sas7bdat-cli
A fast command-line tool for reading, inspecting, and converting SAS7BDAT files —
the binary on-disk format produced by SAS. It is a self-contained Rust binary built on
the SIMD-accelerated sas7bdat parser: no SAS
installation, no ReadStat, no C toolchain.
Installation
pip install sas7bdat-cli
# or, without polluting an environment:
uv tool install sas7bdat-cli
The wheel ships a single executable, sas7bdat. It is a plain binary wheel
(py3-none-<platform>), so it has no Python version floor and pulls in no
dependencies — Python is only the delivery mechanism.
Rust users can install the same tool from source instead:
cargo install --git https://github.com/tkragholm/sas7bdat-parser-rs sas7bdat-cli
Usage
sas7bdat info data.sas7bdat # columns, types, labels, and a sample
sas7bdat head data.sas7bdat # first rows as a table
sas7bdat convert data.sas7bdat # -> data.parquet (Zstd)
sas7bdat convert data.sas7bdat --out out.csv # format inferred from the extension
sas7bdat convert ./folder --out-dir out # whole tree, mirrored
sas7bdat completions zsh # shell completion script
Run sas7bdat <command> --help for the full options of a command.
