.
