<p>Apache Druid (incubating) can ingest denormalized data in JSON, CSV, or a delimited form such as TSV, or any custom format. While most examples in the documentation use data in JSON format, it is not difficult to configure Druid to ingest any other delimited data.
We welcome any contributions to new formats.</p>
<p>For additional data formats, please see our <a href="/docs/0.16.1-incubating/development/extensions.html">extensions list</a>.</p>

<p>Druid supports custom data formats and can use the <code>Regex</code> parser or the <code>JavaScript</code> parsers to parse these formats. Please note that using any of these parsers for
parsing data will not be as efficient as writing a native Java parser or using an external stream processor. We welcome contributions of new Parsers.</p>

<p>If your input files contain a header, the <code>columns</code> field is optional and you don't need to set.
Instead, you can set the <code>hasHeaderRow</code> field to true, which makes Druid automatically extract the column information from the header.
Otherwise, you must set the <code>columns</code> field and ensure that field must match the columns of your input data in the same order.</p>
<p>Also, you can skip some header rows by setting <code>skipHeaderRows</code> in your parseSpec. If both <code>skipHeaderRows</code> and <code>hasHeaderRow</code> options are set,
<code>skipHeaderRows</code> is first applied. For example, if you set <code>skipHeaderRows</code> to 2 and <code>hasHeaderRow</code> to true, Druid will
skip the first two lines and then extract column information from the third line.</p>
<p>Note that <code>hasHeaderRow</code> and <code>skipHeaderRows</code> are effective only for non-Hadoop batch index tasks. Other types of index

<p>ParseSpecs serve two purposes:</p>
<ul>
<li>The String Parser use them to determine the format (i.e. JSON, CSV, TSV) of incoming rows.</li>
<li>All Parsers use them to determine the timestamp and dimensions of incoming rows.</li>
</ul>
<p>If <code>format</code> is not included, the parseSpec defaults to <code>tsv</code>.</p>

<blockquote>
<p>The <em>jsonLowercase</em> parser is deprecated and may be removed in a future version of Druid.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>This is a special variation of the JSON ParseSpec that lower cases all the column names in the incoming JSON data. This parseSpec is required if you are updating to Druid 0.7.x from Druid 0.6.x, are directly ingesting JSON with mixed case column names, do not have any ETL in place to lower case those column names, and would like to make queries that include the data you created using 0.6.x and 0.7.x.</p>
