Simple CSV Editor

A table editor for easily editing and retrieving CSV data.

Demo

Demo page - can be found under demo/index.html

Installation

npm install --save simple-csv-editor

Usage

Here is a basic HTML setup which should cover most needs:

<!-- The element in which the table editor will be displayed -->
<div id="simpleCsvEditor"></div>

<!-- PapaParse CSV parser dependency - very important for the editor to work!
Of course you can also use the library via "npm i papaparse" or download it yourself.
At least the vendored version here guarantees compatibility with the editor. -->
<script src="papaparse.min.js"></script>

<!-- ES module declaration -->
<script type="module">
import SimpleCsvEditor from './simple-csv-editor.js';

// Initializes the editor with config parameters:
// id:        Set according to the editor HTML element's id attribute
// onChange:  This function will be executed everytime a change happens inside the editor.
//            The paramater will contain the current CSV representation of the editor.
// delimiter: If not set it will be auto-detected, you might want to supply the delimiter to get consistent behavior.
const simpleCsvEditor = new SimpleCsvEditor({
  id: 'simpleCsvEditor',
  onChange: (csvData) => { console.log(csvData); },
  delimiter: ',',
});

// Set the CSV data. maybe check out the demo, you might want to set this using a text area or some other way.
simpleCsvEditor.setCsv(`1,2,3,4
one,two,three,four`);
</script>

For all public methods, properties and further constructor config parameters check out src/simple-csv-editor.js - it should be very readable 😜
