Import MS Access to CSV on Mac programmatically

The Official Cohort Default Rates for Schools site has a link on the left to “Download Entire List.” That downloads an Access database file (.accdb). I'd like to have it in CSV (.csv) format.

This answer provides a Windows solution to import Access to MySQL, but ideally, I'd like to have a Unix command-line program, e.g., accdb2csv input.accdb output.csv. Is there anything like that? If not, how do I code that?

Here are some other links I've found:

• http://jackcess.sourceforge.net/

I just released an access2csv program based on Jackess. Code is at https://github.com/AccelerationNet/access2csv, a binary is available at https://github.com/AccelerationNet/access2csv/releases.

so right click rename the file from Aaron.accdb to Aaron.zip and then right click unzip it. Office 2007 / 2010 formats are effectively zipped XML files.

This will give you a bunch of XML that you can easily parse using Excel, or XSL, etc.
