Package Exports

react-csv-downloader/dist/esm/index.js

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (react-csv-downloader) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

React CSV Downloader

A simple react component to allow download CSV file from js object

Installation

npm install --save react-csv-downloader

Usage

Use with children component

import CsvDownloader from 'react-csv-downloader';
<CsvDownloader>
  <button>Download</button>
</CsvDownloader>;

Use without children component

<CsvDownloader text="Download" />

Datas

pass the downloaded datas as a component prop

const datas = [
  {
    cell1: 'row 1 - cell 1',
    cell2: 'row 1 - cell 2',
  },
  {
    cell1: 'row 2 - cell 1',
    cell2: 'row 2 - cell 2',
  },
];

<CsvDownloader datas={datas} />;

Datas (on demand with async function resolver)

pass a function to compute datas to be downloaded

const asyncFnComputeDate = () => {
  // do whatever you need async
  return Promise.resolve([
    {
      cell1: 'row 1 - cell 1',
      cell2: 'row 1 - cell 2',
    },
    {
      cell1: 'row 2 - cell 1',
      cell2: 'row 2 - cell 2',
    },
  ]);
};

<CsvDownloader datas={asyncFnComputeDate} />;

Column

pass the columns definition as a component prop to change the cell display name. If column isn't passed the cell display name is automatically defined with datas keys

const columns = [
  {
    id: 'cell1',
    displayName: 'Cell 1',
  },
  {
    id: 'cell2',
    displayName: 'Cell 2',
  },
];

You can also use the columns definition to set the columns display order
