I can't speak for this lib, but I've had a lot of success with csvkit [0], json2csv [1] and json directly with jq [2].

This is a great list, but IMO lacks the most powerful (but unfortunately unpopular) one:

Apply it first, then do the normal processing with GNU coreutils and you'll cover most use cases.

I've had a good time with it. Fast, portable, feature-rich and well documented: http://csvfix.byethost5.com/csvfix15/csvfix.html

csvkit is awesome. My only complaint was that it correctly parsed a file and left my confused when I had half the number of rows I expected because I didn't realize each row contained a line break.
